I understand that. Phone is already capable. Working wirelessly in other vehicles.

Which country did you purchase the Yukon ? I wonder which GCC country has those features enabled. But as GTPprix said, it's not just a software update. There is a piece of hardware that needs to be replaced.

I checked the post of the guy changing the radio, TBH doubt I can do it with ease to get access. If I was confident I could, I'd purchase the radio through WAMS and get it done with. Anyways thanks for your help and clearing it up for me.

oh really? Did not see that coming. The thing is everyone just answered me on the spot. That's why I kept going to different channels and hoping for a positive response. Is there any way it can be added? down the line? I'm thinking if they bring the 2022 model next year and maybe it will be equipped with it, do you think by then, it can be added to my truck through the service center?

I raised a complaint to the head office in the middle east, which is in the UAE, Dubai. Just received a callback from them saying “this feature is of course part of the car but unfortunately Google has disabled the wireless Android Auto for this region, and due to connectivity issues, they only enabled wired connection”. It was a long discussion, basically they can’t help and don’t seem to want to help me achieve this, so they are making excuses. I don’t know how/why Google would decide to do that if the feature is there on other car manufacturers in this same region.

That's what I'm hoping for. Some sort of software hack/jail-break. There is no such thing as it is not allowed here, that's why I came here. I don't really believe what I'm being told at the dealer/service center. There are cars I've seen (from other manufacturers) that have that feature since 2019 here in Qatar.

How/where can you check and verify?

Yeah that was the first things I did. It's just a general enable/disable, it doesn't seem to be related to wireless feature aspect of it at all. Unfortunately mine seems to be without it. It really doesn't make sense but the salesman said it was due to the region they disabled it. In fact, it doesn't even have a wireless hotspot. So many features seem to be missing and honestly I've made my peace with it, except with the wireless android auto, since I actually use it quite a bit. FYI, this is in Qatar (middle east).

Thanks for this, I actually found an article on WAMS, just couldn't find anyone actually going through with the process. I think I'll consider this as my last option. I think the moment I touch any hardware, the warranty gets void. I was hoping for some sort of software tweak. How did you find this post? Did you read the title before you clicked on it?

Hi everyone, I purchased this car after hours of reading and watching reviews and it was pretty standard to assume this car comes with wireless Android Auto and apple car play. However after hours or checking, couldn't figure out why I couldn't access this feature wirelessly. Anyways after checking with the dealer,they told me the batch they brought does not have wireless versions of Android Auto or apple car play. I'm guessing the car must be equipped with it 100% hardware wise, and hoping it is just a matter of enabling it somehow through software or the infotainment system. I wonder if anyone here knows about this issue and knows how to enable it. Sadly I went back to the service center at the dealer and they said they couldn't help. Don't know if it's laziness or they actually have limited capabilities there. Thanks
