> Audi can barely handle infotainment that doesn't brick and reboot on a road trip

This is a feature of all recent VAG cars. Nothing quite like your navigation and climate control freezing on a 1000 km road trip but there's no way to reset the computer so you have to wait a hour for it to fully crash and reboot.

If it’s like my 2019 polo, a long (30sec or so) press on the power button on the infotainment console will reboot it.

But yeah, just traded that car in for a Mercedes, and the infotainment is night and day. I basically don’t use CarPlay anymore because the built in stuff actually works better.
