I read online, that after you change the head unit from MIB1 to MIB2, you need to do some coding. Can you tell what needs to be coded? A list or something. Thanks :)
@@MtlCarGarage On this, wondering if you can help with more details: I'm replacing my 2013 Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020) MIB1 with a MIB2 I don't have canton, so I just brought the radio/screen units and a new usb port. I can get the specs of my car using the VIN I'm guessing but where can I get a guide on how to do the coding, I'm not sure where to start with this at all
I retrofit mib 2 from mib1... Dealer was deactivate the protection But now usb phone and gps is dead...can you help me with teamviewer? Can you coded??
Hi. You seem to have been very helpful to other replies, so wondered if you could help. I have a Skoda Yeti with a 'Bolero' head unit which only has 'Mirrorlink' software. It is an MIB2 Standard PQ Radio plus EU/ROW (what-ever that means). I have had my local Skoda dealer try to install 'Smartlink' on my Bolero, but with no success, as apparently this unit cannot be upgraded to Smartlink. Therefore, I have suggested upgrading to a newer 'Bolero' or 'Columbus' Unit (I missed-out by about 2 weeks, as there was a change over around week 25/2015 to the newer smart link unit. Also, I may not bother connecting sat-nav due to the hassle, but probably add additional Ariel(s) for DAB), but dealer saying that they do not want to get involved in this new/newer head unit as there is no guarantee that they could get it to work properly due to the coding and security matching to the chassis? I understand it may not be an un-plug and plug-in, but if the dealer can't do it, what hope has anyone else? Any suggestions?
@@zero696 What's even more confusing, is that when the Yeti was first supplied new, Skoda included an information brochure of their 'SmartGate' system which could be added (with a charge) at a later date, but 4 years later and this appears also not to be able to be fitted????!!!!
Hi Igor, Could you send the link to purchase such a unit? I also want to add the android auto and carplay functions in my MIB2 2015, which only has mirrorlink.
Lahko se vgradi komplet Columbus MIB2. Recimo kot je tole: th-cam.com/video/s1NIAFKcMQs/w-d-xo.html Za konkretne ponudbe nas kontaktirajte na info@mtl.si

@@MtlCarGarage kaj pa admaturski ekran (maxidot display) a ima potem tudi od mib2 grafike.
Hi there,

I read online, that after you change the head unit from MIB1 to MIB2, you need to do some coding. Can you tell what needs to be coded? A list or something.

There is no coding that fits all cars. The coding needs to be done according to cars equipment and options.
@@MtlCarGarage so you have to code for example the reverse camera if you have one, rain sensor, etc.?
Yes.

How can the coding be done? With obd?
where can I order the necessary parts?
where did you purchase the new MIB2?
I retrofit mib 2 from mib1...
Dealer was deactivate the protection
But now usb phone and gps is dead...can you help me with teamviewer?
Can you coded??
Hello there, when swapping from mib 2 to mib 2, do you have to swap displays aswell??
Usually no, check the output resolution of the unit.
Hi, how do you activated smartlink?
Please can you tell me part code of MIB2 unit to replace MIB1?
How can I see if my radio is MIB 1 or MIB 2 ?
Via part nr. or check the number of languages. MIB1 have much smaller number of languages.
@@MtlCarGarage Are the MIB1 and the MIB2 Android based??
@@geraldbrogan696 No.
Hi. So the screen unit stays the same, only the processing unit and the usb are changed? is this a plug and play or cables need adapting too? thanks!
No, no cable adaptation is needed, except removing a piece of plastic on a connector. But the coding is needed.

You need to get prepared unit for installation in any car and it will function.
@@MtlCarGarage How do I go about getting a head unit prepared for installation in any car? What do I /supplier, need to do?
I'm also interested in this

was wird da alles getauscht?
pls octavia 3 07 ,2013 go Columbus MIB1 to MIB2 upgrade - with SmartLink
You sell the units? Do they need extra coding or you send it already fully coded?
Sorry, I do not offer this retrofit anymore.
Hi. I have just bought a 2013 skoda superb with the lower spec radio/cd. Is this unit a straight forward replacement/upgrade?
No, Superb 2 uses older generation units.
Hi Igor,
Currently I have only Mirror Link available in my Passat 2014-2015, is possible to activate(enable) Apple CarPlay and Android Auto?
Hi,
sadly no. Unit needs to be changed.
Hi Igor,

It cannot be added, unit needs to be changed.
Hola ,puede poner subtitulos?? Soy español y no lo entiendo. Gracias
ali se za smartlink samo odklene kakšna funcija v radiu ali je potreben kakšen fizični dodatek (imam bolero amundsen...)
V kolikor enota tega ne podpira (ne piše, da je potrebno vnesti kodo za aktivacijo SmartLinka), je potem žal potrebna menjava enote.
Se da tako stvar narediti tudi za Bolero sistem brez navigacije?
Ali želite komplet nadgradnjo na Columbus MIB2 ali le SmartLink nadgradnjo?
MtlCarGarage kompletno, če pa se to ne da pa le nadgradnjo za smartlink
Lahko se vgradi komplet Columbus MIB2. Recimo kot je tole: th-cam.com/video/s1NIAFKcMQs/w-d-xo.html Za konkretne ponudbe nas kontaktirajte na info@mtl.si
MIB 2 doesn't have SMARTLINK? Only Apple Car??
Apple CarPlay is a part of Smart-Link.
@@MtlCarGarage in the car's menu there's only the Apple Car option, no SMARTLINK option
@@Cristian_Florentin That is because Iphone was connected to Columbus...
