Getting rid of Blue & Me
Discussion
I'm very close to ditching the OEM head unit in my Alfa and replacing it with something better. Even a potato would be an improvement.
From what I can gather replacing the headunit isn't too tricky but you have to keep the abysmal Blue & Me system in place; if it's not detected by the CANBUS system it mucks up the odometer apparently.
if the Blue & Me box was removed can the system be coded to tell the car that Blue & Me isn't fitted any longer?

Is it a Giulietta, I think the Blue&Me box was removed from mine before purchase, I had the flashing odd-meter but local alfa guy with a laptop did some kind of re-sync and the flashing stopped.
If it's a G let me know where the box should be and I can check if mine has actually been removed or just doesn't work.
Everything else works fine on mine, just no Bluetooth, no windows button, no call options.

It's a 159. Good to know it can be coded out, thanks for that.If it's a G let me know where the box should be and I can check if mine has actually been removed or just doesn't work.

The headunit I have lined up has Apple Car Play and Bluetooth so I'm keen to avoid any Bluetooth clashes (if that even exists?) between the new and the old.
