    A1 2018 Android Auto

    Search in google for ‘Audi A1 android auto’. It fetches up what you are wanting and it’s about £500 just for the kit then you’ve got to get it installed at an extra cost.

    I bought a £200 bargain brick!

    There’s websites you can use and you just use the serial number of the unit. Just type into google car radio codes.

    Android HU advice (Erisin etc)

    Although I have an A3 I have had both brands and prefer xtrons. In an A3 the erisin will put nothing on the DIS whereas the xtrons unit will show you the frequency of the radio station on the dis and it will say some abbreviation of Bluetooth on the DIS when playing music through Bluetooth...

    Xtrons free sound upgrade

    Just thought I’d share this as I know quite a fewpeople now have the Xtrons stereo units. On the XDA Developers forum someone hasreleased a free update that dramatically improves the sound output from these headunits as somepeople don’t think the sound quality from theseunits is very good...

    Bose system is awful.. help please?

    If it’s just sound quality that you’re after then I’d just concentrate on getting your current system fixed. I’ve got Bose in my a3 and it’s decent. If yours is as bad as you say then there must be a fault somewhere so I’d personally concentrate on just getting that fixed first. It sounds like...

    Android RNS-E

    Like I said on another thread and like what has been said above you just need to connect the red and white rca connectors together and then connect the 2 blue amp wires together and it will all work. The red and white connectors will be labelled f/r(front right), r/r(rear right), f/l(front left)...

    Aftermarket head unit woes in my A4 B7

    Do you know which version of xtrons you have bought? The older ones don’t have the blue amp cable but you still should be able to get it working without this. Go into settings and set the fader more to the rear of the car and see if that helps. If not go to factory settings and the code to get...

    Pay the extra and get android 8 model. With regards to the dab you’ll need a proper antenna. The fm/dab splitters don’t work as we have amplified antennas and those splitters only work on passive antennas. The stick on antennas for the windscreen do work but they regularly drop signal so they...

    2006 S3 8P Android headunit advice needed

    Yeah it’s not cheap when you’re trying to sort the car is it. The main thing you’ll find when the new unit arrives and is installed is your sound will be seriously lacking through the Bose. It’s because the unit you’ve ordered will not have a blue power(amp) cable on the speaker rca connections...

    2006 S3 8P Android headunit advice needed

    If that’s what you’ve ordered then send it back when you get it and get a refund. 1. That will not have the correct cabling to work with your Bose. 2. £349 is ridiculously expensive for that unit. 3. That android 6 and the newest operating system is now android 8 which you can get for cheaper...

    2006 S3 8P Android headunit advice needed

    Which unit have you ordered? In regards to dab you’ll need an external aerial. The glass mount ones that go on the windscreen do work as I’ve had a few but in a lot of places the signal drops out or on certain stations the signal is poor. I now have an external aerial that I had to drill a hole...

    Send it back, they’ll refund you. I think you get a month to return it or if you tell them it’s faulty they’ll also let you return it for a refund.

    It’s not that, I’ve had one of these units before so I know to push the cables down. It’s just this one that doesn’t fit right in the opening.

    Android RNS-E

    Thanks. What made you go to all that trouble to make it fit anyway, what problem with fitment did you have? As I said the problem with mine is that it doesn’t go into the dash far enough, I’d say it sticks out an extra 2 or 3mm past the chrome strip so I’m just thinking I don’t actually know if...

    Android RNS-E

    That is brilliant thankyou. When I’ve got time I’ll do that and let you know if it works or not. I’ve already moved the tabs back at the top rear of the unit and the cables are all firmly pushed down into the dash but it doesn’t make any difference it’s just a loose fit. I’ll add the rubber...

    I know it’s a custom home screen. Are you saying that is a android 8 unit then? If so do you know how he got it to fit so well?

    Android RNS-E

    They’re not using a facia, the units are just made to fit as a direct replacement for the Audi unit. I maybe wrong but i don’t think that is an android 8 version from xtrons either.

    Android RNS-E

    That’s good to know so there’s no point me sending this back then to get one of those you had if that has the same issue. Yes I’ve moved those but makes no difference at all. I’ve had one before that were android 6 that looked like rnse. I bought that one from Erisin and that one fit perfect...

    Android RNS-E

    Anyone got an android 8 octo core unit that they have bought from xtrons for an A3? I have got the one that looks like a chorus/symphony unit and although it works perfect, despite my efforts trying to modify it the unit just doesn’t sit in the dash properly as it sticks out a couple of mm. I...
