Hi

ive bought my etron in Germany and exported it Israel and to my disappointment it didn’t come with Carplay. Can I install an original Carplay in my etron? If so how?


thanks

Theoretically, when the Function on Demand will work (if Audi ever make it to work which is big question mark), this is one you can buy (Smartphone interface which includes Carplay and Android Auto).

Is it working in any country? Audi stated it would be coming mid 2019 and crickets since. It's pretty poor to put it in a press release and then say nothing afterward. If it's delayed, it's delayed but say so. I'm wondering if it's available in some countries and not others. Every time I ask Audi of America about it, they have no idea what Function on Demand even is.

FoD does not work anywhere. It worked for 2 days for Audi A4 in Germany. It appeared in myAudi for Audi A4 users, but of course it was an Audi software f*ckup (what is new). Audi tried FoD software, but it should have never reached the customer website. This was supposed to be just an in-house trial. Never worked for the customer either, it was the usual incompetent Audi software engineering. After two days they realized that the customer can see it and tried to order it, thus they deleted it from the customer website. This happened around two weeks ago.

LOL! They should be called out for misleading press releases then. Don't announce a release date and then not deliver or say it's delayed.

They're selling it on the e-Tron Sportsback press release as well. It's misleading to promote something that isn't available and use it as a selling point.....Customization after the purchase: Functions on demand
The Audi e-tron Sportback** is a standard-bearer for the new digital services and business areas that the brand is opening up. One of these is the “functions on demand” offering, which covers functions from the areas of light, driver assist systems, and infotainment. The customer can book them online—on demand and at any time. Even after they have taken delivery of their car, the customer can now continually customize it to their individual requirements. Every function can be obtained for varying periods—monthly, annually, or permanently. Functions are booked either via the myAudi app or on the myAudi online portal and paid for conveniently and securely via AudiPay.

In the lighting package, customers can upgrade the LED headlights to matrix LED headlights with intelligent high-beam control. This provides additional functions such as daytime running lights with the e-tron signature as well as front and rear dynamic turn signals. When the e-tron Sportback is locked and unlocked, the headlights and rear lights provide an expressive showcase of the electric SUV. To begin with, park assist will be available as an add-on option for the assist systems. The infotainment package includes the Audi smartphone interface and the Audi connect navigation & infotainment package.
