Great review! Definitely useful! Can't wait for the JCW! Awesome video! Keep it up!
Thanks Eli!! Yes same!
A very nice detailed video. I appreciate it.Thank You.
Thanks. Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Great multi-cam shots!
Thanks so much!!
Nice video, nice that you can rearrange the widgets.
Thanks! Yes that's a really nice feature.
I’m amazed you can do this as a salesman at mini San Diego I’m blown back. Also I love your minis. I have 2020 black on black limousine out clubman S.
I’ll always like your videos thanks for your passion love your videos.
Thanks for following the channel! I am always really curious to hear what MINI employees think of the channel. I recently saw a black on black clubman and it looked epic!
So glad I found your channel. I just got a 2016 clubman and I really want to update it. Will this work for a 2016?
Thanks for watching! Yes it will work! Send me a dm on instagram or an email and I can get you a quote
Imagine how pleased I am to find your channel…. 👏👏 Purchased a 17’ this past month. Drove a 23’ (service loaner) from the dealership and was hanging my lip a little because the newer Mini had such a nice interface. After this upgrade, the only thing that seems to be missing is the cameras (front /rear)…. Total dollar cost for you for this upgrade? Thx!
Welcome to the channel! Glad you enjoyed the video! Send me a dm with a picture of your current unit and vin and I would be glad to help you out!
Cool video! Wondering if this would work for a 2018 countryman S. Thanks!
Thanks for watching! Absolutely! If your interested in a quote send a picture of what you have now to my email or insta!
Thank you for your reply! I actually meant to comment on your video about switching from the old infotainment system to the 2023 system. Would the new system work for my 2018 countryman? Thanks again!
Hello - great video! Any clue how you turn off the traffic announcements that interrupt the radio? I can cancel the current notification when it appears but not switch them off entirely...
Thanks! Hmm good question. I wonder if you need to turn off traffic entirely. Or maybe you could turn off notifications with Carly or bimmercode
Hi, great review, I have a 2016 clubman with none touchscreen 6" screen, can you help me source what I need to upgrade ?
Hello, please DM me on instagram or an email. We may be a bit slow to responding though as we are having a tough time finding units.
Hey there! Great video! Any updates on the color schemes (sport, lounge)? Currently facing similar issues as well
Thanks for watching! Turns out you need to flash the bdc. Arduous process so have not gotten to it yet.
Hey there, any updates on this? Would love to use the black and red sports colour theme
Can the gauge cluster also be upgraded to one of the new ones? Also have a 2017 model with the orignal system. Love the look of the new one but I rarely use it, so can't justify the cost (no idea how much the upgrade is but I'm guessing not cheap).
Yes it can be! If your interested in just upgrading the gage cluster, send me a dm on instagram or email and I can put together a price.
I liked your video. I also have a 2017 clubman and would like a system with android android. Please let me know what I would need to install the same. Thanks for your guidance.
Hello, Unfortunately as this is an OEM unit, MINI does not support android auto, just mirror link and Apple CarPlay. If you are still interested, send me a dm on instagram or an email
I have a 2015 countryman I've been wanting to upgrade for awhile to this display would love help
For sure! Send me a Dm on instagram or an email and I can help you out. I dont know if you have seen it, but I also have another video where I install the system.
What about carplay? I have older model, non touch screen, and installed some piggy box to work with. Kind of happy with it but still i like the OEM touch screen and would consider to install the same system you have.
Yes, the install adds the OEM wireless CarPlay. The whole upgrade is quite expensive though. If your interested, send me a dm on Instagram or an email and I can write you up a quote for your specific car.
@@carcreationsyt Iam also interested
My friend. As far as you know. There is any way possible to switch the halogen headlights for the cool led halo ones ? I have an f56 with halogen which I hate
Yes it is possible! It is difficult though, but I have the parts for the upgrade and should be doing a video series on it at some point!
Have you tried connecting/retrofitting the Touch ECU into the cable of the iDrive controller?.Have you tried using touch on iDrive to search contacts/songs?. Thanks.
Yes I did, works perfectly! I presume your talking about drawing letters on the iDrive controller?
