Thanks for this. Used it to install in my 2011 RS5 last night. Installation went flawlessly except man it’s tight getting the head unit back in afterwards! I needed to use plastic prying tools to pry the climate controls from the rear My AliExpress unit came with zero instructions so was able to use your guide (screenshotted your dipswitch screenshot, mine being a 2011 was slightly different) Testing last night it ran great wirelessly and the integration with the factory controls was fine. Holding the “return” button for 3 secs will reboot the unit, didn’t see this documented anywhere so thought I’d mention it. Today is front brake rotor and pad change day

Thought I’d reply to my own message and give my thoughts on it after a few months. Mine would sometimes have issues when running wirelessly with not connecting to CarPlay or the Bluetooth playing up, so I’ve started using the USB connection which I found works flawlessly with two regular drivers, as a benefit I removed the aerial and the whole thing fits in much easier. I was having to plug in for charge anyway. Also turn off the equaliser (set to normal) as it seems to mess with the b&o system

Thanks for the video! I’ve just successfully installed mine. For me most challenging part is neither the installation nor wiring part but the final step: removing the audio removal tool / key.. Just don’t buy those tools which are made fully by metal with no plastic part on them (like the ones in the video). These things may stuck in the unit and takes a lot of time and tries to pull them out. Literally they should be removed easily with a screwdriver pushing the locks on each side of the audio unit but the tools I’ve bought are poorly made so they really gave me a hard time.

Thank you for your work and this video. I am waiting for my kit to come this weekend and get it installed on my 15 allroad. Your video is straightforward and will totally help getting this installed. Already familiar with the mmi since we've recently unmounted it to replace the HDD *5f module failure* . We got it cloned and averted a ridiculous $2500 price tag for a new MMI unit that Audi wants. Saving all that money now allows me to get the carplay unit from RSNAV. The S2 big screens are nice but i read little nagging issues here and there about it. I think the Carplay interface will suffice and keeps it OEM! Just to clarify on the Bluetooth- If I turn off the MMI BT (and use only the Carplay interface BT) - and I happen to be using the factory MMI (Satellite per se) and i receive a phone call--- would that automatically switch to CarPlay even though i did not have it engaged initially? Or would I need to switch to CarPlay or take the call from the phone instead since my oem BT would be off. There are times where i prefer to use SAT (mountains, no cell signal) im just wondering what if... Cheers!

Thanks- great video.

I honestly don't know as I haven't listened to the radio in 10 years or more! I'd just use Google Maps, Apple Maps, Waze, etc...going to be more up to date vs. the OE navigation. But the entire MMI is still "launched" and you can toggle back and forth between the two with the press of the NAV button. So it's in the background. Assuming, as long as the radio is selected, it'd work with CarPlay operational.

So here's the deal as I understand it. There is one supplier for the majority of these head units. Each vendor pays a license to have them produced and have certain features unlocked.

Couple follow up questions, for CarPlay, is it connected to the internet through your phone? Reason I ask is can you download other CarPlay allowed apps like Spotify? And navigation works using GPS from your phone?
@RS5Fanatic4 жыл бұрын
Yes to all. You basically are connected to your cell service and can use Pandora, Spotify, your phone's GPS with Apple Maps, Google Maps, Waze, etc...it is all wireless.

@RS5Fanatic Жыл бұрын
No delay at all honestly. Amazon used to carry it but they stopped so you'll have to go through RS Nav to get one. I'd stick with the stock screen models, like the one I used as they see to be the most bug free. I've had mine for 3 years now and no issues.

Alright I’ve got some questions... First and foremost my AMI was never showing up as available even with the cable in it. My CarPlay still worked. However it would pause my music when trying to give me turn based directions but there was no voice. Guessing this has something to do with the Bluetooth segment of this video? Lastly, at some point during my drive the audio for my music dropped out after I received some texts and I couldn’t get it back. Lastly, CarPlay is supposed to read incoming texts isn’t it?
@RS5Fanatic4 жыл бұрын
If you do not have an RS5, chances are your aux cord needs to be "activated" in the green screen menu (google that!). The turn by turn directions...need to turn off the Audi Bluetooth on the car. Last point, yes, it'll read texts to you and you can even respond with voice!
