Audi Music Interface – Bluetooth Adapter

Feb 26

To make our lives even a little easier Audi has brought out their version of Bluetooth MP3 interface technology. This system works very nicely; if you have a Bluetooth compatable MP3 device, it will work for you. After you have updated the software on your MMI system with the provided flashdrive you can then attach the USB adapter and you are connected. Without ever having to physically connect your music device to your Audi, you can link the music right through your in vehicle audio system. This is a very cool innovation that is sure to add to your entertainment experience!

    Hi Scott,
    I have an Audi 2010 A4 Avant, with AMI.
    I have a T-Mobile MyTouch 3G phone.
    I bought the mini USB to AMI adapter, and the device is not recognized.
    It works great with my Apple devices using the Ipod to AMI adapter, but not sure why this one does not work.
    My goal is to run Pandora audio or any audio for that matter via my MyTouch (Android).
    Any suggestions?
    I also have Audi Bluetooth which works great with this same phone.

    So I have a 2011 Audi a5 with ami but no navi. I am told that this dongle will work with this system by an eBay seller. Is my system a 3G mmi or does that only apply to navi equipped vehicles. Thanks

  • Mike Burns

    I just got one of these, and run it in my 2010 A4, with MyTouch 3G, via Bluetooth.
    I can not figure out why Pandora skips though, is it the signal from the Audi telephone Bluetooth? How often do you actually answer these questions?

    I just got one and it works, however it skips when streaming Pandora, which I trying to figure out. I have A4 Avant with AMI (Concert) and handsfree Bluetooth. It workd playing music from phone directly (MP3′s) but streaming skips, which is killing me, as my goal is to stream Pandora.

  • Brodiepollard

    If i get this bluetooth adapter, can i stream pandora AND take calls?

  • http://www.surfsidesports.com Mike Burns

    I was unable to do both, it takes 2 separate Bluetooth parings at same time, and it seems they conflict when running both.
    I suppose you can take calls but not through the Audi Hands Free Bluetooth.

    Scott. Help! I have just got a 2010 A4SE with mmi ami and nav. I have tried two cables to attach my iPhone to the media but it keeps saying cable or device not recognised. Have you any idea what cable I need or how I can find out which one I need. Thanking you in advance.

  • Cvfourth

    I have a 2011 Audi a5 with ami (NO NAVI) an bought this kit. Works flawlessly! It does not skip everyfew seconds as some people suggested. It switches between the car Bluetooth for calls and the Bluetooth adaptor for music automatically. Audio quality is better than fm but not as good as Sirius. The secret to making it work is: disconnect all Bluetooth devices, then pair the adaptor BEFORE pairing the car phone Bluetooth. When I did it the other way around it would pair but no sound would stream to the adaptor. Oh btw. When streaming pandora or YouTube through the adaptor you can use the steering wheel controls to advance and repeat songs although of course the actual song title does not appear. Good luck and have fun. Reportedly this will not work if you have navigation installed (3G mmi) but will work if you have no navigation but have ami only

  • Asd

    Hello Scott – would you please help me with this? So I just got an 2011

    I just bought a 2007 A4 with the mmi/navigation/ 6 disc CD changer in the glove box and the bose sound system. It does not have an iPhone hook up, and I am wondering if this device would work with my car and playing music through my iPhone 4.

    Hi,

    I have just purchased a A5 2.0 TDI S Line.  Unfortunately despite have the hardware for a connection to a mobile phone on the dash board the car is not blue tooth enabled.  Is it just a case of obtaining the correct software and installing it via the SD card reader or is a special adaptor required?  Please advise. If anyone can help I would be very grateful.

    Regards

    Hi, I have a 2008 Audi TT Premium package, with a 2G MMI. I tried a FIPO bluetooth adapter that does a2dp. It pairs and connects with my phone (DroidX) but the stream gets interrupted every 5-8 seconds. I’m wondering if this would work for me, or would it also skip like the previous adapter i tried?

    video can be watched on the MMI 3G screen of your Q5 from a DVD only. It does not have codecs to decode your AVIs from your SD card…

    Hey Everyone, I’m hoping someone can help me out.

    I just tried to connect the Bluetooth adapter to my 2012
    Audi Q5, and the cable works just find if I test it against a USB device, and
    my phone pairs just fine with the Bluetooth adapter, but the Bluetooth module
    will not connect to my MMI.

    The software update isn’t recognized, and reading
    the documentation, what I have as a software version number looks very
    different than what the PDF documentation shows it should be.

    I’m starting to wonder if the software in my Q5 too new for device.

    Has anyone else been successful in connecting this device to a 2012 Q5?

  • Sarah Carkeek

    weird

  • bschafer

    Just purchased new A4 and got the bluetooth adapter kit. 

    I got it because I would like to play music from Spotify from my iphone4 – the dealer provided me with this kit as an alternative (i can take calls and listen to Spotify) – if you plug the phone in using the wired AMI cable the car hijacks the iPod and any other music source is interrupted after about 2 seconds of play.

    The problem is that the sound quality is horrible (trebly hiss during most songs), and it cuts in and out causing skips in the tracks. Has anyone else experienced this? I feel like I’ve tried everything and it seems like an oversight that the sound quality would be so horrible and passed factory testing.

    Perhaps there is some other interference going on?

    I’m lost and any advice would be greatly appreciated!

  • Sirhc1184

    same here. I think I’m going to try the cable though

  • Waterscape

    Hi!

