The new cars that are going to be produced starting from week 48, meaning December, will have wireless carplay for all countries. Hopefully the ones that were produce before that, will get an update in order to enable it.

It works for me:


Code:
- 5F Multimedia
- Adaptation
- Function configuration connectivity
- - App connect over wifi [Yes]
- - Online media [on]
- - Apple CapPlay [USB only > on]
- - Google android auto [USB only > on]
- - Mirror link [USB only > on]

My car was produced November 3, wireless Android Auto works flawless. I haven't even tried with a cable. And controlling for instance the parking heater from the app works flawless too. That's in Sweden. The MiB is very responsive and quick too.

Yes. Many countries had wireless carplay since day 1.. but many cars didnt. The phone app for heating and closing doors and such works for everyone I believe.

Does heating works on all models, for example i have 1,5etsi FR, or it only works on hybrid leon’s? If it works for other, please share with me guys how you activate car pre-heating

as far as i know and i may be wrong, there are 2 options:
1- hybrid car and the electric motor handles the heating
2 - for non hybrid engines, a car option that allows heating without the engine working

Yes, for non HEV a parking heater is a optional extra, it runs on fuel to warm up the coupe and the motor. It's not a expensive extra if factory mounted, but to install it later is a ~3k affair which is not so nice. However, when you have it you never wants a vehicle without it :)

In addition, if the car is equipped with additional heating (Webasto), on warm days, it is possible to remotely turn on the fan to ventilate the interior (the fan itself, not air conditioning).

However, when you have it you never wants a vehicle without it :)

i am trying to change the values that you said but then the app keeps saying "writing" forever on IOS.
Tried an android phone and the message is something went wrong.

It seems that i can not activate wireless car play on my car.
