Anyone else had a problem with the MMI circuit board on center console? My wife spilled lemonade on the controls just beneath cupholder and it fried the circuit board. Dealership won't cover as it was "external source", however pretty crappy design in my opinion to have a circuit board under a cupholder. Cost upwards of $2K to fix!

I have some pictures on how you can remove the controller if you want them; just drop me an email. There's also a guy who's selling (or was selling) an MMI controller from an A6 Boston area craigslist...if it's the same part number, it'd be a cheaper option than at the dealer.

these are the thungs worth knowing and the main reason for visiting this board - I must say though, pity it has to happen to one of us.

much like a keyboard protector?
