No, you need new hardware (NBT Evo) in your 2016 to enable carplay or use an aftermarket carplay adapter.

Thanks for the tip. Do you know if it’s better to go after market or have the dealer upgrade the equipment?

Funny my moms jeep Cherokee you just plug the usb cable into the usb outlet and car play turns on right away.

There are lots of threads on this so it's probably not worth rehashing here. The dealer is not going to support NBT Evo retrofit as an option (they will tell you to buy a 2017-2018) and it's questionable whether the will entertain an aftermarket option.

Whats funny about it? If you had CarPlay it would work that way too.

Still available?

Hey I know this thread is old, but I wanted to see if this patch is still available? I just signed up for an account so it won't let me PM anybody yet.

Is this still possible to do? I'd LOVE to get the full screen on our 2018 F85. For those of you who have successfully made the mod, did you do it yourself?

I have the BimmerCode module and app. Under HEADUNIT there is an entry that clearing states "CarPlay full screen", but when it is activated the right side of the display is a white box.

I don't believe you can enable full screen CarPlay via BimmerCode. I enabled it by connecting with the folks that made this post: https://www.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...php?p=27447484

However it required an ENET cable and windows laptop.
