Evening all,
My brand new A5 is currently back at the dealer to fix a faulty boot mechanism motor. To soften the blow the dealer has loaned me a very nice Q8 complete with wireless CarPlay which I’ve now decided I can’t live without when I get my A5 back.
I’ve seen adapters like Carplay2air and also read suggestions it’s possible to recode the MMI with OBDeleven or similar to turn on wireless CarPlay (seems to be the 5ghz WiFi signal is the main thing you need).
What would people recommend is the best option to try?
An adapter feels safer but they only work with standard usb so means having it on show by the cup holders not in the arm rest. Also seen reviews they aren’t that reliable.
That said has anyone actually got it to work using OBD?
