I have a 66 plate Sportage that was first registered in January 17. The dealer said that it had android auto when I bought it a week ago but now they tell me it doesn't. Will an update to the SD card give it that functionality?

Sprout, currently no update is available to our headhunts with AVN 2. It's possible it comes in the future but nothing confirmed. Until then I have my phone set for the Android Auto app to open automatically once the car bluetooth is connected. I have it mounted on one of those magnetic vent mounts. The only difference is not utilising the in build screen and not having the voice recognition button but "OK Google" gets round that.

Thanks. Problem I've found with the android auto app is when listening to Spotify the screen on the car doesn't change as the songs change. That only Orla if I use Spotify without android auto

I have exactly the same problem, I thought it was down to my phone (Huawei Mate 10 Pro) but maybe it's the Android Auto app. What handset do you have?

Do you know when in June this will be available. My car is going in for service and map update around 13th and wanted it all done at same time. Will this still be possible?

Sorry, no confirmed date yet. We'll keep the forum updated.

Sorry, the 2016 Sportage will have the previous head unit and no voice activation feature, so can't be retrospectively made compatible with Android Auto.

Okay, thanks could you kindly let me know when those maps were released? Only my dealer attempted to do me an update in November last year and I ended up with the same version as I started with EUR.08 etc. And they still insist that this is the latest version.

These were released back in March when we started this thread. We'd recommend waiting for our 2018 update due in the next few weeks but in the meantime, please get in touch if you'd like us to investigate the update failure. You just need 20 points to PM us.

Hi tractorman

Sorry, 2016 Sportage cannot be retrospectively made compatible with CarPlay. This app was only added to Sportage ('2' spec and above) last year with the introduction of our new head unit.
