The navigation function comes complete with Australian Maps, built-in TMC tuner , more than a million Points Of Interest, speed limit display, choice of route options and Dynamic routing as standard. This device allows you to run Apple CarPlay or Android Auto wirelessly in selected VW/Audi/Porsche when there is no replacement device available. This gives you voice control or using our remote control device. If you are wanting to retrofit this to a pre-2015 vehicle, you’d need an additional wiring kit / loom.
It is imprescindible to check and confirm compatibility if your vehicle includes this kind of sound system. On the phone’s main display, all the time will be shown our name, phone’s coverage level, phone’s battery level, phone’s carrier name and it will also enable 4 shortcuts to your favourite phone numers. In my view, you shall never get the OEM perfection and integration with any third party devices. OEM would also ensure future upgrades and compatibility with any other applicable systems in the vehicle. Also, Voice Commands is a separate license which is used to interact with the default VW software, it provides basic voice functions like “”Call XYZ”” etc.
Particularly in the context of automobiles, the size of a system’s touchscreen display is intrinsically tied to its usability. It appears VW has realized this too, though their solution to the problem will likely still leave some users less than satisfied. Just last year Volkswagen models had the first-generation infotainment system, and like the first in anything it was becoming a bit outdated. It also had a proprietary port that required a separate plug to connect your smartphone. This wasn’t exactly convenient, so VW made some necessary changes. Once the phone is connected to the car via the USB cable, the voice control button can be used to interact with the voice assistants on iOS or Android.
This product allows you to update your MIB2 unit without an expensive trip to the dealer. This means you have a display and a separate control unit in the glovebox. To find out which version is applicable to your unit, hold the menu button & press software update/versions.

You can check out YouTube for the same, the functions are pretty rudimentary. Decided to go ahead with Apple CarPlay installation in the GTI along with the OEM flip camera. I had been contemplating whether to go ahead with the infotainment module upgrade since a long time and finally bit the bullet as I decided not to sell the GTI any time soon. It is expensive but completely retains the stock look and all components are OEM VW.
