Leon 2017 model, enabling android auto?

[Halosos]

Hey! I have a 2017 Leon that I just got. I love it! (I bought another Leon after my last one got taken out by a fiat 500).

I want to find out what is needed to get android auto working on it while keeping the various other features working (Park pilot, sensors, modes, etc)

What what has been told to me this far, my Leon was made before AA was rolled out fully. So I want to see if I am enable or retrofit it.

If it isn't possible, big sad, but fair! If it is possible, would love to get this ball rolling!

2017 should already support Android Auto & Apple Carplay

That’s MIB1, that isn’t factory fit. Somebody’s swapped it for the MIB2 it should have…

Or, your car isn’t a 2017. If you send me the VIN I’ll check for you

Not sure exactly where the vin is. It is dark right now so I might have missed it.

Also a picture from the system.

As previously mentioned, that's MIB1. Either the car is not a 2017, or somebody has swapped the infotainment system

The VIN is in the bottom right of the windscreen when looking from outside

I am dumb. I don't know why I had it in my head that it was 2017.

Well, same question applies, can I get android auto in it?

Amazing! Thank you! One step closer! Now I need to see if I can find a way to wirelessly charge my phone and keep it cool at the same time...

But thank you again! I apologise for the confusion caused by my idiocy. I found out why I thought it was 17. My courtesy car was a 17 plate.

There is a cheaper way to retrofit it. You can buy a unit from aliexpress for like 200$ and just plug it into your existing MIB1 unit and you can have carplay and android auto.

Hope this helps!
