2011 Q5 Single-CD?
Hi all
I'm new here (Maybe this topic has been discussed in the past. If yes, please forgive me.), and am looking for purchasing 2.0T this year. But I just notice that 2011's Q5 does not have Symphony radio (6-disc CD changer). I am not sure if I could have the special order for that feature? Many thanks in advance for your answers!
Regards
Bubbles

Hi Bubbles:
Firstly, welcome to the forum it's always great to see new members and new Audi owners. There is a wealth of information on this forum particularly in the Q5/Q7 side.
The 2011 Premium and Premium plus 2.0 Q5 has the following:
Audi symphony radio features AM/FM stereo with a six-disc in-dash CD player and one SDŽ card slot with MP3 capability. The Radio Data System [RDS] displays several types of information about FM radio, including station, track and artist. Graduated Audio Level Adjustment [GALA] ensures optimal volume levels as cabin noise increases with speed.
From here, if you want to upgrade you'd have to take the B&O sound system upgrade.
The source of this info is Audi.ca
I am certain folks with the 2011 Q5 2.0t can provide you with more information.

Warcity is right with the info on Audi.ca re: Symphony Radio. Unfortunately some of the info on the Audi.ca site may be outdated or at the very least misleading*. According to the site I should have the standard 6-disc changer with my 3.2 2011 Q5...I don't. Perhaps it's because I got the optional NAV (single disc CD/DVD player) which precluded the 6-disc changer. The NAV does have a fantastic harddrive (40 GB) that I've dumped a ton of music on so I'm indifferent about not having a 6-disc changer.
*one item that's misleading is "real-time traffic" with Navigation package Audi Canada > 2011 Audi Q5 > Q5 Features and Specifications > Options
So check with a dealer and get it in WRITING if not having the 6-disc changer is a deal breaker for you.
Good luck.

Hi LMcQueen
Thanks for your message!
Yes, probably I would also add Navi package, so it sounds like it will only have single disc. But I think that's okay as long as the Navi package brings 40 GB memory where I could dump even more music out there than that 6-disc changer.
Thanks again, LMcQueen!

I have navigation with single cd slot but I haven't been able to figure out how to upload anything to the harddrive. I haven't tried to do it from an SD card but it wouldn't take anything off my CD's or ipod.

I asked the same question to my dealer when I couldn't find the 6 CD changer in the glvoe box.
He printed me an Audi communique about changes between 2010 and 2011 models.
One of the chnages was the 6 CD changer was changed for the 2 SD slots found under the center console DVD reader.
I'll look in my papers and see if I can scan this document for your viewing.

You can't transfer from ipod to jukebox but you can very easily do so using SD. Give it a try.
