BMW 6GC Android Auto?

[Chris0288]

Quick Q

Does anyone know if you can get an update to allow Android Auto on the F series cars? I've got a 67 plate 6GC and I think I can enable Apple Carplay if I buy the OTA rip off via connected drive, but Android Auto isnt there.

However

From this web page @ BMW, it seems to suggest in point 5 further down the page:

"However, the following models: BMW 5, BMW 6, BMW X3 and BMW X4 can get Android Auto only via a Software Update at the Dealership."

I phoned my local dealer and the person said they have no idea

Has anyone managed to get Android Auto on F series?

What level of iDrive do you have? ID6 probably if you can buy Apple Carplay, right? If so, there's no official way to get AA, but it can be achieved using aftermarket interfaces. I've fitted one on my ID6-equipped F30: https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&...
