2022-2023 WRX INFOTAINMENT UPGRADE! // Install Guide //

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Subaru FINALLY updated some hotly requested features on our infotainment system. I have the 2022 WRX Premium and I got tired of having to push multiple buttons to get to places. Im glad that they finally updated the AC controls to make it easier to have 1 button seat warming. This was an issue that others had as well. Also for SPT owners the new display adds the addition of a 1 button Auto Start/Stop. I hope that Subaru finally add full screen android auto to this. I think its still a possibility soon. Lets hope they hear our requests!!

    The Motorola wireless AA dongle made all the difference for me. Once in a blue moon it crashes and all it takes is unplugging it and plugging it back in to fix it. Also if you haven't yet, in that dealer menu make sure the data logger is disabled. Mine was left on from the factory and contributed significantly to the awful instability.

    Any tips if it’s not reading the usb? I’ve tried 3 different usb all formatted to NTFS all above 32gb, and the car just won’t pick it up. I’ll be on the dealer menu , hit software update, plug in the usb slot, and then nothing ever happens.

    Hmm not sure how that would impact the car. It goes through starlink so as long as your car is still connected to their network you should be able to remote start and do everything else (lock / unlock doors and all that jazz). If not I'd check in with the dealer. This is an official Subaru update so they should have more insight.

So when I plug the usb to my phone I have to then turn the bluetooth off and then in again. Then it connects to AA. At least now it ALWAYS connects and I haven't had a random disconnect.
