Hi, I have a Swing infotainment unit in my Octavia 3 FL with part number 5E0 035 869 D. Recently, CarPlay stopped working for me, so I’m trying to update the firmware in hopes that it will fix the issue.

Could you please check if you have a newer firmware version available for this unit, or share a download link if you do?

Thanks a lot!

Check your PMs. @mikzzz try reset to factory settings, it helps very often.

I want to share my recent experience updating the Skoda Octavia 3 FL Swing unit (LG MEN2), because a lot of details are not clearly documented anywhere, or I did not find that. Hopefully this helps someone avoid problems during FW update.

 

My unit configuration

Head unit: Swing (MEN2, LG)

HW number: 5E0 035 869 D

Original firmware: MEN2_EU_SKGPx_P7381L / MU 8740

Modules present: MU‑CPU, MU‑PIC, MU‑DAB, BT, SmartLink

Modules NOT presented: MU‑TNR, ENGECU - This is very important later, because missing modules must be unchecked manually.

 

Why I updated? After updating my iPhone to iOS 26.1, CarPlay stopped working. A factory reset solved the issue, but I decided to update the firmware to 8755 for stability.

 

Update procedure

-              Use SD card, FAT32 (USB should also work, but SD is more reliable). Copy the content (not the folder) of the firmware package MEN2_EU_SKGPx_P0080L_8755 to the root of the SD card. Thanks to @pab567 for providing that. You can also download the package here, the *_working one: https://mibsolution.one/#/1/9/MEN2%20-%20LG

- Insert the SD card

- Hold SETUP for ~10 seconds to enter UPDATE MENU.

- Choose UPDATE. The unit automatically selects modules to update → uncheck everything that does NOT exist in your unit (It has an empty number of application version).

In my case, I had to uncheck MU‑TNR and ENGECU, otherwise update failed.

- Start update.

- Ignition does not need to be ON, but make sure the battery is not weak (keep charger connected if unsure).

 

What happened during my update. The head unit attempted to update all modules including the ones that are physically missing.

This resulted in:

MU‑CPU and MU‑PIC → updated successfully (8740 → 8755)

SmartLink → updated successfully (0072 → 0074)

MU‑TNR → update attempted even though module is not present → signature error

ENGECU → attempted but does not physically exist → failure

Even though the update ended with “Software update failed”, all real modules were actually updated and the system is working.

 

Important advice

1. Always uncheck modules you don’t have. If a module shows “empty” as previous version, you must uncheck it before updating. Otherwise you will get errors like: “33 – Source signature cannot be confirmed. System will restart…”

2. Swing MEN2 (LG) does not show all modules correctly in UPDATE MENU and missing modules may appear in the list → just uncheck them.

3. No downgrade possible. Once updated to 8755, you cannot return to 8740 (cryptographic signature prevents it).

 

Hope this helps future Swing users!

Hello Pab567,

Would you be so kind and send me an update on my device if it's there a chance.

Thank you & Regards,

Peter

Hello Pab567,

Can I have the 8755 non-official upgrade for the following Swing over Fabia 3 ?

Thanks.

Hello everyone,

I hope you're all doing well.

I own a 2019 Skoda Fabia 1.0 MPI and I am looking for some help regarding the infotainment software on my car. I checked the Skoda Update Portal using my VIN, but unfortunately it reports that there are no updates available.

My infotainment unit details are:

• Vehicle: Skoda Fabia III (NJ), 2019, 1.0 MPI

• VIN: TMBEA6NJ4KZ61****

• Part Number: 6V0 035 869 H

• Hardware Version: 690

• Software Version (MU): 8740

• Train Version: MEN2_EU_SKGPx_P7381L

• Bluetooth: C190

I have seen discussions mentioning newer firmware versions such as 8755 and possibly newer train versions, so I was wondering if anyone could help me obtain the correct firmware package for my unit or point me in the right direction.

Another issue is that Apple CarPlay has never worked on my car since I bought it. I am not sure whether this is related to the firmware version, SmartLink activation, or something else. If anyone has experienced a similar issue or knows how to get CarPlay working on this specific unit, I would greatly appreciate your advice.

Thank you very much for your time and assistance. Any help, recommendations, firmware links, or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
Fabia owner from Romania
