hi everone and first i would like to say we dont have an A5 but A1 so im sorry if this isnt the place to ask but i am at a loss and any advice help would be greatly appreciated!?, my son came across this webpage AudiEnthusiasts Master and it started the ball rolling
so i emiled them asking for advice but still waiting for a reply but now i realise they are in the usa, so this is the email i sent them.......
"i hope you receive this and could possibly point me/us in the right direction if you would be so kind, so the reason I'm contacting you is I brought my son his first car which is a 2011 A1, the dealer who sold us the car said that the satnav would never work here in the uk because the car came from Japan so my son has lived with it for just over a year now and wasn't bothered by it until recently when he stumbled across your webpage (audi enthusiasts) explaining how to get it to work by changing the firmware ?, so I took your instructions/car to my local garage who do all the repairs and asked them to do it for us but they didn't want to just in case it goes wrong so they activated the green menu for us and said try it yourselves, we had a go and managed to get to step No.8 in your instructions but we are now stuck on what firmware and where to buy it ? if you could please advise ?,"
Can anyone on here help in any way with whether this willl even work or am i wasting my time?... If i am please advise so i can tell my teen its not possible as he is driving me mad now!
thankyou in advance for any replies
