Apple Carplay / Android Auto WORKS on Nissan Murano 2015, 2016, 2017 models. NO NEW HARDWARE NEEDED! 

Same here man. Easy guy to reach out to

You’re very welcome!

I have a 2015. I love the upgrade. Glad I found this

How much does it cost? What did you saybyou have to do after you install it? Send something back to them?

​@@benhoffman4485​ please be advised I am a customer of this Xanavi product and after installing it on my 2015 Nissan Murano for my dad. Everything seemed fine, but the problem is the entire infotainment system freezes after receiving a call. It will stay frozen for over 5 minutes. Noth8ng will work. The car audio will become mute as if the phone call is in progress well after the call is over until ultimately the system freezes, hangs, and eventually resets. I contacted the Xanavi representative on WhatsApp and I have not received any response besides " I'll look into this". I even provided a detailed video showing the exact issue. Still nothing 2 weeks later.

Donde instalaste necesito esto para mi carro

Thank you! You’re very kind!

Do you know if you got newer Nissan maps?

@@VerbiVeritatis yeah we do, but it's not as great as Google maps or waze....the accuracy is a little off.

How is android auto working for you 2 months in? this.

@IN so far so good man. I was a little on the fence at first. But so far nothing to really complain about except my wife's phone be having some connection problems but mine works fine. I need to check if she needs an update or something but it's been working fine.

I have the same model car. Are you still able to switch between car play screen and XM radio screen or other native car settings displays?

@@shield8430 Yes...the menu button takes you back to the Murano interface

@@artdemers7335 you’ve had no issues at all? I really want this and the cost seems warranted. I always am hesitant though

It totally changes the dynamic!

It is. Make sure to follow instructions. Get a 32gb SD card from SanDisk. Don't deviate

Does your xm radio work too?

I have my phone connected to the aux jack. At least in my experience, it’s sending enough juice to charge my iPhone X.

@GargoyleA2 I am experiencing any issues with phone calls after installation. I installed it and everything seemed good except the infotainment system freezes after receiving a call. It will stay frozen for over 5 minutes. Nothing will work.

@lionintu are you handling the call through CarPlay / Android Auto, or do you still have you phone paired to the car’s Bluetooth the old school way?

I am trying to find the contact for this item. I have a 2016 Nissan murano platinum. Very interested?

I have a link to Xanavi in the description.

I just installed this on my 2015 Nissan Murano Platinum and it's not recognizing when I plug my phone in via USB, did you have any issues with this?

@larrycole1991 no i didnt. Are you using the usb right in the correct port? Be more specific. What phone is it? Which port? Did you try different USB cables?

It looks like they cover the Murano, Maxima, and Leaf.

That’s awesome!

Hi i have a 2015 also and looking on getting this update aswell just wondering if the process of doing the update is complicated? Do i have to use a computer or something?

@@addersonsuarez7008 yes. Watch the video. You need a computer but it isn’t complicated

Not one that I’m aware of, unfortunately.

If you use Android Auto you can buy an Motorola MA1 adapter that lets you connect wirelessly.

They all still work just as you’d expect them to.

No, you’ll need to be connected to the usb port in the center console for this to work. Thanks for commenting!

I'm a few weeks in now, and I'd say that it's been working GREAT! The screen is very responsive, so no complaints there. The only quirk I'd mention is that sometimes after I've started the car, I have to unplug my phone and plug it back in to get Carplay to begin working. Not a huge quirk for me, and it could just as easily be a lightning cable problem as it is the software. I haven't taken the time to try a different cable because it hasn't been a big deal to me, but worth at least mentioning.

@@TechWinnerCC Got it thanks! I reached out to them via Facebook for a price. We're still trying to decide if it's worth the upgrade. Maybe we'll get a deal for doing 2 cars at once.

No, it does not.

Yes, the maps are updated and working.

I don't use the maps but I can see the package I installed on the SD was dated late 2022

At this point, I'm a bit fuzzy on what I did (I'm sorry, this was almost a year and a half ago). I seem to remember that just dragging the files won't work, because they're also being converted to a file format that the car can understand. I'm primarily a Mac user as well, but ended up blowing the dust off of an old Windows machine to do this. I'm sorry that I can't be more help. I will say that the guy I interacted with at Xanavi was very helpful!

@@TechWinnerCC he just got back to me- I think I found the solution- my SD card went corrupt after I tried reformatting it as my own means of troubleshooting. I was trying to copy the images of the download file instead of the .img file itself. Silly, but now I’ll get a new card and fingers crossed it works this time on the Mac. Don’t have access to windows easily. I grew tho- good communication of the company and you too! Thx again.

