Solutions for CarPlay having no sound: 1. Check the frequency: Static noise indicates that the car radio has detected the frequency. 2. Check the status: Verify whether it is in play mode or pause mode. 3. Check the volume: Not just the car, but the MP3 player also has volume controls. 4. USB drive: Insert a USB drive into the car MP3 player. The MP3 player should only play music from the USB drive. If it fails to play, the MP3 player may be faulty.

I've been frustrated by this situation before. When Audi CarPlay has no sound, it's usually due to incorrect basic settings. I remember last time I was driving, I found my phone's media volume was set extremely low – adjusting it higher solved the problem. You also need to check the volume knob on the vehicle's center console, which might have been accidentally turned down or muted. There's an audio output option in Audi's MMI system where you must switch to CarPlay as the default source in settings, otherwise the system will default to radio or other devices. Cable connection is crucial too – a loose or aging USB cable can easily cause no sound, so try replacing it with a new one. For Bluetooth, ensure your phone and vehicle maintain a stable pairing. If your phone is connected to other headphones, it will automatically redirect audio, so turn off additional Bluetooth devices. Some Audi models like the Q5 have slightly different interfaces, but the troubleshooting approach remains the same. A simple restart of both your phone and CarPlay function often does the trick. Make it a habit to maintain regular updates to minimize software bugs.
