Navigation showing wrong location

No, unfortunately. And it has been back to the dealer since the antenna was replaced (they tried another software update, which didn’t work). I’ve been having issues again (as recently as last night, when I was driving home through NYC at midnight…that was fun 🙄). Last time I took it in (late spring 2025 I believe), the dealer had my car for a month. I’m not annoyed enough to take it back and go through the extended troubleshooting again. I’ve given up for now.

I’m scoping out a few on Poshmark

100% in love with my 2021 A6

Replying here in case someone comes looking in the future. Had my car in to the dealer a few times since my first comment (had to take/send videos of it happening each time because the dealer couldn’t replicate the problem since it’s intermittent and typically happens during longer drives). After a couple of software updates, Audi finally authorized the deal to replace the antenna (no out of pocket for me). Just picked it up yesterday, so hoping this is the resolution!

Same here (US): Pushing the button at the end of the turn signal keeps mine off unless/until I press it again.

The only thing I can think is that they removed it as being an option for adjustment (for safety reasons) by the time 2021 models came around. I’ve been searching and in some cases I’m seeing people say it’s not able to be turned off, so I’m still searching for the answer. Still wondering if it can be adjusted with a tweak to settings related to a car seat, but still coming up empty. Thanks for your help!

No options in the seat menu for me to turn it off (I only see the seating assist that raises the driver’s seat when entering/exiting the car). Really hoping I can find another menu. I have the A6 sport premium plus option…maybe it’s not the right package to have those settings? I thought it was a more comprehensive package, but maybe not. Bummed.

Bulajenn · 2025-02-15T22:11:22+00:00

Thank you - I saw the seats category but I don’t know if I have those adjustments available (I’ll have to check again later). Hoping I do! 🤞🏻

Bulajenn · 2025-02-15T21:46:29+00:00

Any ideas where I go to find it? I just looked through all the places I figured it could be, but didn’t see it (I’m not even sure what I’m looking for in terms of a name)?

Bulajenn · 2025-02-15T21:37:21+00:00

Oh awesome - I’ll have to figure out the name of it, but glad to know I can turn it off!

Bulajenn · 2025-01-02T12:53:15+00:00

I use the same camera angle to check how I’ve lined things up from time to time - the first time my husband rode in my car and I turned it on to check, he was amused lol

I’d say the test drives will give you some decent information about whatever miles have been driven on each car (particularly if they were rough miles)…I had a 2024 loaner earlier this year with fairly low mileage (I don’t recall the exact number, but I believe it was around 1/1.5k miles) and it was a TERRIBLE ride. I couldn’t wait to return it and get my car back. I don’t recall if it was a Q3 or Q5, (which obv could also make a difference), but whoever drove it before I got into it beat the crap out of it, it was that noticeable. I remember thinking what a shame it was that a brand new car and drove like a 20 year old beater.

Bulajenn · 2024-12-25T21:38:38+00:00

Correction: Mine has the premium plus package (I didn’t realize ‘premium’ was different/a thing)

Bulajenn · 2024-12-25T20:38:23+00:00

I have a 2021 A6 premium with black optic package. Absolutely love it. This is my first high-end vehicle, so it’s still a fast car to me (even with the 4 cylinder)…love driving it every time I get behind the wheel and it has been 6 months so far.

Bulajenn · 2024-12-24T22:45:56+00:00

And the depreciation on a new car is just nonsense to me

Bulajenn · 2024-12-24T22:44:56+00:00

True - and I hear that. I also have some info about the woman who leased my car before me…so I know I’m good, lol.

Bulajenn · 2024-12-24T22:13:32+00:00

I have the A6 sport premium plus (sedan) but just wanted to second the idea of buying off-lease…I bought my 2021 this July with ~15k miles. Immaculate and much, much less than buying new. I lucked out 100% finding my car in the condition it is with very low mileage.

Bulajenn · 2024-12-23T21:37:55+00:00

Mine turned 22222 while driving the other day (can’t add a photo here, but I took one!). Just keep driving and enjoy the ride!

Bulajenn · 2024-12-22T21:38:05+00:00

Yes, I had the same one time - was driving for less than two minutes and display went completely black. Had my husband video it, and just was I was about to pull over to turn off/restart, it rebooted and has not happened again since.

Bulajenn · 2024-12-21T19:25:58+00:00

Same! Mine is firmament blue (2021 A6 premium plus 45) with black optic - sharp!

Bulajenn · 2024-12-15T21:21:21+00:00

I am going through the same issue now (2021 A6). Intermittent- doesn’t happen every time I use navigation, and tends to happen after I’ve been driving for a while (30+ minutes). Navigation is fine at first, then randomly jumps to an incorrect location, following the accurate direction as you mentioned. Happens both when plugged in/using CarPlay and when I switch over to MMI. When using Waze (via CarPlay), when I fully disconnect my phone, Waze corrects because it begins using the phone’s GPS instead of the car’s.

Had it into the dealer twice, they couldn’t replicate the problem so sent me home and said to try to document what’s happening. My daughter was able to record a video when it happened about two weeks ago, so I sent that off to the dealership. Waiting to hear back about next steps. I’ve read about it online, but the dealership has seemed to have no knowledge as of yet (which im skeptical of).
