Android Auto checked before quoting
VIN and iDrive checked first
Compatibility first
Android Auto is not a one-size-fits-all BMW upgrade.
Some BMWs need a retrofit interface, some support different phone-integration routes, and some setups may not be suitable. OEM Motion checks the real iDrive/head-unit route first so the next step is based on the actual car.
- BMW model, year, iDrive generation and head-unit route reviewed.
- Android Auto, Apple CarPlay and fullscreen layout options checked together where relevant.
- Factory-menu, iDrive controller and steering-wheel control expectations clarified before booking.
- Coventry-based support with nearby areas by arrangement.
What gets checked
A clean route before buying parts.
Vehicle details
Model, year and full VIN are checked privately so the answer fits the exact BMW and installed options.
Factory feel
The aim is a clean factory-style result, sensible controls and no unsupported promise before the compatibility check.
Before you book
Keep the check private and accurate.
- Android Auto support cannot be guaranteed from a model name alone.
- Full VIN should be sent privately, never posted publicly.
- CarPlay, fullscreen CarPlay, iDrive upgrades and coding can be reviewed alongside Android Auto if needed.
OEM Motion is independent and is not affiliated with BMW, Apple or Google. Compatibility depends on the exact vehicle, hardware, software and installed options.
Android Auto FAQ

Can every BMW have Android Auto?

Is Android Auto the same route as CarPlay?
Not always. Some BMWs have different CarPlay and Android Auto routes depending on hardware, software and retrofit kit compatibility.
What should I send for an Android Auto check?
Send your BMW model, year, full VIN privately, current iDrive screen photos, and any version or software screen photos if available.
