How stable and reliable is your Car Play link ?
I feel like its a hit and miss for me, works 90% of the time in the morning commute, lunch time almost 50%, and going home in the afternoon 75% chance it will sync up.
Am I alone in this wireless struggle ? |

Hello,
You may want to add WiFi Antenna. Pretty simple installation. Antenna costs around 5 USD for replacement and 20 USD for OEM.

This...I just installed mine that I got from alibaba. $5 and probably 5 minutes of time. Connected right up after installing the antenna whereas without it it was hit or miss if it would connect and stay connected.

Anyone have a link to the wireless antenna? I have a 2018 with carplay coded in. Very hit/miss whether or not it syncs within the first minute or two. If it doesnt sync, its pretty much hopeless unless i restart the car, or the phone.

definitely get the antenna. I had the same issues because the wifi signal the vehicle produces is almost non existent without the antenna.

Aftermarket one you can just plug to the headunit and leave it there. It will work without any issues, and do its job. Thanks

This morning I found a pic that seems to indicate it might go under the floorpan carpeting and lay in the passenger footwell Last edited by IK6SPEED; 11-09-2019 at 03:39 PM.. |
