CarPlay makes every car seem much newer and so much easier to live with. Today we're adding factory style Apple CarPlay to this 2011 Audi S5 with the Road Dog wireless CarPlay kit Garrod bought.

The copper flake you're seeing in the oil is probably from someone put Restore Oil Treatment in the oil. Seen it a ton of times. It will freak you out the first time. Got me for sure.

I know a guy who puts Restore in every used vehicle he owns. Regardless of issues or not he just starts adding it from day one.

@TonyElam I personally have no issues with it. In fact Project Farm did a test with it that had very positive results. Just a scary sight the first time you drop the oil afterwards. Lol

I put one of those CarPlay modules into my 2011 A6 last year. Looks like there’s a lot more room in the S5 than the A6. I almost gave up trying to wedge the wiring harness into a small area. The module itself had to go behind the glove box. Well worth it though. Brought an old car into modern times.

I put that in my A7. It's a pain. If he has any issues with the sound quality, there are a lot of tweaks on the EQ for the main menu. It changes the navigation audio, BT phone audio, and a lot of controls for the music audio. I just hate when I keep trying to touch the screen, lol.

I wanted Android Auto and Carplay in a Challenger and after seeing the chinese boxes to retrofit it, I just decided it was easier to just swap a newer Uconnect (from a 2019 Charger) in and flash a body computer to retain heated seat and heated steering wheel controls. Turns out, there's virtually zero room in the dash for aftermarket, unless I wanted some awful tablet sticking out over the vents in the dash (Stinger HEIGH10). Turns out, the factory setup was cheaper than aftermarket too, didn't require center console removal, and probably took the same amount of time too (since I didn't need to shove an interface box into the dash).

@Smokey_A 8 ай бұрын

I've had both style of these, the type here that doesn't replace the screen, and the screen replacement style that gives touch screen. Go with the later. My S4 is the B8+, so the next gen MMI from this car I think. These are also generally wireless Android Auto as well (which is what I use).

Did the same type of swap in my wife's 2013 B8.5 Audi S4. It uses the newer (but still old/outdated) 3G MMI, though the process is very similar. I used the "name brand" RS Nav unit, though they don't make this type of unit anymore as they want to just sell their screen replacement now. It does CarPlay but I have no need for Apple, but Android Auto works great with it. Install is easy but there are some key differences. One is the newer MMI has phone streaming and you utlize that. But to do so, you have to get audio in one of two ways. #1 - the dumb way, which is run a cable to the Aux input. #2 - the right way, is to use VCDS - which every Audi owner should already own - and code it so the output works. I forget how but there are KZfaq instructions on doing it and its easy. I also don't have to switch back to the car for the backup camera, as it does it just like factory. Takes a bit to get used to using the knob and buttons to navigate around Android Auto intstead of a touch screen. If it were my car instead of the wife's, I would have done the screen swap unit instead.

@stagmanson4155 8 ай бұрын

I was looking into putting a RSNAV, all they offer now is the series 4, but when looking I saw that you had to do that Aux input thing to get the sound out. Quite honestly that feels like a hack, so there's a way to not have that aux cable and using some VCDS to have it work w/o the aux cable trick? Also, how has it been, has she seen any major bugs with it? I was looking to place one in my 14' S4. Either way thanks for commenting as it answered so many things already.

@Nitrousbird 8 ай бұрын

@@stagmanson4155yep, there are videos online on how to do it without the aux. I don't recall it being a big deal. Wife never uses it...I do when I drive her car. Works really well. Only issue it ever has is occasionally not connecting to my phone, which is usually fixed turning Bluetooth off and on (S22 Ultra). I have that happen from time to time with AAWireless in my truck and my factory look Android unit in my Cayman, so not a unit-specific issue.

So are you saying they don't sell the RS nav without the giant display? I don't need a touchscreen and would prefer the recessed factory look screen but would like android auto. 2013 S5.

FYI for folks who have not had ACP or AA- If you are on wifi when you get in the car, like you will be at home, it takes WAY longer then is acceptable to get audio from the head unit then it did in say 2014 with just bluetooth...... I never use Android Auto unless Im going out of town. Do your research and another FYI, Amazon reviews on car stereos are very unreliable. Atoto for instance pays for positive feedback with free back up cameras..... I got the camera and then edited my review to reflect the terrible AM/FM performance...
