Nice to have Wireless Carplay

[Chris Eversole]

HI all,

I ordered a CarPlay Adapter from carlinkitcarplay.com. Carlinkit is from China. It utilizes the factory screen and mmi/ami system. $99 seems like a fair price.👍

I use wireless CarPlay with my iPhone.

I'm still waiting for mine. I paid for express shipping but It has been a week and still not arrived. I can't wait to use this. I'll let you know about reliability, disconnection issues.

If it's coming from china it could take ages.

Just a follow-up on this. I have been using the unit now into my second month and it has performed perfectly. I have had only occasional disconnects, but that was followed by reconnection and then no problems. I understand that some are posting that they have issues, but I have not experienced any real problems personally. Maybe it just works better with my vehicle.

Glad it's working well ☺️

Hello, I have an Audi A8 from 2007 and I only have a CD reader. I would like to adapt a Car Play system, what do you recommend?

Hi, Rares

If your car does not have wired carplay, maybe the one Im using does not work for your Audi A8 2007.

To get Apple CarPlay on a car that doesn’t come with it, there’s one path: you need a new head unit which supports CarPlay. And then you can add a Autokit to get wireless carplay.
