BMW CarPlay is activated through a remote cable coding session. It is a very simple process that takes no more than 30 minutes. A coding cable will be required. if you don't have one, please add it to your order from the Add-on Options section at the top of the page. Once you receive it, you will be able to schedule a coding session for the time that suits you best. During the session, just plug in the cable, follow the instructions from our technician and CarPlay will be unlocked.
To prepare for your coding session you will need a laptop running Microsoft Windows and a WiFi internet network that you can connect to in your car. A Mac computer running Windows should work too. The coding cable must be plugged into your laptop’s Ethernet port.
Watch the video to understand the cable activation process better.
Note 1: If you select the the Install it for me option, you don't need to order the coding cable as the engineer will code the unit for you as part of the installation process.
Note 2: It is very likely that you will require the WiFi Antenna. Please add it to your order as CarPlay won’t work without it.
