Hi, amazing this system, I have a Audi R8, and I live in France, how can I have this system ? only USA ? I can have a order in a website and delivery in France ?
I recently bought “ACARNAVI Audi R8 V8 V10 2007-2015 Gen 2 Android 12” for my Audi. Here is my experience: • There is no manual to the system! • The system doesn’t support fading the front/rear loudspeakers by hardware despite the is an app where you can alter the center position of the sound • It seems there is no support (cable) to the subwoofer • The system can’t saturate the B&O amplifier like the original system -> you can’t play as loud with Audi system • I it possible to apply a SIM card to the system - I think it only works for navigation - wasn’t able to get to work for phone calls. • The radio (FM based) was not working (not able to receive any station). The build-in antenna works fine with Audis radio and the supplied adapter cable seems to be ok • Noise from cars ignition system does appear in the loudspeakers - that problem was solved in car radios 30 years ago • It is not possible to turn the system off • There is no support from the seller I’m not impressed about this China hardware, and I decided to return to the seller (no response) and start a charge back on my credit card. DON’T BY IT!!!
Brilliant! Taking delivery of a 2012 R8 V 10 next week. This stock infotainment system was the only disappointing thing on the test drive. I just resolved to live with it. Then I found your vid! Will probably elect to take it to a shop for install. I am not that brave to be tearing into an R8 unsupervised! Thanks a million times!
Hello, just seen your video, great perseverance. I'd have given up the installation for fear of damaging something. Well done. I have a 2011 Manual V10 RHD. I was thinking of installing a genuine Audi R8 reversing camera - do you think it would work with this unit and retain the dynamic parking lines? I live in NZ but the car is being shipped from the UK.
hi, have you get a manual ? because I buy this modèle for my R8, but I have a probleme, I do a wrong connection at back of autoradio, and I clipped autoradio. Now, I don't remove this autoradio for do the right connection ... DO YOU KNOW HOW TO REMOVE this autoradio ?? ;(;( ... NOT manual in the box ;(
yo Roger can u not change your steering wheele to the new one as well? and change the cockpit virtual screen to the new one? or does that new ones of the r8 not fit in the old one like this?
How are you enjoying the unit after using it for a while? Any issues?I just received mine today. I was surprised there were no instructions. The manufacturer directed me to your video only.

Hello, thank you from France for this video! If you have Bang & Olufsen sound system, did you notice a difference (cheaper audio quality for example)? Thx, and wish you the best.
Roger. Good video but can you show a photo of the back of the Acarnavi unit with the plugs connected ? I just bought one and can't get it connected as one of the connectors (Rectangular one about 2 cms long) does not fit .

Hey Roger! I installed this radio in my car a while back but didn’t know that the reverse camera can be connected. Did they include that long adapter cable?
I ordered this unit....they sent the wrong model and the "carbon fiber" wrapping was damaged. Many attempts to return the unit has been met with radio silence (possibly the hard lockdown in Shangai has something to do with it) . My installer also commented the unit was of inferior quality just by the "feel" alone. I ended up ordering the Kenwood unit.
Are you sure you ordered the right unit? Go through the link in my description. I don’t think they even have a carbon fiber option. U bought from another company.
I'm def going to do this when I get my 2012-2014 r8. But I'm going to have mine done and installed for me from a car shop or something 🤣fuck doing all that myself lol
Hey roger great video. I purchased one of these headunit for my manual transmission R8. Do you know anyone that did the install for a manual transmission. I cannot get the back up camera to work bc I need to tap into the reverse light to get power. Thabks
@@RogerCui could you do a full video please! I’m a current owner of an r8 and really need to upgrade the current system for a clear picture for my wife xD I can’t be sure which aftermarket system shows the better camera and retains the parking sensor visuals.
We bought ACARNAVI Android Head Unit Touch Screen Carplay for Audi R8 V8 V10 2007-2015 . I do a wrong connection at back of autoradio, and I clipped autoradio. Now, I don't remove this autoradio for do the right connection ... DO YOU KNOW HOW TO REMOVE this autoradio ?? ;(;
I ordered one recently and it worked good for 1 hour, then started freezing and not working properly and cutting out. Now it turns on after like 10 mins of driving then cuts off. I tried contacting the seller with no response received. Surely a faulty unit. Does anyone have any long term use out of these head units ?
For someone going on about your “ infotainment system “ being prehistoric …. Putting in a cheep piece of crap head unit makes sense …😅 ps your car is NOT a super car
