According to the dealer Audi ditched the 19 speaker option which included the pop up tweeters, something to do with getting hold of components to meet production schedules. Mine was a MY22 model, which when I had delivered late January 2022, I did not have the pop ups in mine having selected the C&S pack coming with only 16 speakers in total where as the 2021 registered MY19 model I test drove did.

The pop ups are on the advanced B&O sound system, there's 2 versions of it.  The Vorsprung had advanced, the S Line and Black only has the Standard B&O.

depends on your chosen spec I went for everything this was missing out of the packs.

- Soft close feature on doors

- phone wireless charging pad

- individual tyre pressure monitoring 

- heated steering wheel

- adaptive cruise control 

- integrated toll module

there is a load of others but I can’t remember, them specifically. 

 

 

What actual model did you choose? 

Vorsprung is the only one in the range with heated steering wheel.

Even if you pick all packs on the S line or black edition.  

I went for the black edition with comfort and sound pack.  Only thing I didn't get that I was expecting was the phone box.  I have soft close doors, individual tyre monitor and adaptive cruise control.  I didn't choose the other packs so wouldn't have the toll module and the charge pad comes with the phone box, which seems to be in short supply so it's only on the Vorsprung and etron models now from what I can see.

That must have been frustrating and annoying but glad you've finally got it now. Cheeky of them to deliver it with 138 miles though!  
I have the exact same issue with the Audi connect but haven't done anything about it yet. 

Update on the Audi Connect licences.

Visited the dealer as per the advice from the Audi Digital Services team, dealer not sure what to do but messaged the Audi Sales office in the first instance who pointed her back to the Audi Digital Services team full circle and the following morning I got a pushed update to update the licenses.

Attached are before and after shots. 

So I've had the car for a week now, and I can say I'm impressed with it.

The TFSI is a lot smoother than the C7 TDI I had previously and it responds really quickly.

The tech is crazy better than the C7.

My single gripe is the removal of the Audi phone box, with the wireless charger, but it's not a big gripe.

Regards the Audi Connect license,  Audi Digital say it needs a visit to the dealer to rectify,  they've hooked me up with my nearest dealer as the one I got the car via is a lot further away.

Finally got it delivered on Tuesday of this week, what a fiasco. 

Car has been in UK since 15th July.  Finance team screwed up paperwork and took them a week to sort it meaning there was no time to arrange delivery before I went on holiday on 23rd. Came back on 3rd August with an arranged delivery date of 4th. Got a call on 4th to say it had a warning light whilst loading for delivery and it was being sent to inspection centre. Part needed ordering came last Thursday 11th and Delivery arranged for Tuesday 16th.

It was !Removed! filthy when it came off the transporter,  and had 138 miles on the clock, cheeky buggers must have driven it to the inspection centre and never bothered to clean it afterwards. I've had second hand cars delivered in better condition.  No covers on the seats or steering wheel, Still had the drivers mobile devices listed in the MMI too.

Anyway it's all cleaned up now and only issue I have is the Audi Connect doesn't seem to have activated correctly,  licence is showing as Demo till December 2023, but I should have a 36 month subscription.  I've raised a ticket with the digital support team.

Yeah I experienced delays all kinds of delays too. Car got to the dealership 27/06 but it only got to me on 22/07. All I can say is.....it was worth the wait! Let us know how you get on! 

Glad you are enjoying it, I can't wait,  still missing my old A6 since selling it last month and this one is an upgrade from my last one.

Hi mate - just got an email notification as I've posted in this thread before. 

I ordered a 40TFSI Black Edition with C&S in tango red on 13th November 21 and picked it up on the 9th April 22 (4 months ago!). Seems like you guys got the slow boat?

Funnily enough the day I picked it up I ordered an RS6. Currently build week 48 this year. Absolutely love the A6 - its great - but given the shift to electric etc I though its now or never to get my dream car!

You might get it for Christmas then, what a present that would be.

Had mine for 2 weeks now and absolutely loving it. Any update on yours? 

Arrived at the dealer over a fortnight ago,  but finance team made a mistake on the docs that took a week to fix, and then I was on holiday for a week, so it's getting delivered tomorrow 🙂

Any news yet? After chasing Audi they’ve now said my car is confirmed for production for week 23 which is w/c 6th June

Update - Dealer contacted me today to say it's built and being loaded at Port of exit.  Should have it in 2-3 weeks time.  Have you heard anything yet?

I got build week 24 w/c 13th June confirmed only last week. Sold my A6 C7 Exec last week to Cazoo after paying it off.  Got a good deal with the current price of 2nd hand, made a tidy sum versus what my settlement fee was.

No news yet, I'll give them time and message when we go back in the new year.

Will let you know in about 4 to 6 months if the pandemic hasn't claimed us both by then 😷

Think I found the answer here.

https://corporate.bang-olufsen.com/en/partners/automotive/audi/a6

Looks like there's a 16 speaker Premium B&O and a 19 speaker Advanced.

Been through the configurator from the A6 to the RS6 and the comfort and sound on all A6 models only offers 16 speaker Premium.

The Advanced is offered on the A8 and its 5 grand, so probably not is the answer, just need to wait and see, picked the pack for the 360 camera and parking assistant so not overly fussed other than it looked funky.

Does anybody have the Comfort and Sound pack with the Bang and Olufsen sound upgrade.

Does it have the pop up tweeters?

I can see from some owner demonstration videos on Youtube that they are not there, and some videos they are.

The attached pictures from the latest UK configurator show them when selected, pictures attached are with and without comfort and sound pack attached.

This video shows them but is from some time ago.  I've ordered a new black edition with C&S and expecting it spring/summer of 2022.

Any pictures?

Did you have to remove any trim to hide wiring or does it push in behind the trim ok with a soldering aid or similar?

I'd like to know this too for the C8

I had the UTR on my C7 (it was a dealer freebie offer when I purchased) it's not the best so didn't go for it on my C8 order as it was a lot more expensive than other technologically superior dashcams.

Will go for a blackvue or similar.

I just ordered 40 TFSI black edition with comfort and sound pack - Tech pack is no longer an option and comes as standard on all A6 models now.

Comfort and sound comes with advanced key / B&O sound / 360 camera's / Park assist plus / extended LED pack.

I have the 2018 2.0 TDi Ultra SE Executive - not S Line and it came with heated seats.  Windscreen is not heated though you wont need it - the blower that comes on when you select the windscreen button clears it super quick.

I had to get this done under warranty on my C7 - Audi Assist team talked me through getting to the red pull cord while I was in the petrol station, I pulled it and came right out in my hand and no flap open 😂.

They came and picked it up at mine next day and I got it back a couple days later - they forgot to put the sticker on the inside of the new flap parts (obviously had to break the old one off and replace it) and sent me the sticker in the post to stick it on myself.

I ordered the same last month and was given an estimated delivery month of July 22. What's been your experience with the 40TFSI? Enjoying it? I'm worried it may be underpowered

I just ordered the 40TFSI black edition with C&S pack in black last week (16th Dec) and also says in the order form July, although the Agent quoted May/June.  I've had the 2018 C7 SE Exec 40TDI for last 3.5 years and have loved it.  Be interesting to hear when you have your build week confirmed.
