Nimz Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Hi All, I'm new here but would like to know if anyone has heard about Audi having issues with their Phone box fitted on new cars. I have ordered a new A7 which has the Phonebox fitted. However my dealer has told me that on Thursday 19th April Audi UK put a block on all dealers registering new cars with the phonebox fitted. Apparently the LTE booster fitted is illegal due to a change in the law and hence are not registering the car. What the dealers are doing is removing the LTE booster part from the car and saying Audi will be in touch for a recall to get the part fitted once they have a fix for it. Has anyone else heard about this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, having waited 3 months so far, my Q5 is stuck at Emden awaiting this work being performed. I have been given no ETA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitch Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Just ordered an S3 today and heard the same from the dealership, after the deal was agreed... He mentioned it wasn’t a major issue and just needed a quick change before having the car registered, a matter of a couple of days... Was yours sorted by now?

Was yours sorted by now? Apparently the change takes up to 21 days. Mine has been sat at Emden now for about 16 days. Very frustrating.
