Does anyone know if updating firmware during a long drive is a smart idea to do?
it can be done, but I would not recommend it.
the point is, you don't want to interrupt the process, not by loss of battery power, nor by a hick-up in the power, when you have to start the engine again.
I have always updated mine, with the engine running, while the car was on the driveway.

Ahh Great! I can see 2 different versions and haven't got a clue what the difference is! Would you know if I need:

8R0 906 961 EB – HN+_EU_AU3G_K0900 (A4/A5/Q5/Q7) SVM: 3GPEU900AU3G
OR
8R0 906 961 FC – HN+_EU_AU3G_K0942 (A4/A5/Q5/Q7) SVM: 3GPEU942AU3G

And what is the difference? I assume one is just a later version? Cheers!
I asked Congo the same and his answer is: Not much, you wont see it in the MMI. Some minor stability fixes that most of the users never had problems even with older version than K0900.

I have now updated To FW k0942 and map 6.24.2 2017 I followed update instruction from Congo.
I removed the old map and didn`t get fault code 03175.
The fault code I got was 03276,03677 and 03623 the two first was gone after generated new svm code.

Code 03623 was ok after using FSC remove, when I inserted the SD Card I didn`t get the same picture that are shown in the instruction . after inserted card it shows "start script" and when finished
"End script" after that I reboot and it was ok. see attach.

So, after following the first post (Massive thanks @congo) almost all is working!

The only issue I have is no online traffic...

I have the VIN from the donor car - Is there any way at all to set it in the MMI so the Audi servers will accept the connection?

Edit/ I create an account on the myaudi site and enter the VIN but obviously that does not match what the MMI returns after I enter the PIN to get license.

Thanks

You just need to email connect.license@audi.de and give them your vin number and ask them to extend your traffic license.

My traffic license had expired when I bought my Q7 but emailed that address and within 2-3 days my license was reactivated. They extend it by 1 year. Just repeated each year.

They didn't reply to my email to say it was done but I just checked my car each day and it just started working.

Thanks but the problem is that I have retro-fitted a 2014 Q5 MMI+ into my 2011 S4.

I create an account with the Q5 VIN OK but the MMI forwards my current VIN when I try to get a license...

I need a bit of @congo wizardry in this case...