@@carcreationsyt Yes.Thank You.
I own a 2021 JCW Mini Convertible - Love it but need to know how to get the SHUFFLE function working on my USB port. It is on the menu but never shuffles rather plays a CD as loaded and then goes to the next. Not sure if its the format I loaded all of this music onto the USB or if I am missing activating something on the infotainment system itself. Dealership is not helpful to this point.
Congrats on the new MINI!! Did you by chance take a look at the owners manual? Not 100% sure off the top of my head as I dont use that functionality often, I will have to play with that!
Hi, Do U know if the mileage travelled by your car in kms/miles, which you can see on your speedometer> can that also show on the HeadUnit?.Thanks.
I dont believe so
The person who coded my HeadUnit on the Color Scheme, mentioned that the feature is will work/possible only with the newer models & not my 2018 CountryMan.Were U able to code it to work?.
Oh interesting! No we have not figured out a way to get it to work. Mine is a 2017 so that may be why. Good to know!
Hi there can you tell me From what year does mini have mini connect and do you need the plus version to have things such put on a/c while your not in the car??? Thx …
For sure! I believe if you want all the options (like the a/c) you need to get late 2018 and newer. You do need the MINI connected package, so when you are looking at cars make sure you specify this and why you want it to the dealer.
Actually, if its a deal breaker, when you are close to buying a car, see if you can add it to the app on your phone! It does take a little for the app to verify and get all the features, so remember that when you do it. Good luck in your car search!!
Hello, I have watched both videos of your installation of the new 2022 entertainment system and review and would love to have this installed in my Mini Cooper. Do you know if this can be installed in a 2012 Mini Countryman? My car does not have the toggle buttons like yours did plus I have the dvd player under the radio. Also can the dvd player be used with the new entertainment system? Thanks
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately this system can only be installed on an f series MINI.
@@carcreationsyt Oh I was afraid you were going to say that. It’s really a cool system. Thank you
I’ve got a 2020 jcw LCI with the larger display would I just need an update to the new operating system ?
Probably yeah! If your interested, send me a dm on Instagram or an email and we can check.
I am from Trinidad.The BMW-MINI does not have Maps from my country which falls under the South America FSC for maps.With the GPS port connected, my MINI still shows me the position >latitude & longitude of where i am on the maps but not the roads & paths or directions.I use Waze & Google Maps on the Apple Car Play. I am able to screen mirror the Android phones on the screen as well but no wireless Android Car play.
I couldn't find an Android phone to test, that's sad to hear its still not supported! Hope they figure out that in the future.
Without Android Auto its not worth it to upgrade for me. I love my 2017 Software. I love the 3D apperance, more contrast in colors. Darker background. And i dont have nasty fingerprints on it. But its my opinion
Yeah I wish it had android auto. That way I could get an Android phone!!
Yeah, if your an android user it’s probably best to simply wait.
Good question, I’ll have to look into that. I know that I have said different phrases to get the same results but that probably doesn’t necessarily mean it has natural speech.
Hi hi have a countryman 2021 with the bigger screen but no navigation. Do you know if it’s possible to unlock car play feature on it or at least update to the latest infotainment design … it’s the same 8 " screen .. thks ☺️😁
It probably is! Send me a dm on Instagram or email with your vin and I can help you!
@@carcreationsyt ok i will DM on Instagram
Can I add CarPlay to my Mini Countryman 2020 All4? I didn’t get the navigation package, so it didn’t come with CarPlay either, but I see you don’t have Nav but yet you’ve got CarPlay. I sent you an email about a week ago.
Send me a dm on instagram or email with your vin, and a picture of what your system looks like now and we can see!
If you’re connected to Apple car play would maps/Waze work?
Yes it does!! Use Waze almost exclusively!
I also installed this firmware in the service. But the section with applications does not work for me, for example, the weather does not appear on the main screen. your weather works, how to treat such a bug?
Just noticed you sent me a DM on instagram, sorry I dont know off the top of my head. I will send the info of my coding specialist and also check out www.minif56.com/ there might be someone there who has an answer.
I have question! I have 2006 mini cooper would it work or fit?