@@fmdonn Great!

Sorry, Sam. I drink the Apple kool-aid :). I don’t own any Android devices with which to test.

I’m not certain of they have a CA-FR version of that’s what you’re asking. I would advise you to contact Xanavi to confirm. I’m just a customer as well. :) I don’t think the US version includes CA maps. That might not matter to you if you’re using CarPlay/Android Auto. The price is currently $300USD.

It really is like making old hardware new again. Pretty great.

How is android auto working for you 4 months in? this.

You’re very welcome! It’s still working great for my family!

How is android auto working for you 1 month in? I'm seriously considering this.

@@inin725 working perfectly!

@@Julie478 Could you explain to me how it works, suppose a car does not have Car play, when downloading the software automatically installs car play without having to change any lines?

I wrote to the creator but he doesn't answer me :(

Any updates on this?

Just the Murano and Maxima, as far as I know.

Nope. Everything still works perfectly as intended.

Z52 is just code for this generation. Not sure what you mean about non-electric.

Were you able to order through the site?! The site shows a server error and when whatsapped, they asked me to PayPal it to a persons email.. just trying to understand if there could be a scam!

I bought it through their Facebook. Yes, payment was via PayPal.

“We’re” is short for “we are” you meant “were”

@@ArijitaPaulhey were you able to pay through PayPal and get it. Did it actually works? I’m considering ordering it.

​@@maxwell017 Yes. I had some initial concerns, so I decided to reach out to several individuals on Facebook who had shared their experiences on the company's page. It's been over a year now, and it has been working seamlessly for me. Occasionally, I do experience disconnections with CarPlay, but it's not due to any software issues. Overall, I'm quite satisfied with the performance.

Were you able to lower their volumes?

How is android auto working for you 3 months in? I'm seriously considering this.

@@beartunes Nope. Not yet. I had to turn it off.

@@inin725 I don't know what he's talking about. I installed it yesterday with a sine paper of instructions. The. Correspondent was available on whatsapp but he wasn't needed. I have android auto which I been using without problems so far. Apple car play is available but I'm an android guy.

Just to follow-up for android auto users, I installed it and everything seemed good except the infotainment system freezes after receiving a call. It will stay frozen for over 5 minutes. Nothing will work. The car audio will become mute as if the phone call is in progress well after the call is over until ultimately the system freezes, hangs, and eventually resets.

Just Muranos. I believe he also has upgrade options for the Maxima, Leaf, and the Infiniti Q50. Unfortunately, nothing for the Rogue at the time.

Not an issue at all. I’ve put the factory card back in mine to test, and everything works exactly as before.

Yes, Xanavi advertises compatibility with Maximas.

Just Nissan Murano and Maxima, as far as I know.

I handled the entire transaction over Facebook Messenger and PayPal.

Hi Darrel, there’s a link in the description to the Xanavi Facebook Page. I don’t work for them, I’m just a customer as well. :)

@@TechWinnerCC lol that's crazy.

?

@@TechWinnerCC that's crazy what he asked of you

Thanks for the feedback! Just Muranos and Maximas, as far as I know :(

Has it works?

I'm interested to know if it has worked on your 2016 Rogue

Any word on if it worked on your 2016 rouge?

Just the Murano and Maxima models.

Not sure what you mean about the home button. The carplay design changed in iOS 15. The control you're seeing on the lower left corner of the screen is the home button, but you're right it looks different than the old school home button. That's an Apple change, it has nothing to do with this install. Siri can be activated via either "hey siri" or the little "talking head" button on the steering wheel. As far as speed, I don't have much to compare it to, but these units aren't known for having fast storage (many have internal SD cards that are only accessible via a teardown), so I'm reluctant to say that you're giving much up going this route. On the contrary, I didn't have to deal with ripping apart my dash and spending more for new hardware, so at least for me this was the better option. Thanks for commenting!

@@TechWinnerCC thanks for explaining in detail. u re right i missed the new home button look. at this point am just concerned about the speed.am glad siri can still be activated through steering wheel. as long as its responsive as the native unit, should be good. i might buy today

Hold down the talk button on steering wheel

I believe the maps are newer, but I’m not certain on the actual dates. Honestly, I hate the native map UI so much that I never use it. If I were somewhere out of cell range, I’d just use Google maps. I have large portions of my region downloaded for offline use just for this scenario. Xanavi should be able to confirm the particular release date for the built in maps.

