Hi I have a March 15 C4P ex. I see later versions come with Apple CarPlay. Is there a way of putting on the 2015 model? I listen to American Radio via app or streams and for some reason Bluetooth doesn’t always work. My car still has the factory fit version of Smeg.

This is a recurring question, and the concensus is that, unfortunately , it is not just a simple software upgrade.

Thanks, it’s a shame software can’t fix it. I am assuming hardware can, any idea of a replacement Citroen unit cost?

Usually in the range of £600-£800 for the headunit, and another £500 for the screen if it's different between the models.

Even then, there's no guarantee it'll work properly as a lot of Citroen dealers wouldn't have a clue how to set it up properly in Diagbox (it's not a standard thing to do).