Unfortunately it only works on f series
Where’d you purchase this? I would like to upgrade my 16 Cooper S convertible to the new.
We get the parts from mini and coding from BimmerFixes. If your interested we are selling a packaged deal, but right now due to the parts shortage they are hard to get a hold of. Send me a dm on instagram or an email if your interested!
@@carcreationsyt just dm you on ig
I’ve never been able to connect my 2019 4 door. Hoping the new app would work, but no luck.
Oh really? Thats frustrating. Did you try connecting it using the USB cable? I had to setup my app with the Clubman via that method.
Not since the new app launched but the old one I tried that. Going to give it a go now and see what happens.
Can you get video from a backup camera from this upgrade
Yes you can!
do you think I could do this with my 2014 countryman s? I know it may be a bit too old to work with the new system, but I figured it's worth asking, as I don't like the aftermarket systems. It just has the small red blocky screen, not the actual one, I know some of them came with proper screens but mine didn't.
Hello, thanks for watching the videos!! I am sorry I have bad news though. Unfortunately this infotainment only works with F series minis. I believe the 2014 countryman is an R60.
Really sorry about that!
@@carcreationsyt thanks so much for taking the time out of your day to read and respond to my comment! Your help is much appreciated, because I'd much rather find out now than after buying and attempting to install the new system.
Also, thank you of informing me of R60 because I'm not quite sure how those identifiers work, and did not know if it was r-something or f-something or what.
Sorry but the mini connected app becomes available on your car if you install this 2022 screen? You said that you have a 2017 clubman; so you couldn’t use the mini connected app (because it is only available on 2018 models or later, right?)
I have a mini One 2015, so mini connected app doesn’t work, if I install the screen it becomes available?
Sadly the new MINI app didnt end up working. The older MINI connected app still does though
Been researching a lot and now a Clubman S or even JCW ALL4 could possibly be a consideration, but really bummed to hear even for MY2022 that Mini still has no Android Auto hurts. I was never an Apple fan so switching phones is out of question.
Yeah it is frustrating. I hear its coming in the near future, but until then! There is an android aftermarket box you can put in your car, but it is aftermarket.
My 2016 mini JCW dose not even connect with the app anymore, Mini have wrecked what was working fine.
Yeah it’s certainly frustrating for those cars
Hi, Were U successful in changing the colour scheme of the interface?.Thanks.
We never where able! Its odd because we can on newer cars, but none of the older ones.
@@carcreationsyt Ok, my coder said that only on the newer 2021 cars, its possible to enable that "custom color for menu" feature.So until a solution comes out, we r stuck with the green colour for older vehicles. Also the BimmerCode app that we use to change/add features does not recognize my "used retrofit HeadUnit" that was VIN coded for my vehicle.My coder said that the App is old and i should not change any settings on the headunit becoz the "OEM component protection system" can recognize/kick in/on my unit and lock it permanently!.
@@varmaTrini That makes sense. A bit annoying though, I am going to keep trying to figure out a solution though.
@@carcreationsyt The HeadUnit that you swapped into, is that a brand new HeadUnit authorised by the BMW-MINI?.I am asking becoz the New head unit costs around 3000 US$ & another 1500US$ to code it VIN into the car by the dealer. My HeadUnit is a used one that was custom coded to suit my MINI and it costed me around a 1100 US$ in all.
Where can I find the "hardware" for my mini? to upgrade y screen and internal component?
Send me a dm on Instagram or an email and I’ll help you out
How can I get one for me 2021 Mini Cooper S ?
Send me a DM on instagram or an email!
All those different choices, it's rather like what you can alter with Bimmercode.
Yeah, it’s awesome! Love the customization.
You mention adding a GPS dongle. I am about to get a new mini cooper but didn't get sat Nav, can it be added retrospective?
It is most likely doable, however you would need to check to see if the head unit had the port to add the dongle. Not all of them do.
@@carcreationsyt So, the new 2022 system has the dongle ?
Or do you not need the dongle if Apple Car play has waze?
@@jerrypfannkuche9908 if you have CarPlay then Waze will work fine without the gps dongle. The gps dongle will only give you the mini navigation.
