Basically: I bought the adapter to 20pin connector, ignorant that for my Audi A4 B8 of 12pin (Quadlock) connector is needed. Since I came when installing it only. So consider as a prospective customer, please advance which port you have.
I got me a 12pin connector concerned, which allows installation worked first. It is also important that you firmly makes the slack ground wire to the metallic housing Radio, otherwise nothing works. I just have it in Radioverschraubung with screwed.
The adapter was then supplied with power (illuminated LED) and I was able to easily connect via Bluetooth with my phone him. Unfortunately then still went nothing, I could press the CD button on the radio whenever I want to, because there was no music on the adapter. Neither streamed from your phone even from infected USB stick.
I researched then at length whether the adapter must be otherwise activated, or if you only need to activate the CD changer mode on the radio and then came finally some postings of other pain-ridden to the realization that my radio is not with this adapter is compatible!
So very important: For owners of newer Audis have a chorus built 3 Radio: While radio has the necessary ports on the back, but lack the necessary internal changer control on this adapter could be addressed! The Chorus 3 So with this adapter NOT COMPATIBLE !!
If who interjects that the chorus is 3 also not listed in the compatible radios: Yes, true, but I had just no idea what Chorus I because it is outside Chorus only version with no name on it. Moreover, I could see that nowhere Chorus I've accurately. Only when the research I came to the conclusion that there must be a Chorus 3 well.
Now if you as a Chorus 3 has, as you upgraded Bluetooth, Aux-in, SD slot, USB for? Two possibilities: either very expensive and complex to another Audi Radio Installation (Concert, Symphony, ...) or you can use an FM transmitter. Anders goes unfortunately apparently net when Chorus 3 ...
