OBD q4

Bug Reports

Hello ABRP Support,

I am trying to connect an OBDLink CX to ABRP on my Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron 45, model year 2024.

The OBDLink CX works correctly with the vehicle and with other OBD applications, but in ABRP the OBD/BLE option does not appear under Live Data.

For my Audi Q4 profile, the only available methods are:

  • Enode

  • Tronity

  • Generic

  • OBD PID Editor

There is no direct OBD/BLE connection option.

I also found reports from other Audi Q4 users describing the same issue. Some users and also me reported that if they temporarily select a Volkswagen ID.4 profile, the OBD/BLE option appears and the OBDLink CX can be detected, which suggests that the hardware and Bluetooth connection are working and that the limitation may be related specifically to the Audi Q4 vehicle profile.

Could you please confirm:

  1. Is direct OBD/BLE support currently available for the Audi Q4 e-tron?

  2. Is the OBDLink CX officially supported with the Audi Q4 e-tron?

  3. If not, is support planned?

  4. Is there a recommended workaround using the OBD PID Editor?

  5. Since the Q4 e-tron shares the MEB platform with the VW ID.4, could the same OBD implementation be enabled for the Audi Q4 profile?

Vehicle:
Audi Q4 Sportback e-tron 45 RWD
Model year: 2024

Phone:
iPhone / iOS

OBD adapter:
OBDLink CX Bluetooth LE

I can also provide screenshots of the ABRP Live Data screen and vehicle profile if needed.

Thank you.

    Hello @ABRP User #2885510,

    To answer your questions:

    • It is not supported for your specific vehicle.

    • Depending on which model that has OBD support, then the OBDLink CX is supported and will be with yours once the OBD connection is available.

    • Without us adding the access to OBD connection, then you will not be able to make anything yourself to establish a connection.

    • If you can give us more information regarding the MEB platform between VW ID.4 and Q4 E-tron, we can look into it and see how this would work in ABRP as we cannot give an immediate answer to this.

    Let me know if you have more question that needs to be answered!
