Very good product once fitted however the initial installation was difficult as there didn’t seem to be any instructions the only direction I got was how to set it up once it was fitted but other than that it’s cracking and look smart and seamless
The software is good, my issue with this unit, is it overlaps the original hole that the old unit came out of, and as lightly overlaps the child lock and locking buttons to the side of the old unit, the fixings are not very good at all, I had to think up some other way to hold it steady on the dash, the other thing is I can only switch it on when the ignition is on, not good for a campervan, I presume there is a way of running an extra live wire with a switch to power it up without the ignition switched on, it's installed and working fine, apart from these issues hence only three stars
Despite an assurance from customer support that the unit would be compatible with my 2019 Skoda Superb, the bezel on this unit, sadly, is marginally different at the top, leaving a slight but noticeable gap in each corner. Emailed customer support, who were completely understanding and advised me to return the unit. They received the unit on the Monday and by Saturday I had a refund - excellent and efficient customer support.
Just the job
Absolutely love it. This radio and surround have bought my old Mitsubishi l200 Animal into this century. I have to work out how to make notifications louder when listening to music but I am sure this is just a settings thing. The stereo does way more than I expected with Google assistant and the surround that came with the radio fits perfectly and make it look like it has always been there.
Nice unit but would not work on my vehicle
Good commuications AI generated but showed links to videos unfortunatley not compatible with my car so refunded
Replaced our factory unit as connecting bluetooth was becoming a pain. It would take two minutes just to get it to realise our phones were connected.
This unit is a headache in different ways. No instructions for install or use, though we figured it out.
The convoluted settings are a nightmare. Whenever we turned the air con dial it would bring up a dedicated screen—that didn’t work!—and then close it, and then open the same screen again two seconds later. It took forever to find the setting to turn that off
There are so many gremlins with connecting this to airplay/android etc. It sometimes refuses to disconnect even when we turn the bluetooth off on our devices!
The plastic feels cheaper than the original, and the piece that surrounds the dials is flimsy and falls off.
On a good day, it takes seconds for us to connect - which is an improvement over our old model. I also appreciate the maps feature is much better. Haven’t tried radio. There’s also a chrome app and various others I cannot fathom the need for. Sensors all work well and the screen indicates distance which was not in our base model.
On a bad day, I have turned the car off and on again, opened and shut doors, turned my phone off and deleted the car from the bluetooth settings and STILL can’t listen to my music.
There must be a better option than this, for the price.
The product works very well and looks very good. There are a few technical settings and software updates that would be beneficial to make it more integrated into the Audi systems. I am waiting for contact from the customer services / technical department, to see if these issues can be overcome. Other than that, the functionality is very good, although the boot up process is a little slow.
Great product.
But lost steering wheel controls.
Very good service and after sales advice
Just installed this despite receiving no instructions with the product on how to do so. Firstly I was shocked when I realised it didnt have DAB, despite the old unit it was replacing having this. Secondly, the WIFI wont connect for more than 2 seconds meaning I cannot sign into the play store to download the many apps it doesn't have as standard. Not happy with this product, and I'm not paying extra for something I already had!
Head unit is great I’m having issues with the radio signal
Great kit, easy to install works great so far, you will need the mic
It's not a simple plug and play. Just a few things regarding the fitment to the Skoda Fabia III 2015. You need to power the antenna if your not getting decent reception. Remember to update your apps and also be mindful of the correct canbus settings as there are not many for the Skoda Fabia.The original Skoda data takes a while to populate.
Excellent communication from Drivecast Customer Services if you get stuck as the manual/user guide is very basic when it comes to installation.
Seem like a good product. Fit perfectly.
Item as Described happy with stereo head unit good communication Delivery was longer then expected overall happy with my purchase
It’s ok, but I can’t get the resolution sorted
Also can’t listen to radio and have maps on the screen without the sound being interrupted
The car stereo I purchased from Drivecast is fantastic and does exactly what I wanted it to. There was a problem with the wiring harness being supplied with the wrong connector but I contact their support team and they identified the correct component and I received it 2 days later. I would highly recommend their products and will be using them again in the future.
Lack of support, no reply to questions
Where can I get installation instructions. I've lost mine? I cannot find the USBOOX file they refer to.
The camera seems to be good quality but as I am unable to install it I can't comment on performance.
Aftertrying to get radio fitted by a professional.
Found out it doesn't fit.
SO.
Not very happy.
Hopefully a refunf
It works fine but doesn’t work with steering wheel controls !
False advertising and they delete bad reviews and just blank emails
Was told it would work with my steering wheel controls and it doesn’t , when I reached out they weren’t any help - if they can fix this I’d happily amend this review cause the actual system is great it’s just annoying as the description stated “ retain steering wheel controls”
Still waiting on technical support for a reversing camera issue
