Frequently Asked Questions

What does it mean if my Audi connect SOS LED is not green?
If your Audi connect SOS LED is not green, it indicates that the Audi connect services may not be fully activated or functional. This can lead to issues with emergency call services, roadside assistance, and other connected features.
Why are my 2021-2023 Audi connect services not working?
