Fix Audi MMI 2G stuck on bootloader (A6 A8 Q7 A4 A5)

If you pressed the START #BOOTLOADER option in Audi MMI hidden green menu, then you are stuck on the "Application Update" screen and you #Audi MMI 2G will not go back to normal operation mode unless you insert CD with software update containing the bootloader.
Luckily this CD is a part of 3-disc set with Multimedia interface firmware update, which you can order at your dealership.
After inserting CD1 (firmware 5150) or CD3 (5570) into your cars CD-Changer, the missing bootloader should be installed in your headunit and the #MMI system should be back live again.
I highly recommend not to download pirated copies of the update CDs, as there might be some intensionally damaged copies released to brick the MMI headunit. Also there's a risk of not burning the disc correctly, which can also cause damage to the car.
Part numbers:
4L0 998 961 (for Europe/RoW Audi A6, A8, Q7)
8K0 998 961 (for Europe/RoW Audi A4, A5)
4F0 998 961 (for North America Audi cars)

[@waelaburezeq4641]

Hi Mr.Fix, I have Audi A6 C7, that comes with RMC Cnt Plus MMI Unit. It's original firmware version was RMC_EU_P10396 and the unit part number is 4G0 035 182G (SW: 0647; HW: H50). I tried to update the firmware to RMC_EU_K16158 and appearantly it updated all components with error "Device Reporting Error" on these two components, thus they WERE NOT updated: 1- VIP_J09_DELPHI 2- INIC_81050 As a result, I don't see my AMI audio input, and my software version is "?" now!!!!! How can I rollback to the older version, I wasn't able to find RMC_EU_P10396 firmware on the internet! My green menu doesn't have SWDL option too as RMC is a bit limited. Thank you,
