Customer States:
There are missing connected vehicle features or functions compared to other Audi models.

Technical Background
The Q4 e-tron is built on the VW MEB (Electric platform) and is limited to the features and functions
developed by VW. This creates a gap in the feature set compared to other Audi e-tron vehicles. Below is a
comparison list of features between the Model Year 2022 Q4 e-tron and the Model Year 2022 e-tron SUV.
Any differences are due to the unique MEB vehicle architecture. There are no plans to implement retrofit
solutions as a future service campaign. If this changes, it will be communicated to the customers and dealers
at the time of release.

Technical Service Bulletin
All Model Year 2022 Q4 vehicles are equipped with Audi connect remote services via the myAudi app. These
vehicles come in two variants.
•

Vehicles with Navigation (PR code 7UG) include the Audi connect services in the MMI (diagnostic address
005F – J794) and the Audi connect remote services controlled by the OCU module (diagnostic address
0075 – J949).

•

Vehicles without Navigation (PR code 7Q0) only include the Audi connect remote services controlled by
the OCU module (diagnostic address 0075 – J949).

Audi connect Backends
The Q4 e-tron communicates to a different Audi connect backend as compared to all other Audi models. This
is important to understand when troubleshooting customer complaints. The Q4 e-tron cannot be compared
to any other Audi model unless it is another Q4 e-tron. When outages are announced by the Audi connect
Technical Support Team, the backend provider will be included in the announcement.
The Q4 e-tron Audi connect backend is provided by a 3rd-party provider.
•

GEN3 - Wireless Car backend.

The Audi connect backend for all other vehicles is provided by AUDI AG.
•
•

GEN1 – MBB Webcenter backend (e.g. MIB1, MIB2 using a removable plastic SIM).
GEN2 – MBB Webcenter backend (e.g. MIB2 & MIB2+ with embedded SIM).

Service
Please inform the customer of the list of features and functions that are available for the Model Year 2022 Q4
e-tron. Please note that some features are planned as enhancements for future model years, but this is
subject to change.

Some clarifications of the services are listed below.
Setting Key User
•

Setting the key user in the vehicle is not possible for Model Year 2022 Q4 due to the limitations of the
vehicle software. The vehicle software will be changed for subsequent model years to allow setting key
users in the MMI.

•
•

•

There is no vehicle code shipped with the vehicle.
It is not possible to order a replacement vehicle code. Any replacement code will not work for setting the
key user via the myAudi app.
Setting the key user is only possible by the dealer using the Customer Registration Application.

Technical Service Bulletin
Removing Key User
•

To remove the key user, the vehicle should be removed from the active key user’s myAudi account, or
the MMI should be factory reset (Please note that the MMI may still indicate the key user is still set in the
vehicle despite it being reset in the Audi connect backend after a factory reset).

Setting a Subsequent Key User
•

To set a new key user with an active key user:
‒ Factory reset the MMI to remove the current key user. (Please note that the MMI may still indicate
the key user is still set in the vehicle despite it being reset in the Audi connect backend).
‒ Register the customer using the Customer Registration Application. This must be done in this order.
‒ Check the myAudi app by refreshing the vehicle information (pull down on the app screen to refresh
the data).

Vehicle Code or Activation Card
•

For Model Year 2022 Q4, it is not possible to order a replacement vehicle code or Activation card.

Remote Charge Planning
•

Setting a future time to ensure the vehicle is fully charged is possible using two methods (same method
as with other Audi models).
‒ Setting manually in the MMI.
‒ Setting remotely in the myAudi app and sending to car via the backend.

•

For vehicles without factory navigation, PR code 7Q0, there is a known vehicle software concern that
causes the time to set for a remote charge timer to UTC (+0) time.

Technical Service Bulletin
•

For example, if the customer sets the charge time to 12 PM Eastern Daylight Time, the MMI will show the
time for 4 PM (+4hrs) and the car will not fully charge until the time listed in the MMI. This is not an issue
when setting the time in the car via the MMI. However, any timer set in the MMI will show the UTC time
in the myAudi app after it has synced to the Audi connect backend.

•

At the start of the new vehicle launch in the USA, the only work around is to ask customers to subtract
the UTC offset time for their time zone when setting the timer via the myAudi app. For example:
‒ Eastern Daylight Time is UTC -4hrs. Thus, a customer wanting to set the timer for 12 PM EDT would
need to set the timer to 8 AM EDT in the myAudi app (EDT changes to Eastern Standard Time is UTC
-5 in the Fall).
‒ Customers can also set the charge time in the MMI using their local time set in the vehicle, but the
time shown in the myAudi app will always be UTC time.
