Did the car already have CarPlay or is that the actual CarPlay module. I’ve got a 19 SQ5 that has CarPlay but it’s not wireless. Is there a way to retrofit the wireless receiver? I’ve looked at those plug and play and they seem average at best.
Great video and product! Whats your advice for someone who doesn't know much about car audios... is it easy enough to install myself based on your video or is it complex enough to need to pay someone to install? Thanks!
You can watch this video and install it yourself! It's pretty straight forward. Just make sure you have the tools needed (audi radio removal keys, socket and screw driver set, tape etc).

Great video! I have a 2017 Audi S3 facelift, already has carplay thru usb port, is there anyway i could stream Netflix or mirror my iphone to my mmi screen? Thanks!
Hey mate! Thank you. Unfortunately nothing that I am aware of without having to add another module. If I come across something I’ll make a video about it to help :)
Hi mate I have seemed to connect the box with my unit in an Audi A3 2013 however everything works beside the sound whilist I’m in car play? Any idea or help with this one please? Would be really appreciated:)
When running Android Auto, does it use the entire screen? I have seen other retrofits where only part of the screen is used, leaving massive bezels. Thanks!
Hey buddy keen to grab one of these kits for my 2013 a3 does it stuff up any existing reverse camera or diver assist stuff alarms when installing the CarPlay function?
@@efficientlyyou5372 kind of. It works in conjunction with the power + CAN + screen cables so it’s plug and play and in the end you have added features without changing any of the OEM stuff
Just installed this, now my factory reverse camera doesn’t work. Also the text app, Spotify etc.. won’t allow to scroll through anything so it has to be done through the phone. I also cannot get audio to work through CarPlay.
hi mate so i dont have the exact one as you - but i do have one which is IDENTICAL - when i plug it in that blue logo shows up but doesnt continue to the next screen - any ideas ? how would you do a software update on this device
@@TheFittingBay Cool! So is it possible to use Waze in CP, including voice instructions, and at the same time call someone via bluetooth? What about the original rear camera, will it still come in when I shift to rear while CP in on?
I have a MY19 Audi S5 with the Apple CarPlay (wired version) as standard equipment. Is there a mod that will allow me to convert/install Wireless Apple CarPlay? I am located in Sydney but happy to install myself. Thanks. Geoff
Thank you for the indepth video really helpful! I have the same unit installed, only having one issue is that on my cockpit, it doesnt show the track name and couldnt use the steering wheel button to change to next track.. do you have the same issue? Thanks in advance🙏
burock OBD11 or VCDS will do it. If you don’t have a computer you can remove the negative terminal on the battery but you might still get some codes :)
@@TheFittingBay Great, but I'm in Ireland, haven't seen anything that would work, so was a real surprise to see the video on the similarly equipped a3. What can you do for me...🤔
deanor77 The OEM mic is still used for the factory Bluetooth and voice control. The new mic is only for voice control with your phone (hey Siri / ok google) so you need both in tact. I’ve seen people try to cut the factory mic and splice in the new mic. 1) not gonna work with Audi 2) pointless as you’ll lose one of the two features you need.
Hi, I have a 2015 s3 8v and in the armrest I have a mmi port which I can plug in a female USB. Would this work for the android screen mirroring or do you need to use the USB provided on the carplay box? Thanks

Just wondering what the mic is for? Wouldn’t it just use the exiting mic they picks up the OE telephone 🤔
Hi ,just watched your clip ,do you supply and install this system fir customers?
Bonjour, thanks a lot for your video. Very good job and explanation

So theres no need to connect the two camera input cables? The stock ones functional with the unit as per normal?

@@justinedwardgaddi9318 currently looking at module that will allow this to work on cars with OEM CarPlay but it’s pretty expensive ($660) ballpark
Thank you for the video, what about the quality sound trough the BO with the CarPlay Module ?
Still sounds amazing :)
Hey , amazing video .Have been searching something like this for ages now.Do you guys ship to India ?
Yes we do!
It’s necessary to install the microphone and the usb ? Or you just can’t put the wireless module to see the maps and listen Spotify ???
You can do wireless but you need to plug it in first for initial connection not to mention software updates etc

Hey buddy i also live in Victoria i would like to ask how much for all cost to get it replaced bro?
Does this work for Audi A3 2016? The interior and glove box looks exactly the same. Does this void car warranty? Is there a install service?
Yep it works. Doesn’t void warranty and yes we install in Melbourne :) otherwise we ship the product to you and you can find a local fitter.
Is there any way to put mirroring on the entire screen?
When using carplay waze navigation can you listen to the normal radio?
Yep :)
Hey buddy keen to grab one of these kits for my 2013 a3 does it stuff up any existing reverse camera or diver assist stuff alarms when installing the CarPlay function?
Not at all :)
So I assume you just plug in the main power cables and leave any labeled plugs if you have them already setup?
@@efficientlyyou5372 kind of. It works in conjunction with the power + CAN + screen cables so it’s plug and play and in the end you have added features without changing any of the OEM stuff

