This thread is all about the Head Unit (HU) on the new MY18 XV Crosstrek..
Do you have a question, a problem or issues with it?...post here.

LOL yes! She says "two wads" instead of towards. At first our family giggled but it got irritating really quickly.I dislike the way it vocalises "towards" when gpsing.

The touchscreen may become unresponsive if you do things too quick. Like typing too quick or dragging the map around too quick.
The HU and my handset did that repeatedly, until I finally nuked/repaved my handset with Android Nougat. It's be really good ever since.The night I purchased mine, I had an issue with the BT connection between my phone and the HU. I had it in the accessory position, connected my phone and began music. Upon starting it up, the HU said the phone was still connected, but the phone did not show any connections. Couldn't "disconnect" the phone on the HU, delete it, anything. Couldn't reconnect the phone. Ended up doing a factory data reset on the HU, hasn't happened since.
Wait, so it wasn't the cable then? The 'not' at the end has me confused...i had an issue with Android Auto disconnecting for no reason, but the issue wasn't the headunit or my phone. Turns out it was a cheap USB cable that i bought. Swapped it with a better one and it works great not.
You can turn off nav audio prompts. Tap the nav screen, on the right there are three buttons placed vertically. The centre one, an image of a speaker, is mute if you press it.It would be nice if you could turn Navigation audio prompts off and just use prompts on the screen/info display. Even turning the Nav volume to zero still interrupts the music when it wants to say something. I know roughly where I'm going, just prompt me on the screen when the turn is coming up.
Otherwise a very nice car![]()
Of course, there is another option, you know, Jenfy. You could get rid of that way too complicated smart phone that you're lugging around and just go back to a flip phone. Problem solved! No more issues with Android Auto and all those other distracting buttons and screens on Skye Trek's dash. Just you, the car, and the open road.Turn off the Power Saving feature on your phone prior to trying to connect to Android Auto. Once I did this, everything seemed to work MUCH better.
