Important Considerations
- USB Ports: Ensure your Audi TT has two USB ports in the glove box or armrest compartment. CarPlay and Android Auto functionality requires these ports.
- Virtual Cockpit Integration:

- 2016 TT Models Onwards: An additional Virtual Cockpit update might be required to display the Audi Smartphone Interface as a selectable menu option when connected to CarPlay or Android Auto. If you don’t see the option to switch between VC screens and CarPlay/Android Auto, an update might be necessary.
- Coding (Possible): In some cases, coding changes using VCDS or OBD11 might be needed for navigation to be displayed on the virtual cockpit screen.
