Do you still miss your favorite music in the car? And didn't you install an Audi Music Interface (AMI)? The Bluetooth Interface 4202 puts an end to that. Your favorite hits from your mobile phone or streaming service are transmitted to your vehicle's sound system without any annoying cables.
All Audi MMI 3G systems are supported, regardless of whether
- MMI 3G Navigation Basic / High
- MMI 3G Navigation Plus / Touch
Further information on compatibility, year of manufacture and vehicle model will follow below.
The interface emulates a CD changer. MMI 3G systems can only manage one CD changer. Either the Bluetooth Interface 4202 or a CD changer can be operated on this system. If the CDs are close to your heart, simply copy them to your smartphone or cloud and listen to them via Bluetooth.
Due to the full integration into the MMI system, this interface is completely controlled via the MMI system. The track information is shown on the MMI display. An Audi Music Interface (AMI) is not required - but it doesn't bother either.
In addition, the interface offers an analog AUX-In function for other audio Sources.
By the way: Many customers install this interface almost invisibly in the area behind the glove compartment. All connections are easy to reach there.
You can also use this interface in parallel with our Interface Digital radio DAB+ 4502.
Great sound enjoyment! Hissing? Cracking? Crackling? No, thank you!

Generally:
Does the Interface have to be activated / coded?
No. Coding or activation via the vehicle's diagnostic system is not necessary.
Can I also connect my iPhone via Bluetooth?
Yes. All smartphones that use the standardized Bluetooth protocol (Bluetooth 4.0) can be connected.
Can I use the buttons on the radio or the multifunction steering wheel to control the Interface?
Yes, to us for regulating the volume and for selecting the previous or the next track. You can find more details in the instruction guide.
I already have additional devices installed. Can these still be used?
You can connect a variety of systems to the fiber optic circuit.
- AMI interface
- CD changer
- Bluetooth interface
- Interface for digital radio DAB +
It is important that the fiber optic circuit remains closed. For this, we enclose a fiber optic Y cable with every product.
Are there any restrictions to be observed for the Bluetooth Interface 4202?
The Bluetooth interface 4202 for the MMI 3G system emulates a CD changer and is therefore identified as a CD changer by the MMI system. Since the MMI 3G system can only manage a single CD changer, any CD changer that may have been installed must be deactivated.
The Bluetooth interface 4202 can only be operated instead of a CD changer.
What should i choose? CD changer or Bluetooth Interface?
It's a matter of taste. For some, the CD changer is indispensable. They choose the CD changer. Others don't want to do without the new possibilities of Bluetooth and simply copy the CD's onto their smartphone or into the cloud and then have both functions.
Installation:
Where and how is the Interface connected exactly?
The Interface can be connected to the CD changer connection. Alternatively, it can be connected to another interface or directly to the MMI system or to the control unit.
Do I need additional or special tools for installation?
You need the usual tools or electrical tools. Occasionally our removal tools are needed.