    Would this work on a 2011 A5 SB? According to audi it should only work on MMI fitted before oct. 2008

    Where can Ipurchase an audi music interface bluetooth for my 2011 A4 T2.0

  • erock

    Can confirm with a 2012 A5 (NO NAV, but came with AMI iPod cable) that this Audi Bluetooth adapter works fine with my HTC Evo. When I use Spotify, I (very rarely) get skips at the beginning of a track.  I have not investigated it further as it has not bothered me enough to do so.  I have the 3.5mm AMI adapter too, and this does not sound quite as good, but good enough for me to use it as the primary mean of listening to my music.  I can keep the phone in the center console and it can charge with my car charger now. And yes, I can use the steering wheel or dash controls to skip songs within a playlist, but have to use the phone to switch playlists as far as I can tell… Overall, very happy with the purchase. 

  • Thegritt2000

    I have a 2010 Q5 with MMI. I would love to listen to Spotify in my car. Would this bluetooth adapter do the trick? Any help would be awesome. Thanks.

  • Weinstp

    Will this work with 2011 Audi S4, with AMI/Nav?

  • James1UIUC

    Have a 2010 Audi Q5 with Nav MMI 3G… looking for a wireless solution to stream Pandora.   Any help? Workarounds? Success stories????

  • Dan Matiesanu

    bluetooth is cool, but what about android? is AMI able to read music from an android device? I suppose it should be able, by using the device as an external hard-disk. If that would work, one could pop a 500gb Archos android tablet in the car and have it sync wirelesly with the music collection on the home pc while the car is parked in the garage…now, THAT would be way cooler.

    I have a 2010 Audi TT S Line Package with Symphony Stereo with Bose and Blue Tooth. My car is missing an Ipod jack and I want to install one that will work through my steering controls. Can you suggest something that will work. The dealership is not finding anything.

    Hello from Norway.
    Just recived a new Audi A4 with MMI 2G and Audi music interface, and bluetooth for the phone. It is not possible to stream audi music from any phone by the  bluetooth ?
    My Audi dealer say that this bluetooth adapter for music interface 4F0 051 510J will not work for my model, because my car dont use Can Bus any more.

    I realy hope that there is a Bluetooth that i can put on my Audi, so i can stream audio from my Iphone, and Samsung phone

  • Nick W.

    Can anyone comment about success using this Bluetooth adaptor with an 2012 Q5 with the AMI input?

  • r0b0_x

    I too have a 2011 A4 Prem+ without  MMI (No Nav).  Just Concert stereo and AMI.  I didn’t see an answer below.  Will this work in my car?   I called my dealer, I called Audi-Collection.com and cannot find a definitive answer.  It doesn’t seem to help to know if this works in anything other that what I specified above.  Anyone?

  • Alp

    2010 Audi Q5. Bluetooth adapter works fine with iPhone (all bluetooth enabled models) except next/previous function. Now using it with Samsung Galaxy Note. Sound is good but play/pause control from steering wheel does not work properly. Music stops for a few second then starts by itself. Same story when I switch-off the ignition. With iPhone music stops (and stays that way) but with Android it stops and starts again by itself. Not a huge deal but an inconvenience. Any ideas?

  • Sree

    I bought a Q7 Premium S-line, 2008 with MMI and when I connect my iphone 4 to the provided cable, it streams pandora or other music apps in addition to playing my native music from the phone.
    I am wondering how one would connect Android ph to the Car as my wife uses Android and she uses Q7 primarily. 

  • gianca11

    I have a 2005 A6 with AMI installed connected to an iPod. Bluetooth
    works for my telephone, but not streaming music. Can the Bluetooth
    adaptor be added with disconnecting my iPod from the AMI?r comment here.

  • Shiva8003

    Do I have to use “my phone” to change songs? Or can I just use button on the steering wheel to change songs and volume?

1. Performance

Every part in the machine counts.

With our vehicles being developed from the ground up around the world famous & award winning Quattro All-wheel drive, it is no wonder we are the leader in performance.

With countless victories and developments in Le Mans, Rally racing, Pikes Peak, and touring car championships, we build the most competitive All-wheel drive cars in the world. If you are looking for that unfair advantage, welcome to Audi, you have found it.

Available with technical advancements such as side guard head protection, Side Assist, adaptive headlights, three point safety belts and many other award winning safety systems as well as L.E.D lighting.

3. Design

Everyone wants to look good right?

Bold dynamic lines with moving surfaces, coupe like design and an aggressive stance on the road whether moving or standing still.

Audi has set itself apart from the rest of the industry with driver oriented cockpits and the leader of interior craftsmanship, materials and fit and finish. Keep in mind our extensive use of aluminum, space frame technology and low center of gravity give you that true Audi experience inside and out.

Sometimes abundance is not enough.

If you want it, Audi has it. And if you have heard of it, it is most likely an option. Audi builds the most versatile cars in the world. Four door sedan or sport back, Coupe or Sport utility vehicle, big or small, front wheel drive or Quattro, gas fuel or diesel - and you still have to pick a color.

We build vehicles that will truly win races and pick up the groceries on the way home. If you let an Audi tell you it's story, it will never disappoint or disconnect you from the experience.

5. Value

Yes, fair value exchange does exist.

Whether you go with a new Audi and get a 4-year 50k mile warranty, or the certified pre-owned Audi with the most comprehensive 300 + point inspection and up to 6 years, 100k miles, you will not only get the best car on the market,
you will gain piece of mind!

And really, you can't put a price on that.