Waze works using the gps on your iPhone.
Hope that helps!
This week, I am swapping my Piano Black Passenger Dash Trim > Yours Piano Black Illuminated Dash Trim.Apparently all MINI vehicles 2018 & older must have a 3 dangling wires that can be used to enable this feature, once we have the part.I am going to try & do that, since my F60 has the wires already.
Oh cool! Let me know how that goes!
@@carcreationsyt I got my "Mini-decorative-trim-pass-side-il-514041-51459350476" Yours Package from "MINI Parts Direct" website.The Illuminated Dash Trim-Piano Black came with the 3 LED modules populated on the rear and it was a plug & play!.Works well.It took them close to a month to make & ship the item(Right Hand Drive) from Germany to US after the order.I understand that all MINI after 2018 have these 3 dangling wires behind the Passenger Dash Trim.The Illuminated Dash also comes in British Oak & ChestNut(discontinued) colours.There are newer Dash patterns & colours for the 2020 & 2021 models of MINI but i have not been able to spot them on the Parts catalogue.
@@varmaTrini Awesome, thanks so much! I will have to look into it. Sadly my car is a 2017, so it won't have the 3 cables. I will have to look at retrofitting them
Did you upgrade your dash?
@@samanthasmith7219 Yes. It works well.
My coder did not add the Mini Connected & Mini calendar app on my HeadUnit. I am from Trinidad & Tobago/Caribbean and i am told by the Android & Apple store that the app is not available for download in my region!.
Oh really? Interesting. So there is a way to get the app... Connect to the US with a VPN on your phone, then create a new Apple ID with a ZIP code from the states. Then the app should appear in your store! Sometimes the VIN won't work in the App Store, but sometimes it does work! Worth a try anyway.
Hello, just coded it on my 2019 jcw and when i change driving mode there is no more any animation on the homescreen telling « x mode enanled », did you manage to get this work ? Thanks
I got someone else to specifically code it, we did get that feature though.
@@carcreationsyt I solved it, just had to enable it in the settings 🤡
@@allanmazouts3039 Oh perfect! Gotta love it when its that easy!
Hi, I have a 2014 Cooper S & want to update my unit as much as possible with possibility of android auto. Can't seem to find anywhere in uk to provide device, can you give me a supplier to contact. Many thanks
Send me a dm on instagram or an email and I can help you out!
Hi, where can I buy the new display?
Send me a DM on Instagram or an email and I can help you out.
Which year mini can this system be retrofitted?
Any F series. So 2014 and newer for F55,F56, and F57 hatchbacks.
And 2017 and newer for F54 and F60 cars. (Clubman and countryman)
would this work in a r61?
Unfortunately only works on f series
How do you turn off the chime when you start the engine
You should be able to turn it off or at least change the sound to something less annoying with Carly or BimmerCode. We have videos on both apps on our channel
Does this play movie files from the usb?
I will give it a test and let you know!
Hey Ethan!
I'd love to chat with you about getting this same setup in my 2018 Countryman, what's a good email for you?
Thanks!
For sure! My email is CarCreationsyt@gmail.com
Hey guys
I have 2018 Countryman S All4 and would like to be a part of your discussion. I am sure our questions have some overlap.
I'll message Ethan with my email address. 👍
Oh BOY, just got an email from Mini that says ANDROID will be added soon....was also some other features mentioned.......YEAH!
Wow that's awesome!! Good to know. I would be interested if you wouldn't mind forwarding me the email?
That would be sooo great!
Even the face lift doesn't have Android Auto (here in Germany). Hope you are right!!!
I Bought A 2018
Countryman The
Touchscreen Isnt
A Touchscreen
How Can I Make It
A Real Touchscreen.?
If you just want the screen, it shouldnt be too hard, just a little bit of coding, if you want the full 2022 system, it is a lot more involved. Send me a dm on instagram or an email and I can help you out!
