Thanks for the great video. I have one of these I've just installed in my Audi A3 2016 - seems I have the same MMI system as yours. I did all the installation and screen is working for Android auto with maps etc, but no sound from any apps. I heard you have to activate AUX but can't find any info on how to do this. Do you know what I need to get the audio to work?
Hey thats nice to hear! Did you order at audiovolt as well? I had the same problem at first. You need to go into the OEM system, to media. Then you want to change input from Bluetooth to AUX. Now everytime the system boots up, it will use the AUX audio from your carplay system :)
Hey there, can you maybe tell me more in Detail where you placed the audiovolt box? I have Everything dissasembled Glove box and want to put it on the best place. Also the Cables are a Bit Long and i dont know where to keep them Togheter… on top they are disturbing so i cant fit in the glove Box back in… thank you in advance
Good question! The carplay module uses a wifi connection, which is initiated with a bluetooth connection on startup. The module knows the CAN identifier of the OEM microphone and therefore knows how to use this. You basically don’t need the car bluetooth anymore
Hi! do you know if these kind of systems require a music interface to aux adapter to work? Mi a3 has bluethooth and a music interface but i read on some forums that an adapter may be required for it to work correctly, or does this particular unit route the audio through the central system cables? ( the pink and grey coaxials in the glovebox). thanks in advance
On mine they supply the ami aux adaptor which must be connected in the centre console so that the aux input can be chosen. You don't actually write it up to anything though.
Nopee, on older systems you only needed to put it in for the car to recognize the aux in the mmi… Than you can just use that as your audio input. But as said, you don’t need to do any of that with this system
I think we see your speed in the end of the video, I hope you are in germany ! Thanks for this How to very usefull. I'd like to do the same on my e-tron but I dunno If It'll fit because of the hybride system (2015) (it has additionnal menu)
Haha yess this was in Germany! It does still fit the E-Tron hybrid system. You can switch between carplay and the oem system so no problems there… just hold the Menu button to switch
@@DamnFast I just fit this unit in my A3 e-tron from 2015, it appears to work but I cannot get any image of android auto on my screen... Everything does connect like it should and I do have sound via the AUX input like you described. I thought it was my dip switches, double checked those but they should be fine. Any idea why everything but the display works?
You skipped over so many parts... for someone who does not have any experience in installations, this is extremely confusing and misleading.

I just tried disabling Bluetooth as you mentioned in video and the Aux option appeared which I selected. Audio works perfectly now. Thanks! 🙏🏻
It's not the Audiovolt but a similar one. Audiovolt looks better quality than the one I got though.
How does the screen on the drivers dash work after this install, as the original set up is very well integrated with the popup screen?

It don’t have touch mode ?
Do you lose the Audi Proximity sensors alerts while on Android Auto/Carplay?
Nope it still works with the oem parking sensors :)
How can you connect your phone wirelessly if you turn off bluetooth if you want to use your factory fitted mic ?
Good question! The carplay module uses a wifi connection, which is initiated with a bluetooth connection on startup. The module knows the CAN identifier of the OEM microphone and therefore knows how to use this. You basically don’t need the car bluetooth anymore
My device wont work with oem Mic?
How can you order AudioVolt in the USA?
Hii Im sorry thats currently not possible… Or we could order one and send it to your location
Where can I find a similar apple carplay in the US? Or how much would it be for you to order and send to me @@DamnFast
Hi there
How I can order in uk ?
Ziet er goed uit. Weet nog niet of ik het wil. Behalve het feit dat het gelikt is, wat is de meerwaarde? (Heb all obb dongel voor software aanpak)

@@Ryzza5 oh well that's nice, so i dont have to pass the adpter to the central tunnel under the shift lever? that's whats buggin me
Hii, this system does that internally. So you do not need a separate aux ami connector. A lot of older systems do still need this tho…
Nopee, on older systems you only needed to put it in for the car to recognize the aux in the mmi… Than you can just use that as your audio input. But as said, you don’t need to do any of that with this system
@@DamnFast that's even better! thanks!
Does this only allow sound via Aux?
How can I make it fullscreen? I hate how it looks
Installed and no longer brings ip audi mmi screen
Does this Work in any language?
Yes sure! It just mirrors your phone
The bad news is that Audio Volt they do not send products outside of Europe, they answered me by email.
Any chance to order in uk ?
Do you want one?
@@DamnFast yes I would like to purchase one
My Audi it is 2014
It is compatible?
I want one too. In Ireland. Does it work on japanese imports?
Can you also build this system into a 2013 VW Golf?
Yess you can actually do that! Audiovolt has a module for the MIB 1 and MIB 2 systems!
