MyLink update?

[Sir Les]

It says that it will be rolled out to all Holdens, not just new ones. Anybody heard anything?

No, but did you see the tweet response at the right of the page saying, "there will be a cost for the update. We recommend checking this with your preferred dealership."?

I'll pay for CarPlay. It will make me keep my Calais.

If you go in and read the tweet, the guy is asking about map updates for the sat nav.
My car is due now for a service so I will see what I can find out.

There was no mention of CarPlay or Android Auto being made available on the Commodore range :-(

Lauren: Thanks for contacting us, Josh
Lauren: At this stage, we anticipate a satellite navigation map update for the series I VF Calais-V in the first quarter of this year however, it has not been released as yet.
Josh Rogan : was there one issued in 2014 ?
Lauren: One moment, Josh, I'll check that for you.
Lauren: Thanks for your patience, Josh. Apologies for the delay.
Lauren: As the series I VF began as the model year 2014, a satellite navigation map update was not made available in that year. The map update we're currently waiting was anticipated for the end of 2015 however, it has been delayed until the start of this year.

Anybody care to ask them about the Apple/Android play update for VF? Can't do it on my work computer

 

[DanielSS-V]

What happened to Josh? Did he ever say goodbye or just drop the keyboard and walk away boss style? Is he a ninja? Did he close the window? Did his mum ban him from talking to Holden for bad manners? Is he lost on an unmarked road his GPS can't get him off?


Josh? Hello? Everyone at Holden is worried sick.

Android auto and apple car play will be nice. I bet my iPod is still going to take an hour to index every time I start the car

Someone who sounded like they knew what they were talking about said, about a year ago, that the Commodore version of MyLink wasn't capable of doing Car Play or Android Auto for hardware rather than software reasons.
While it'd be nice if that was wrong, I'm not hoping for 'em to be available for Commodore. Unless a new MyLink happens for MY2017 (unlikely IMHO).
