updating my MMI s/w

From what I've found the only thing to not mess with is updating anything with the sound system. Apparently that's how a lot of people end up bricking the system, Bose updates. I too have seen SD cards on EBay, but they mostly seem to be only for the Euro Q7's and no maps.
Perhaps we can get a fund started and pass around the software and maps, so we all benefit and split the cost into peanuts?

what was gained from this update? did it fix anything you were having issues with or improve any behavior? If all we know it just changes a version number I think I'll pass.. Navi updates would be nice tho, mostly for accurate speed limits since they recently seem to be changing frequently on the West side of the country.
The MMI certainly seems faster and more responsive. I've just finished hashing on the maps and will be doing that either today or tomorrow. I tested the code vs. the base and should work...fingers crossed

"Unless you are comfortable with low-level coding, akin to C and are familiar with compiling code"
Now I'm curious: What is the MMI system? Is it some ARM system? Linux-based?

So I found a guy that offered this: 200 includes a custom activator for your vin What do you all think?
I am not familiar with the coding aspect persay, but with instruction I could certainly move through it.
Firmware is k0942_3
Nav is nar 6.16
I can send you everything via
Mail
Or email

If you could direct me with the coding, I would not be scared to implement it, I am just not familiar with it.
I have coded websites, yearsssssss ago and haven't used it since.
It is worth it to me to pay for it, just not the extravagant amount Audi wants!

I think this is plug and play? SD card? DVD?
