Hi, is there any available update for Mylink?

Sam Ji · 08-15-2019, 10:25 AM

Hi guys, I bought a certified pre-owned 2016 Camaro 2LT a few days ago. My car has an 8-inch infotainment system, and the version of Mylink is 23415881. The problem is, it only shows Apple Carplay in settings. As a user of Android, I'm really embarrassed that I can't find the Android Auto. I think it should be compatible with AA. Therefore, I just want to know whether it can be solved through the update, and if so, do I need to pay for updating? Please leave any comments related to this situation.
Thanks

The 2016 MyLink cannot be upgraded. There are several threads on this in the Audio sub forum.

Yes it can be updated to have android auto.

Take it to the dealer and let them know. They may charge, but a android update is available.

The Android auto update became available around April or May of 2016 if I remember right. My 2016 SS originally only had Apple Car Play. The dealer added the Android auto update later. They should be able to apply it. Its just a software update. It was no charge back when I got mine done.

Honestly, the best upgrade is to make all useless devices 2016-2019 with AA wireless and mirror screen from phone to touch screen with full control by touch. It takes time, but it worth it!

That's good to hear bro.

I bought my 2016 after the upgrade was available and made it a condition of my purchase that they install it. All you need to do is ask at the dealer.
