Before I upgraded the navigation voice only came out of the front left speaker... now it comes out of all of them??? Do I need to re-vag it and set the left hand side driver? Also, the radio "tags" (station name and artist/song) are no longer showing...

The radio tags is something I have noticed as well. Probably Audi thought it's to much information for American customers. :cry:
ok, but does your nav voice come out of the front left speaker?
Can't reallt say because I have it turned off all the time. But I will check it out the next time I'm in the car...
i noticed that the nav lady's voice comes out of other speaker now too.. i havent checked the VAG coding yet..
You need to change the coding using VAG-Com.

An excellent site to look at for all coding issues is http://de.openobd.org/audi/a4_8e.htm

Regarding the location of the voice guidance the relevant section is this:
de.openobd.org said:
Channel 136 (navigation references)

Adjustment of the route guidance instructions to the driver position.

00005 - Left steering wheel (USA)
00013 - Right steering wheel (USA)
02632 - Right steering wheel (Europe)
03226 - Left steering wheel (Europe)
So you need to change the value in channel 136 to 5 - which will move the voice to the front left speaker.

I'm in the UK so I use 2632, our friends in Europe should use 3226, and I don't understand why there is a value for RHD US (13)!
i tried to enter channel 136 and it said "must be 2 digit number"..

i will check it again..

Just make sure you select control module 56 - Radio first, this is where you'll find chanel 136. It should however work under control module 37- Navigation as well.

That probaly means you're using an old version of VAg-Com - if I remember correctly you need a version later than 404 to allow 3 digit channel numbers to be entered.
