Have you figured out how to get the radio text to display?
On my Golf R the radio used to give you the song playing but I have not yet figured it out on the Audi. You can have the radio info up that gives you a full grid view of the show, presenter, previous songs etc but thats it from what i can see.
This really annoys me as well. It's the same on my a4... have to manually slide the wheel to the right and select radio text (or something like that) but gives a button ugly text display with far to much info... don't know how to just get song title and artist!.On my Golf R the radio used to give you the song playing but I have not yet figured it out on the Audi.

Been playing with both the android auto and car play voice features and so far the android voice seems to get my song choices more accurately but carplay looks and feels better.
Also started using the handwriting pad thing... it's actually a lot easier and faster to write letters whilst driving than trying to enter them with the wheel.
Agree on the touchpad it really is impressive.

Jacob/Simon - Have any of you played around with the album art for MP3's yet?
I know in the Golf R it supports 400x400px cover art. Just wondering if you're aware of what the S5 supports?
Oh and does it have both SD and USB for connectivity?
Cheers
I will have a look tomorrow for the USB and SD connections. Think they are under armrest.I know in the Golf R it supports 400x400px cover art. Just wondering if you're aware of what the S5 supports?

When using apple carplay or Android auto you get the album art directly from deezer/amazon/apple music etc... it's pretty smooth and looks good.

Album art works on Spotify via bluetooth
I must stop looking at this thread five times a day, it's really not doing my patience level any good whatsoever.
In the interest of asking a question and simply trying to suck up more information about the S5 could I ask if there are any MPG updates now that the guys that have them delivered started using the car is a little bit more.
Hoping for an average of 25 MPG - that'll do me perfectly.

I too would be interested to see how you guys are getting on with fuel.

My long term average is 18.1 however my journey to work includes either town roads with an average speed of about 14mph or a roads with a very high average speed (the fun way).

Early 30s sat at 70? As long as I can see a 3 on the front on a run I will be happy!On motorway I'm getting early 30s

When did that happen?
This morning, I check it loads every day (addicted) I ordered it early in October so was not expecting this delay. I've emailed the dealer.TomScrut said:
Hmm that's not good. Mine has been at 10th of April for a while now (back from 20th of Feb, then to the 3rd of April) so it will probably cause mine to go back too. Best be a very good car when it gets here!
I'll consider cancelling mine if it is delayed badly as it will cause me issues with no car and also don't believe it's worth waiting 8 months for gatdecore said:
