Wireless CarPlay - possible solution

S90 · Nov 9th, 2022, 14:38

So, I've been in discussion for a few days with a contact I have in the USA. They are sending me a small box which they are 100% certain will provide wireless ACP on the new AAOS platform.

As soon as it arrives I'll check it out and see if it does. If it doesn't I can send it back. Its a sample so is costing me nothing, but if it works, how many people would be interested, subject to cost??

I’d definitely be interested S90 if it works and doesn’t cost the earth.

I'll keep you updated, I'm not convinced it will work, they are adamant.

Quick update. Unit arrived, does work but not in a user friendly way. emails going back and forth to fix the issues which make it non user friendly,

Content off screen, resolution issue
Set up procedure, far too complex, should be plug and play
Causing an issue where if you use it, then revert to a cable you need to soft reset AAOS to get ACP working again.

They seem confident on fixing these issues. Will let you know when I have more positive news. For now, I'm back to hardwired!

Seems some owners have had success with the Ottocast U2-Xpro over on Swedespeed - https://www.swedespeed.com/threads/w.../#post-8022474

I very much doubt it.
The only way to get that is to make some big changes behind the dash.
It's Sensus that is limiting the CarPlay display.
