NiallO58 Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 (edited) I have purchased an audi A5 but i did not get the sat nav, instead i opted for the SD card slot as i prefer to listen to music. My question is it possible to purchase a CD or SD card with nav for this so i can switch between music and nav or do you have to have the HDD for any type of nav?

Chillihead Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Hi I am confused! Do you have satnav installed? If you do, then you will already have satnav, however, if not, you will need the unit, new buttons etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiallO58 Posted May 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 No there is no sat nav installed. I was wondering is there a way to run simple sat nav software/program from an sd card or cd rom without having to intall the HDD navigation Unit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian_C Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 Almost posted in this thread the other day, I presumed it was a piss take. You are asking if you can put a tiny SD card into the dash to give you sat nav? Have you not spotted you are missing a whole raft of buttons and controls behind the gearstick compared to most other A5s.....

Tipex Posted May 2, 2013 Report Share Posted May 2, 2013 I think he has hoping for an alternative option to the Audi Nav, and that he could load a nav programme onto the system, like you can a lot of aftermarket stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NiallO58 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Exactly what Tipex said, i am not looking for a specific Audi Nav System just any nav that would work on the Audi A5 display on screen on the dashboard and then use something like the buttons on the centre console to control the nav Pic from: 2012 Audi A5 Radio Interior Photo | Automotive.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Which buttons were thinking of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tipex Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Unfortunately I really can't see it working, I'm sure the system has the hardware capable of running a nav programme, but you can't access the operating system to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Posted May 3, 2013 Report Share Posted May 3, 2013 Which buttons were thinking of? Why use 6 words when you can use 5? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
