Carlinkit - AA \ Carplay Wireless dongle

Octavia MK3 aftermarket headunit possible?
Nope no wireless android auto on any oem head unit. The adaptors work really well thought. The advantages are good call quality (that will degrade on an after market unit) plus you maintain all the car settings and errors messages. If you car doesn't have the unit you want, you can easily upgrade

HELP! MIB2 GP 6.5" to MIB2.5 9.2" RETROFIT and SOME PROBLEMS
Have you tried changing the radio display settings? In dabo Sme display modes don't show the radio informations If it is fm, you will have to upload the logos through your usb drive. The radio should find most of them then you have to map the ones the radio doesn't find. https://updateportal.skoda-auto.com/

MIB1 android auto/ car play solution
I had one of those, They work ok but on speech recogntion, it would just hang, not understanding what I was saying. For the reste it is fine (navigation, musique, vidéo, AA but without speech recognition...)

FIRST CAR - ADVICE NEEDED
From what you say, I would go for the 1.4l engine. You will have good mileage. With the 2.0, get between 7.1 and 8.5 at 130 km/h and do 600km on a full tank

Carlinkit - AA \ Carplay Wireless dongle
I thinks carlinkit has some sort of software running compared to the other dongles that just link the car to the phone. They use the car Bluetooth.

(Android) head unit replacement for 2014 Octavia
Hello, This has being discussed multiple times. All the android head units will give you headaches. Most annoying us horrible call quality. Go foe the mib2 upgrade with a wireless android auto dongle and you will be good to go. It is more expensive but worth it. I went through 3 Android units before upgrading to mib2

Head unit help please
Hello, it seems you have the latest firmware. You unit is most likely an Amundsen mib1. You will not be getting any recent maps on this unit, skoda stopped updating them about 5 years ago. For the radio logos, I can't tell, I think it should be automatic.