Do you need the mic if already installed with mmi genuine system?
Yep - genuine mic = OEM Bluetooth / new mic = Siri and voice commands
Why would it need a seperate mic when the car already has a mic for phonecalls?
I didn't have to install a separate micro. It works with the original micro of the car :)
hi mate so i dont have the exact one as you - but i do have one which is IDENTICAL - when i plug it in that blue logo shows up but doesnt continue to the next screen - any ideas ? how would you do a software update on this device
Can you just use the factory fitted mic or are the ports different?
Factory mic for Bluetooth calls. New mic for voice control :)
@@TheFittingBay Cool! So is it possible to use Waze in CP, including voice instructions, and at the same time call someone via bluetooth? What about the original rear camera, will it still come in when I shift to rear while CP in on?
@@TheFittingBay fair, the factory voice control is pretty garbage 😅
Dude are you based in Victoria? Cause I’d deadset pay you to install mine 😂
Does it default to CarPlay when starting the car or do you have to go through MMI menu to start CarPlay?
I would like to know this too.
@The Fitting Bay
Is the installation the same for the Audi A3? do i need any coding or wire cuts? and how is the audio quality, any echo?
Also my car comes with a mic, will the wiring be different or will the module detect it?
Audio is perfect, bluetooth is meh but you use genuine audi for phone calls. No coding or cuts, but VCDS is good to clear codes from unplugging stuff.
If I add a reverse camera to the yellow connector will the display each time car is in reverse on the car play system
Yep :)
It's expensive. Can you guys ship it to South Africa? I have a 1.4 A3 2014 tfsi
Yes we can :)
Great video! Does it work for a 2013 Audi A3?
Yes it does :)
I have a MY19 Audi S5 with the Apple CarPlay (wired version) as standard equipment. Is there a mod that will allow me to convert/install Wireless Apple CarPlay? I am located in Sydney but happy to install myself. Thanks. Geoff
Geoff Wilson hi Geoff! We have adapters so you can plug the adapter in, pair your phone and you’ll have wireless CarPlay 😊

Hi can we put the reversing camera on audi a3s currunt screen
Hi, does this support Audi's Original Mic?
For the Audi bluetooth yes! For CP no, needs the mic it comes with for voice control etc.
What unit were you fitting?
Where did get the system from
How have this installed in a
2016 Audi S3?
We can do it if you are in Melbourne. www.shoptfb.com
Will this work in a pfl s3 or does it need CarPlay as standard already?
This will work in a standard S3/A3 without CarPlay :)
Where can I find this module. I'm from south africa.
Right here :) shoptfb.com/collections/audi/products/audi-a3-s3-rs3-mmi-12-18
Will this work for a 2016 Audi A3 E-Tron?
I'll need to see the screen :) you can email me - info@aesonline.com.au
Will this work with a 2016 Audi S3 with the B&O and Nav? Also, why doesn't it use the mic that is in the car?
Just installed a different kit into my 2014 s3 and it uses factory mic for Siri :)
@@goalmaster94 what kit?
I just bought an Audi S3 2014. It doesn't have nav. Can I upgrade the mmi infotainment to a newer one with nav on it? Thanks 😁 @@goalmaster94
why is it not using the mic already installed it the car ?
Factory mic is still used for Bluetooth phone calls but the new mic for CarPlay + hey Siri
Could you fit one of those to an a6,14 plate?
Sure can
Thank you for the indepth video really helpful! I have the same unit installed, only having one issue is that on my cockpit, it doesnt show the track name and couldnt use the steering wheel button to change to next track.. do you have the same issue? Thanks in advance🙏
Nothing from OP on this question yet huh? I was planning on getting this for my Audi S3 8v pre facelift but want to make sure it works.
I'm curious too...
Hey mate, i installed the same unit in my car with android auto. No audio is playing through the unit. why?
Did you end up fixing this?
@Rxtrocal you need a AMI AUX port in your glovebox. Change audi MMI audio to aux and it'll work
@@Peter-mm4ot yeah I connected a cable I got to my Ami in my glovebox. Now no audio works period, outside of CarPlay on the bluetooth and radio
Do i have to remove battery connection before start installation?
burock Nope but you’ll need to clear fault codes after install
@@TheFittingBay do i need obd2 to clean them ? or which device? i have 2018 audi a4 b9
burock OBD11 or VCDS will do it. If you don’t have a computer you can remove the negative terminal on the battery but you might still get some codes :)
