    How to check number of satellite on MMI 3G+? Sometimes GPS takes too long to locate, and I would like to know the current satellite number, thanks!

    Go to Route and then select the first entry in the list which is your current position. On the next screen if you scroll to the top you see the number of satellites.

    BTW, you probably need your MMI head unit replaced (5F module). This is a known hardware flaw that cause it to not acquire any satellites when emerging from underground structures for example. Audi redesigned the hardware to fix the issue. I had the problem in my RS5 and they replaced the 5F a little over a year ago. It's been fine since then.
