My A6 MMI has gone dead and Audi does not want to honor the warranty ( 4 yrs of 50K) . They state that something was spilled,but nothing was> I saw the part, it was clean then then they changed the story and said there was dust and hair in it. It cost $1400. Any others w/ malfunctioning MMI that Audi does not want to honor??

Same story with my 2009 Q7. The MMI started to reboot on it's own one day. It got worse and now only stays on for a few seconds, then off for a minute - very annoying.

The dealer said there looks like something was spilld - well that happened 6 months ago. I hardly believe i's related now and why would Audi engineers install an open computer, so susceptible to small spills right next to several cup holders? I bet they're actually protected (at least partially) from spills but they feel they can use center console spills as an excuse to charge another $900 to repair. Same story with my 2009 Q7.
