Or is it a phone problem.. Try with a different phone before assuming its a head unit problem

 

Try replacing the cable from the back of the headunit to the port on the dash, they have been known to give trouble. There's been quite a bit of discussion on the forums on these failures, it's not unique to AndroidAuto, it happens with Apple CarPlay as well, and Suzuki dealerships have taken serious flack, in my opinion, unfairly, in the last few years, I've driven over a dozen different vehicles, and used AndroidAuto, every time I've had trouble, with one exception, it has been the cable, the one exception the head unit screen failed - that car, interestingly enough had wireless AndroidAuto.

If your vehicle doesn't support wireless AndroidAuto, use only short, high quality cables, the problem is electrical noise corrupting the data transmission.

The problem with wireless AndroidAuto (or CarPlay) is that on a long journey, you'll end up with a dead phone battery, so unless your car also has wireless charging, you're going to need the cable.

 

I have used this cable on my Africa Twin motorbike for Android Auto and had no issues with it.

I have been using a Motorola 'dongle' for over a week now on my 2017 S-Cross (with the Bosch Head Unit) and it works perfectly:

It really is plug-and-play: it plugs directly into the USB port in the centre armrest and avoids the need for any cables. +/- 70€ from Amazon France, +/- £70 from amazon UK:

I have a s cross 2024 and have same problem with the android auto so got wireless adapter even worse wont connect

 

Using samsung s23

 

As My car is still under warranty I had the USB Wire Cable Stereo Plug Socket 39106-68L00 Replaced, and Different USB cables ( 0.3 M ) and Ferrite Core Noise Suppressor Filter , And it looks like this did resolve the issue, USB cable 0.3mm and Ferrite Core only did not resolve it. I have not jet had time to use a deferent cable and if it will also work an the 1M cables. This is the part number USB Plug Socket Port 39105-54P00 of the Socket. ( was not replaced)

 

Is it just me or is anyone else having difficulty understanding what resolved the issue???
