Symptoms
Owners may observe the message "Loading system. Please wait..." displayed on their MMI screen after driving their Audi for an extended period. When this message appears, the MMI system's display functions become inoperable, though audio output continues to work, and controls on the multifunction steering wheel remain functional.
This message typically persists for the entire drive cycle until the vehicle is stationary and unused for an extended period. The MMI system usually returns to normal operation the next time the vehicle is started. It is important to note that if the "Loading system. Please wait..." message only appears briefly during system startup, this specific TSB does not apply.

This software anomaly causes the Audi MIB3 loading system to display the "Loading system. Please wait..." message under specific conditions related to extended driving.

The resolution for the "Loading system. Please wait..." issue involves updating the MMI software. This procedure is detailed in a separate Technical Service Bulletin, TSB 2076404, titled "00 Service info: deployment overview for customer service packages MLB and MQB for MIB3/connectivity box." Dealership technicians will follow the instructions in TSB 2076404 to install the necessary software update to address the Audi MIB3 loading system problem.