I bought a used 2015 murano a year ago and paid ($109 on sale) for the official navteq maps update sd card. It's a waste of money. You'd think there'd be new road segments or poi's or some ui updates. Maybe. But the navi still sux. We bought a 2017 subaru outback a few months later also. Their nav is just as bad. Maybe worse. But sub's update was smooth and less than 10 mins the nissan was this constant back n forth for like 45 mins. The battery got drained running in ON/ACC mode all that time and, (suprise) my alternator died a few days later.

Yeah, generally speaking car makers aren’t great at making navigation interfaces. In newer cars, they’ve all wised up to just deferring to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. I see built in navigation as a stop gap to a problem that ultimately Apple and Google solved.

It’s still working perfectly. Zero complaints!

@sarah, are you able to upgrade ur car with carplay? How was your experience with Xanavi?

did it work? and how much was it?

Yes! It works with all 2015-2017 Muranos. S, SL, and Platinum. Thank you for commenting.

Personally, I have not had any luck getting a wireless adapter to work. I’ve heard from others who have had a similar experience. Sorry, I wish I had better news for you.

As far as I know, Xanavi only supports Muranos and Maximas :(

@@TechWinnerCC Thanks for the reply!

According to Xanavi, just Muranos and Maximas. Thanks for watching and commenting!

I’m not aware of a way to make wireless work. :(

@@TechWinnerCC thats ok. Thank you!

I was wondering this too. Follow up question: does this impact native Bluetooth functionality? Also, can you confirm whether or not the sd card needs to stay in the slot forever in order for it to work? I was wondering if it acted just like those old install CDs that are ejected after software gets installed. Thx in advance for clarifying this, I’ve been wanting CarPlay on my 2016 Murano for awhile

@abunaionnanoko59 I think you’ve asked the SD card question in a couple of places. Leave it in. You have no reason to remove it. As far as Bluetooth, I haven’t had a reason to test it. CarPlay supersedes the need for it in my opinion.

Still working perfectly. I didn’t go into detail on the video, but “rolling back” to the OEM software is as simple as removing the SD card that’s storing the new software.

@@TechWinnerCC Thanks for the reply. When paying over PayPal, did you send as Friends and Family or Goods and Services?

@@TechWinnerCC Also, do you have a social media I can DM you on to ask a little more? Thanks

@@ThexXxCoDGoDxXx feel free to contact me via the info on my about page :)

In this case, wired. You could look into a usb adapter that would allow wireless, but I have not tested this. Thanks for commenting!

Have you tried that? I’m also curious if a wireless adapter will work afterwards

No issues with the android auto freezing after phone calls?

Yep! All the cams still work perfectly just as they should! Thanks for commenting.

Any Murano. S, SL, or Platinum.

I don't believe any updates have been made to this particular software. I believe AA is similar to Carplay in that it's really up to your phone's OS to add any new changes/enhancements to AA itself.

I still love it. Sometimes I have to plug/unplug the cable a couple of times to get it to start. Otherwise, it’s working great!

@@TechWinnerCC which cable are you talking about? The lightning cable from your phone to the display?

@@bimaldimri8817 yes, the lightning cable.

@@TechWinnerCCI noticed that too with a 2020 Altima I rented.

It works with all 2015-2017 Murano models.

Good question. Yes, the existing SD card stores the gps maps. The new SD card will include updated GPS maps.

Did it… waiting for receiving the key file from them now…. I hope it won’t be too long.

@@olivierlazar5776 how did it work out for you

Muranos and Maximas only as far as I know.

Never. I’ve been using it for over year. I’ve never seen it freeze or reboot.

Thank you for your reply

I worked directly with them via FB messenger.

I ran into the same thing. May try messenger

Removing the SD card reverts it back to the old experience.

Did you install it?

I’ve been using it for several months and I have zero complaints. To be fair, I didn’t use it for very long on the old software, so I may not have as solid of a before/after comparison as you, but I have zero complaints with lag.

@@TechWinnerCC thank you for your quick reply. I have just contacted the guy and he explained me the process. but I do wanna ask you few questions if you have few minutes to help me out since you have already done it. 1- does Bose audio sound same as before? 2- when you turn on the car, the screen boots up same as factory or it takes time? 3- does your parking sensor make sound as before or its lower? 4- before installation, you have to remove ur factory sd card and install the new sd card with img file right, once the installation starts and its done. do I have to remove the sd card or it should remain inside until I see the barcode? and what should I do with factory sd card?

