Android auto for vw touareg


OK took me a bit to get it ll working.
I fiddled a bit here and there to make it work.
Tearing dash apart as that goes. But it's way better than my previous after market box from joyauto. That thing didn't do day night mode. Screen crashed a lot . But this unit feels like it's factory . Just about everything works fantastic. People can hear me on phone . And only need one Bluetooth connected. Old unit had 2 as the joyauto didn't work very well for phone. This unit is fantastic. buttons on steering work too. Can skip music from steering buttons. Screen 10 inches is nice. I'm very happy. The lady (Jane) was very helpful with my questions. I'm not completely setup but very happy. So the instructions were there but were confusing to me at first. . I'd say it helps to be a bit technical.
So the negative gripes is ( I lost the cd player. ) the harness is unplugged from back of cd player. That was not known or stated anywhere. So just beware. I will say the car feels like a 2014 vw touareg now. Only thing I can't figure out is oil level. And haven't got the vehicle settings to work properly yet. But Jane has helped any and all questions.

Just to make sure your car does have Optical plugged into back of Stereo cd player. This harness provides that connection to rca into back of the head unit. Comes with a blue box Optical and rca, so that's the only way sound works. The dash screen loses audio and phone settings . Only new head unit uses Bluetooth only.

this is the box that gives sound from rca. To Optical.