It is still pretty close to the 2021 version .....and truly in my opinion should not be used when car is in motion! I am all for making it inoperable when speed is above 5mph. With such discussion over issues with texting and driving, yet someone thinks it is a good idea to basically have a tablet to control some car functions? Good explanation of functions. (Oh and the new app is still pretty much like the older app, hoping they will be improving it.)
Its crazy the amount of stuff they put on the screen these days. MINI is quite good actually, but take Tesla for example. You need the touch screen for windshield wipers!
How to update to this?
I have a video where I did the complete upgrade with a step by step guide. Let me know what you think! ruclips.net/video/_JZsVfBurSY/видео.html
I see the guy in video he doesn't have the speakers on each side near the windshield my 2017 has Harmon kardon speaker system total 11 speakers all 4 doors have speakers one on each side above dashboard near windshield 2 subwoofers one under each front seats and in rear next to the small windows on each side plus that one in center on dashboard
Yeah I don’t have the HK setup. This system will still work perfectly fine with HK speakers and some users have reported that it sounds better with the new infotainment system.
@carcreationsyt my system sounds nice with the 11 speakers. Does your clubman have subs under the front seats
@@carcreationsyt how much does it cost for the new Entertainment System just wondering because I just bought my 2017 Mini Clubman Cooper month and a half ago I just made my second payment
does this new system play video?
It should although I have not tested it yet, but will do and let everyone know!
Ok sounds good I’ll be watching and thank you
Same question here , any updates ?
It's support android car play
Just android mirror link unfortunately
How do you do this with your mini?
If your interested in simply the install, I have another video on the channel with that. If you need the system, send me a dm on instagram or an email and I can try and help you out!
does it have android auto?
Sadly not yet, they say it will be coming so will update when that happens.
@@carcreationsyt aw, I just bought one mini jcw, and I'm using an android phone
Hi Ethan. I’m aware of at least three people who have experience coding Minis who have enabled the different color schemes. I’m disappointed you continue to promote bimmerfixes, when they charge higher than average prices and do not have a solution for this. The only possible explanation is that you are compensated by them for your promotion. It is disappointing that you are helping sell and likely profiting from an unfinished product.
Hello, thanks for your comment!
Mine was the first system they coded, so it was a beta test and proceeded knowing it would be unfinished.
My goal is to help the MINI community with the knowledge and BimmerFixes has helped me out with coding and installation support behind the scenes. Without them, none of my projects would have happened so don’t mind giving them a shoutout.
I encourage people to find a coding specialist and cheaper parts!
I make 1-2% of every product sold through me, but it’s really only a labor of love as I spend hours helping out each person.
We have not sold any of the 2022 upgrades yet, till we are 100% sure every issue is fixed.
If you have any concerns, please feel free to reach out to me via email, and I will do my best to address them.
Thanks for your support!
Ethan
No the information I need is not in the mini book that comes with the car
What do you need to know?
It's better a China 2din. It's 2021 and there is not android auto or mirror link. The fact it's we see all the mini with the snartphone attached in the air conditioning whole. Unbelievable...
It does have mirror link! Sad about android auto though. Hopefully in the future.
So it’s the same as the old system with different graphic! Waste of money!
If your upgrading from the non touch screen it adds a lot of functionality, and if your upgrading from the version with touch screen, its just a software re-flash.
I’ve had a 2022 mini countryman for a rental and this car sucks donkey balls. Absolutely sucks
Thanks for your comment! What specifically did you not like?
@@carcreationsyt key design. Too difficult to tell which side has the buttons
CarPlay - should be accessible by a simple plugging in of your device but I’ve watched all videos related to this and still can’t get it to even appear as an option
When you stop and open your door, every door should unlock automatically
Width of the car - very dangerous in snow as it’s hard to follow the tracks of the previous cars and wants to constantly suck you off the road
When you lock the car, no noise or lighting confirming you’ve locked the car
Climate control - only a “max” defrost button. You cant have it on low or mid
Power - I haven’t driven a car this slow since an 89 ford tempo
No adaptive cruise control
Some of these peeves may be a setting I can change but overall this car is just not good in my opinion
I’m very interested in doing this for my mini. I sent you a DM on Instagram.
Thanks! I’ll get back to you once I get back from my holiday