1. I Don't have a good answer for you on this. My wife primarily drives this car, and we did the upgrade pretty quickly after buying the car. I'm not an audiophile nor do I blast music, but I think it sounds good. 2. Same as above. It's happening in a matter of seconds. I haven't sat in the car and consciously thought, "this is taking forever to load". 3. Yes, sensors and backup / 360 cams work perfectly. 4. The new SD card will stay in the Murano. If you take it out, the head unit reverts back to the original software. Kinda nice to know that you have a "downgrade" option I suppose. I have the factory card sitting in my desk drawer :)

@@TechWinnerCC Thank you so much for your time to answer my questions. I have purchased it and waiting for my car to test it. My only concern was can I revert back to factory software, if by removing the SD card it will revert to original then that is awesome.

@@sambuluccihello were able to get it to work? And how is it? I’m considering ordering it.

Murano and Maxima only as far as I know. Thanks for commenting!

Link is in the description.

Hi Sam, It’s my understanding that if/when new updates become available you can get them from Xanavi. You’d put the update on your SD card and still be able to use your licensed .dat file to make it work. I haven’t had a new update since installing, so I haven’t gone through this process. As far as CarPlay/Android Auto specific updates, your phone is the brains behind those, so any updates to either platform would be due to iOS or Android updates to your phone.

@@TechWinnerCC thanks Dwayne one last question if you don't mind. Have you guys encountered any sudden shutdowns while using the infotainment system?

None. The only quirk is one that I mentioned before in the comments: sometimes I have to plug my iPhone in a couple of times before CarPlay works. I’m not sure if it’s the phone, the cable I’m using, or a hardware/software issue. Mildly annoying, but not a showstopper in my opinion.

@@TechWinnerCC thanks buddy. I just purchased it and it's working great with me. However, I did face the issue you are talking about here but once I used the cable out of box since then it didn't happen to me. So you should probably use a apple genuine cable.

@@TechWinnerCC The quirk with having to plug in then unplug is also on my 2022 Toyota Highlander that comes stock with Car play and Android Auto. I figure it has nothing to do with Xanavi.

Not gonna lie, I had to Google “x-trail”. We call that the Nissan Rogue in the US. Xanavi only supports Muranos and Maximas at this time :(

They will send you very detailed instructions on what to do. The files were sent to me via Google Drive.

@@TechWinnerCC From google drive you would just transfer it to your SD card? That is all I am confused about, everything else sounds really straightforward. Appreciate your fast response. Best regards!

I believe this still only supports the Murano and Maxima.

Not sure what you mean. I’ve only updated my Murano to enable CarPlay this one time, but it’s continuing to work after each iOS update, if that’s what you mean.

Nice! I don’t use Sirius XM on a regular basis, but the preview channel works fine. I believe the issue you’ve mentioned was addressed a long time ago with the version I installed a year ago.

So I did this! Best $$ I’ve spent. Process was flawless. Great communication with seller. I have factory CarPlay and all other features work just as they did

I seem to remember that being advised, but I didn’t do it. If your battery is healthy I don’t believe you’re at real risk of damaging anything. Running the engine is the safest way to prevent a power drop though.

Unfortunately, no. Just Muranos and Maximas.

Just like you did before. CarPlay is basically an “app” that you can navigate in and out of, similar to the built in navigation app. You can have CarPlay up on the screen and still listen to the radio. And I still get radio info on the screen in my instrument cluster as well.

Thanks

Murano and Maxima only.

No, I use the usb port in the center console.

I don’t believe that’s an option, as they’re based out of Eastern Europe. It would just add cost and wait times. Might be worth reaching out and asking them though.

Contact Xanavi. I’ve put a link to their Facebook page in the description. 👍

Muranos and Maximas only.

You’ll need to contact Xanavi. I put a link in the description. Thanks for commenting.

Muranos and Maximas only, as best I can tell.

Unfortunately, no. Only the 2015 and newer models.

100%. Man I love those cameras.

As far as I know, this is only compatible with Muranos and Maximas.

@@TechWinnerCC Thank you.

No, completely separate systems. You have nothing to worry about.

Thank you so much for the reply!

Totally happy with it! Zero regrets

Have you contacted Xanavi?

@@TechWinnerCC I have, they don’t know what to do they’re gonna get back to me tomorrow

Unfortunately no. I believe Xanavi only supports Murano, Maxima, and Leaf models at this time. Thanks for commenting!

Your best option will be to contact Xanavi directly. I’m just a customer as well :)

@@TechWinnerCC ok good.. thx alot

I’ve been using this in my wife’s car for nearly two years now, and it’s still working great!

Wired. I have a usb to lightning cable plugged in to the usb port in the center console, in the pocket near the cupholders.

It is not free.
