Apple CarPlay Screen Issue - Waze

Hi All,

Stumbled across this forum a while ago after taking delivery of my Cupra Leon in October. Was looking to see if others were having similar software glitches as myself but never ended up posting. I'm eventually posting as more & more software glitches are cropping up.

Thought I'd post this here instead of Cupra forums as I believe it's probably an issue that's on both Seat/Cupra Leon's.

If I use Waze via Apple CarPlay, the screen will go all weird and the rendering very poor. I'll attach an image (Please ignore how dusty/horrible the car looks). I obviously use Waze for a specific purpose & getting extremely frustrated as it freezes/crashes Apple CarPlay.
I've updated phone/Waze application. The same phone doesn't cause issues in a Mercedes A Class which I use quite regularly.

Other software glitches I get every so often:
  • Cruise Control failing to activate (Need to turn ignition off/on)
  • Front damper failure?? This only happened once & never returned
  • Front collision assist failure
  • Many other little lights
I contacted my local Seat/Cupra dealership the day after the front damper failure and never received reply, brilliant.

Anybody else had similar to these or any suggestions other than pestering my local dealership?

Thanks

Hi, mate! At least you have a full screen apple carplay, I have minimized version of it. But about this glich of screen display quality looks like a common problem to cupra leons. As one of our Latvian dude also has this problem with svreen glitches when using apple carplay. Android auto works perfectly but carplay bugs and etc. I would suggest to contact local dealer and force them to overwrite your software. It should help.

i have the same problem but this only happens with waze. Other applications works fine.
If you go to seat menu and return to carplay the issue goes way for some time...

This actually fixed itself when an update was pushed to the car.
it only used to happen with Waze, not Google Maps

Unfortunately this also happens to me with google maps. So now I can't use both Waze and google maps anymore

Same here, with Google map! It had been fine since I got the car a year ago, but since this past weekend all the sudden map screen render started to play up. Very annoying, and the location tracking seems to be slower than it used to be too. Go to car menu then back to carplay would fix it for a while only. If this go on any longer I will have to do the unthinkable; revert to use the car’s own nav system!!

Have this issue too with google maps after recent update to my 2020 Leon
Noticed the GPS is lagging as well about 100m behind my location

Same issue here with the Google map display and lag. Only started to happen after my car went in for a software update a few weeks back.

The car (Leon e-hybrid) is back at the dealer for another software update, I get it back tomorrow, will see if the Google map issue on Apple Car play is still the same!

Interested to hear how your update goes. Mine is going into Seat in January for update.

I had a mk4 leon hire car last week and it had the same problem. Screen artefacts and a lag between the screen and where the car was. I assumed it was my phone - iphoneX - so a a bit long in the tooth now, and it was my first use of wireless car play

othwewise really liked the car. Not sure if I still prefer the mk3 though. I couldn’t make sense of the heater controls
