Not giving up on Android Auto

They have made the units impossible to hack now. It was probably intended in mib2 but they left too many backdoors open. Now they have closed them with mib3.

Nothing is impossible

Nothing is impossible

Not for you but they have sealed off the hobbyist hacking in mib3 which is what they wanted to do. Vag equipment, licenses paid then access granted since they have a money stream.

Sorry guys for ghosting you, I had a small vacation. Tried the simplest, OBD11 activation, didn't work. The guy didn't look like he knew what he was doing anyway.

@East Yorkshire Retrofits Thanks for the offer, it's currently out of my budget.

My next step is to try and talk to the dealer again, hoping that I will convince them to order the FEC which is necessary. Will post any news.

Dealers don't order FECs, they order activation documents/activation information. Once entered within ODIS, the information is sent to the mothership and it's then determined if the license information is applicable to the vehicle.

If the license information is applicable, the mothership generates a FEC, transfers to the module and then performs the basic setting along with any configuration changes. The information is then recorded against the vehicles build data and the relevant PR code(s) are changed.
