Default Audi Issues - in for work

Well I have had my 2013 Q5 for about a year and half and had my first issue that required me to bring her in for some work. The MMI control went out, so at least it wasn't a mechanical issue and only ended up being an electrical computer error. The whole MMI screen went black and nothing would work. Brought it in to dealer and they had to order a new MMI control - the box that holds your cd/dvd's, sim card etc portion of the dash. Two days later I was back on the road. The down side of all of this is obviously that was the brains of the car, every setting and saved option has now been re-set to factory settings. Well after the weekend I got everything re-set back to way I like it but for one thing.

Now every time I start the car and drive it for a bit, right before the Google maps comes up it asks me if I want to start a connection and that my provider might charge me for the data. How do I get this warning question not to come up? it never happened before with the MMI.

Within the MMI Menus (I believe under the Telephone grouping) look for the Data Connection settings and for the Establish Connection prompt - select/choose Never (your other available selections here are Ask and Always)

Perfect, thanks for the help. I have never bothered to pair my phone to the car - I'm too lazy so far so I never bothered to check phone settings.
