How to check what MMI do I have? MMI 2G, 3G, 3G+ ? – Types of Audi navigation systems

Different types of Audi navigation systems have been found depending on the model, the vintage and the car’s equipment. Most of these systems show the initial screen with the name “Audi Multi Media Interface”, and they have a very similar menu appearance. As a result, they are often considered one and the same system.

Audi has in offer several navigation and multimedia systems, such as BNS 4.x, BNS 5.x, MMI 2G Low / Basic, MMI 2G High, MMI 3G Low / Basic, MMI 3G High, MMI 3G + , Audi RMC, RNS-D, RNS-E, RNS-E 2010, Audi Concert, Audi Chorus, Audi Symphony.

Types of Audi navigation systems – how to distinguish MMI 2G, 3G, 3G +, RMC, Mib?

The easiest way is to check the software version that is loaded in the system. To do this, enter the car menu by pressing the CAR button, then press SETUP or MENU, then select the “Version” submenu and read the value from the line marked with the letters “SW“.

On newest cars there’s a different red engineering menu (REM) access key scheme

In older cars (mostly up to 2016) to enter Red Engineering Menu you can use one of below key shortcuts.

If you see something like this:

Red engineering menu
Red engineering menu

Where is no full firmware version, then you need to exit red engineering menu (same buttons like you enter it)

Go to the main car settings, and try to find Software version information (might be in settings tab)

this should help you with choosing proper firmware version for your car. Any questions? Just ask in comments or contact with us via contact page

Important note about firmware updates and choosing correct firmware.

When you are looking for updates, make sure you are selecting correct one. Check first what firmware you have, look at the beginning of the name, and if you have for example HN+_EU_AU3G_P0432 you need to get newest firmware (which mostly means higher end number) which for this moment for above it’s HN+_EU_AU3G_K0942. Only Audi A6 C7 and Audi A8 D4 in their very first production year had firmware starting from HN+_XX but when looking for updates needs to get HN+R (Audi has change firmware name for A6/A8).

We have created tool which can help you recognise if there is new update for your MMI. Click here to get there.

I have a 2008 A4 with what I believe to be the 2G MMI but m6 System doesn’t show the any of the above codes. When I check the software version I get this:
SW: 0650
HW: H75
Map: 8P0919884_AA_EUW

Is there an update for this or any way to stream music/audio from a iPhone either via Bluetooth or by adding an AMI socket?

Hi,

I have an Audi A4 B8 2009 in Australia.

However I do not have all the tweaks such as the green screen, needle sweep and the awesome mods that can be applied.

Just thought to ask what is the process to have these updated as I have a MMI 3 dashboard.

Thanks,
AK

Hi,

I currently have an Audi A6 C7 (2016) with the following software version MMI MHI2_US_AU57x_P2519. Could you tell me whether I can update the firmware (if so, which new things will be added or just bug fixes?), if I can renew the navigation to latest 2019 version (dealer asks £ 270) and whether it would be possible to add/activate Apple Carplay/Android Auto (dealer told me not possible as ECU isn’t compatible). Car unit has 2 sd card, one SIM card slot and cd opening. Not sure if there’s an HDD in it.

Hello Guys,
I have Audi A4 model 2017 in Egypt.
I received the car with no CarPlay. I am not sure this is a software issue or a hardware issue.
On the screen i can have Bluetooth and play my music but I cannot image my iPhone applications and of course cannot use google maps.
No Audi maps on the car of course.
At the service center they do not even understand what I am asking about.
Can my MMI be upgraded to have this CarPlay operational like any other Audi owner?
