Discover Pro 8" System in Australia - problems, solutions & VW dealers

[DV52]

Correction
DAB+ is an option on Discovery Media Unit
You need to replace the unit with DAB unit and get the CP removed by VW.
You will also need a DAB antenna.
Confusion has been cleared. Example part number with DAB 5G0035858 with PR QV3

Mr/Ms Liquidforce: many thanks for chasing up this matter- much appreciated!

Are there 8" units with car play and mirror link yet?

VW central is doing some work on this, they have the 8" screen for sale and are working on the mirrorlink. They have the google map + WLAN version too.

Will Euro upgrades be stocking at any stage the new Discover Media units with Mirrorlink?
I'd be interested in getting the 8" Screen with the new Discover units.

I've seen a video of an 8" Discover Media Pro screen running a VW Polo's main control
Video is >>>> HERE <<<<
As described its the Gen 1 8" Discover Media Pro screen, running the Gen 2 MIB unit.

One would assume that this could be possible as you guys have done a great job getting the Gen 1 units to work.
Any info would be great for us owners looking for the upgrade with mirrorlink/apple carplay

We have successfully activated MirrorLink option on 2015 VW Polo a week back:
Check the gallery via this link
MIB2 units will be available once the map gets released in 2016 for them.
Generally 6.5" unit are a downgrade from Discovery Pro in general terms, just be aware of that guys.

What about the 8" Discover Pro with Apple Car Play? Also with the 6.5" unit, if that replaced a 5.8" Discover Nav, will the Apple integration work from the existing USB ports that Australian cars are fitted with? Currently they don't recognise iPods/iPhones

Discovery Pro does not support it at the moment. Maybe a Software Update in the future. At the moment, none of the units we know support it.

Mirror link was activated on 2015 Polo with MIB2 by us but Apple Car Play is the melody of the future. 2016 maybe if not 2017...
