The first 4 characters with the RNS-D I believe. Not sure about the RNS-E.

Yup, that's it. Or do what I did and get a tomtom :)

To be fair, it's quite good at street names.

5 characters.

i.e. DG12 3

People often moan about the fact that it is not 7 character to allow full UK postcode entry.

However the problem is that we're the only country in europe with a 7 character postcode. The rest are 5 character.

So Audi don't feel obligated to make it do 7 character even on the new MMI 3G with HDD nav.
