Hello all. New Audi A8 owner as of last Saturday. It's a 2007, purchased from an Audi dealer in Atlanta. Having owned Jaguar, BMW, Lexus, and Mercedes, I'm overwhelmed by how advanced and sophisticated this vehicle truly is. I call it my baby Bentley.
Everything works great, with the exception of Bluetooth. I can get my Blackberry to pair up, and it works just fine. But the phonebook won't integrate, and each time I depart from the vehicle with my phone, it has to be re-paired with the system, meaning I have to select "connect" on the phone and enter the passcode.
The Audi dealer had me do a reset of the MMI today by depressing TEL - Center **** - Upper right soft key at the same time. The reset was done correctly, but still no change with the Bluetooth. I checked using another phone today (Motorola smart phone) and experienced the same thing. My MMI is 3360. Any suggestions?

If you update your MMI software it should improve Bluetooth functionality. The latest North America version is 4610 and you can buy CD's from a dealer for about $20.

pmdeaver, congrats. Are you in Atlanta? I have a issues with my bluetooth. Mine connects and reconnects on an endless cycle. Will upgrade the software to see if it cures it. I'm running 10.7.0 so it's really old.
Mishar, the dealers around here in ATL won't sell us the update and I'm a auto service facility who buys parts from them wholesale.

I have a friend at a local Audi dealer here, so I'm hoping I won't experience the same problem.

Will that have any impact on my navigation (in a positive way)? I noticed that my neighborhood doesn't show up (which was built in 2004). Was wondering if I need to buy a new navi disc or seek some alternative. I can't access the disc to see which version it is. Apparently it's locked so I can't remove it...

The first step in diagnosing this problem would be to run a VCDS scan and see what errors, if any, pop up in the "Address 77: Telephone" section. You also want to check the "Revision:" to verify that it is not "000000".
You should also consider testing BT with different phone to see if the odd behavior is unique to the Blackberry.

I had problems with the BT module in my 2007 A8 not syncing the Phonebook, and ultimately had to replace the BT module.
