Road Top Wireless Carplay Android Auto for Audi A4 A5 S4 S5 RS4 RS5 Q5 2008-2015 with 3GMMI System, Carplay Retrofit Kit, Support Mirrorlink, Siri, Navigation, Camera

Have used this in a 2012 Audi S5 for about four months. Installation was relatively easy and quick but instructions were light and YouTube video from the company wasn't very good. The short version is you change the connections listed in the documentation and leave everything else connected (or disconnect/reconnect if that's easier--that's what I did so I could see the back connections clearly). It has worked really well overall--very rarely there's a connection or other glitch, but it always resolves with a restart and doesn't happen often. For 2012 Audi S5 owners who have dealt with 1) no bluetooth streaming and 2) after-market bluetooth adapters that annoying auto-start, this has been great. Having the full capability with a wireless connection for CarPlay or Android Auto is fantastic. I preferred this setup which doesn't come with a touch screen but I can easily navigate with the stock Audi controls and I can easily revert to stock everything in a few minutes if I wanted to remove it. Great device!

Works perfectly, easy setup, the connectivity is great, turns it on instantly the moment you turn on the car, only downside is that Siri constantly turns on by itself and it doesn’t mute the music when you talk to her. Everything else flawless!

Install was easy, setup took a couple YT videos to nail down the right settings. It works great, I get in the car and it loads Waze and Spotify NP, but not having a touch screen is really detrimental. Controlling the interface with the Audi control knobs it a real PITA. I don't think the AA interface works well without a touchscreen, I have to stop myself from touching the screen every time i want to change something. I would still recommend this to my friends but I would tell them get the one that comes with the larger 8.9" replacement screen.

Love how easily this added CarPlay to my 2016 Audi Q5. I'd been searching for options for years and all of them required either expensive changes to the dash to add a new monitor or involved a loss of function of backup camera, stereo controls, etc. This allowed me to retain all the controls and features of the Audi MMI I wanted, but add full CarPlay. It almost feels like I got a new car.

Purchased this after doing a ton of research on how to add CarPlay to my US-model 2014 Audi Q5 TDI. mine originally came with the MMI 3G so this is the unit that is compatible. Installation was easy (be sure to buy radio removal keys) but did take a few tries to get all of the new wiring and the control box to fit behind the factory CD player. Hint - there’s a gap above the AC controls that ultimately let me get it all to fit inside. Anyone who has ever installed a new head unit in a car should have no problems getting this installed. I routed the WiFi antenna and USB cord down into the passenger footwell area and am mainly using my phone connected via USB. The controls work perfectly! Even better than expected. If you’ve ever used a newer Audi or a Mazda with CarPlay it works just the same with the dial control. One tip: enable “use car Bluetooth for phone calls” in the settings for the CarPlay adapter and you won’t have any microphone issues making calls. Also, if you find navigation volume too low when listening to music, adjust the volume using the cars volume control WHILE Apple Maps are giving directions to adjust the volume for voice guidance. This makes my nearly 10 year Audi feel like I have all the features of a brand new one! Why did I wait so long to buy this?

This item was purchased about a year ago but has failed to operate reliably. The unit, from almost the beginning would not connect or the screen would freeze on the menu screen or would flash between the menu screen and the map display. This situation occurs about half the time when I use the system. Repeated attempts to connect with the supplier technical support has resulted in either completely ignored requests for service or a denial that the products was provided by them even though I selected to the supplier link provided in the Amazon product page. I've since given up on receiving any support or recourse for this unit but I wanted others to be aware of the product quality and the customer service abilities/willingness of the company selling this item. Judging from the number of review stars, it seems others are experiencing the same except in a few cases. I will say, that when the unit functions, it is nice and works with the existing controls of my Audi Q5.

Installed in my 2012 Audi a4. Took about an hour works very well

2011 A5 Cabriolet. Connection was easy. I suggest YouTube videos. There doesn’t seem to be any degradation to sound quality. Audi MMI controls still work and work with this system. Suggestions - MMI controls are cumbersome Playlist - make them and use them.. Navigate - enter the address on your IPhone before departure. When attempting to remove the radio keys push the tabs on the side of the radio (silver) harder then you would think and pull the keys harder then you think at the same time. For the wifi antenna. It fits perfectly beneath the AC controls and from what I’ve read it’s not that powerful and needs to be closer to the phone.. Make sure to plug the Aux adapter into the MMI interface in the glove box or the system won’t work I would recommend this to anyone wanting to update their system.

Love this. Long overdue purchase. Easy to install with various YouTube videos out there. Can do that and fully customize it within an hour. Based on the instructions I was worried that the rear view OEM camera would require extra complicated installations (because I had a manual transmission) but luckily that did not end up being the case. So far only one day in but works flawlessly so far - very happy.

EXCELENTE PRODUCTO

Shipped very quickly and the CarPlay works as intended. It was a bit tricky with installing and having everything fit, but with some videos I was able to put it all together in about 2 hours. The installation instructions are pretty good but they could be a bit more descriptive. The dashboard removal video seemed short - only shows you how to remove but could have included how to put everything back together. I also figured out that you don’t need to have some cables connected like the USB one if you have a reverse camera from factory. That would have been helpful to know, but again figured that out myself. Some people had talked about other CarPlay systems not working great with the B&O sound system but mine was fine. Phone calls also had no issue. I’m hopeful that all of this remains without issue!

An absolute MUST HAVE! Phenomenal product. Despite the instructions being in broken English and abysmal, if you have the slightest electrical inclination, it’s hard to mess up. Audio quality doesn’t suffer either, and the retention of the OE system with this added CarPlay system is amazing to have. Wireless connection every time without failure, no issues. 10/10 product, very snappy and responsive too. Instructions 5/10, also, please update your installation “guides” you provide via QR Code on YouTube

I purchased and installed the above unit in my 2011 Audi s5, and everything worked well!
