This is the correct CD changer cable but depending on which model of  Audi  you have you may already have this installed in your car however  you will also need to change the Phatbox interface cable from the VW rectangular plug pn# 1J0051592 to an Audi round plug pn# 0051592A

You will see the Audi leads & their part numbers listed if you go to page 1 on the following PDF file

You will see the VW leads page 2 here

If you do not have CD changer cable installed you can buy the VW beetle CD changer  harness  pn# 1J0051592A this will connect up to your VW Phatbox and also your Audi Head unit  (may have to remove pins from CD changer cable blue plug & insert them into the existing Audi plug depending on headunit )

All the Audi installation guides are here
