91 MMI3G: iPhone is not supported or intermittently disconnects when connected to the Audi Music Interface (AMI) 91 17 67 2049742/1 December 12, 2017. Model(s) Year VIN Range Vehicle-Specific Equipment A6, Q7 2009 - 2011 All With MMI3G with AMI A4, A5, and Q5 2009 - 2012 All With MMI3G with AMI Condition Customer states: When using the Audi Music Interface (AMI), an error message appears “Device not supported”. The customer may also state the phone connects momentarily and disconnects or only stays connected when the battery of the iPhone is fully charged. The customer is using an iPhone 6, 6s, 7, 8, or X (including plus models) along with the MMI3G infotainment system. Technical Background With the introduction of iOS 10 in September 2016, Apple introduced a new charging strategy which limits the phone’s ability to connect to accessory devices that do not provide enough charging current. With this change made by Apple, the Audi Music Interface no longer meets the charging requirements mandated by iOS 10 (or higher). This only applies to customers using iPhone 6, 6s, 7, 8, or X models (including plus models). Production Solution Not applicable. Service Please inform the customer there currently is no available service solution due to this change in Apple’s iOS software. If a service solution becomes available, this bulletin will be updated. As an option, the customer can purchase an unofficial A2DP Bluetooth adapter that connects directly to the Audi Music Interface via the Apple 30-pin connector and allows for wireless streaming of music to the MMI.

The customer will need to ensure the iPhone stays paired to the MMI and also to the music adapter at the same time in order to retain the hands-free telephone feature. The following are the unofficial A2DP Bluetooth adapters which have been tested by Audi of America to work in certain vehicles. As an added benefit, all adapters utilize the latest A2DP protocol which allows the MMI to display music files which are stored on the phone. Additionally, the user can manually select individual songs directly in the MMI. All adapters are available via the Amazon.com or other 3rd party online retailers.
