Audi A1 (GB) – Activation of Wireless CarPlay and Android Auto (Coding)

The vehicle must have an enabled USB wired CarPlay connection (Audi Smartphone Interface) and a MIB2 Plus with MH2p system must be running firmware P2470 or higher (MH2p_ER_AUG35_P2470) or M IB3.

Do not connect your Apple device via USB!
Make sure WIFI hotspot is enabled in MMI settings.
On your iPhone under Settings -> Wi-Fi your car should show up with ***_5GHZ.
Pair your Apple device with Bluetooth, it should now ask if you want to enable CarPlay.
If not, delete the pairing, connect to the car’s Wi-Fi from the Apple device first, then try pairing via Bluetooth again.
