i have an 07 a8L and am getting this issue where the stereo cuts in and out every minute or so. My phone wont connect.
I did the optical test on my VAG and found the same error view as shown for a defective phone module. THANK YOU ALL!!
I just need to get a loopback connector to do a final test and ensure this is for sure the part i need.
THIS FORUM IS SICK!!

I save this from back in the day. You may want to save your own copy. Not copyrighted that I see, but this stuff seems to disappear over time. Lots of details that describe very specifically what in unique to a W12. The later 2006 one also goes over the changes from 2005.

I am more and more educated about this car that i am madly falling in love with. My phone thingy still dazzles me though. I am afradi to buy the wrong thing and get stuck with it. My car has the
This picture show what I have. Now my question again is this: Am i limited to certain phones or can I adapt my Motorola to work with this cradle? I don't mind to buy another phone specifically for the car. As long as I am sure it will work. So with the phone, will I also have to buy an adapter to make it seat in the adapter in the picture?Where can I get one without going to the Audi stealership?

Which phone exactly you want to use with cradle?

And...why the cradle?
It's more a novelty. Hassle to put phone in, and then to remember to take phone with you. BTDT. Only advantages are charging and tying into antenna. It still uses bluetooth (only) to talk to the car electronics, and even in my W12 with acoustic glass and some tint, zero signal issue with a std iPhone in my pocket other than when I am in remotest areas...where there is no good signal anyway.

Currently I own the Motorola XT928 and Huawei P6. If I can get it to work with either, I am set. To your question on the bluetooth. No. I tried to get to the pairing , but coultn't figure it out.

There is no point in having a cradle if you can't pair Bluetooth. Start your car. Right away go to your phone Bluetooth menu and try to pair it. Try 0000 or 1234.
