CADILLAC CUE CARPLAY AND ANDROID AUTO ENABLED FACTORY SYSTEM
MVI is proud to offer the factory Cadillac CUE CarPlay and Android Auto upgrade for your new 2013 – 2015 Cadillac.
We use the genuine O.E.M parts to make this happen, so no need to settle for anything other than factory for your Cadillac upgrade. Many aftermarket systems often create more headaches than solutions, why not stick with the factory systems that were designed for your vehicle as we have your factory solution right here!
The factory Cadillac CUE CarPlay and Android Auto upgrade will consist of a new HMI Module, Radio Module and USB Hub for the center armrest. The newly supplied HMI comes with the upgraded 2.5 processor which will also enhance the overall performance of the factory CUE Infotainment System. This is definitely a noticeable difference to the way the system responds to touch, and this difference alone makes the upgrade worth the investment in your vehicle. There are some changes with how the steering wheel controls will act with this upgrade, so please make sure to read the note regarding the steering wheel controls below.
In order to perform the Cadillac Apple CarPlay and Android Auto upgrade, you will need option code IO5 or IO6. For more information on how to determine which option code your vehicle is equipped with, please message MVI.
We Offer BOTH I05 (Non Factory NAV) and I06 (Factory NAV) Systems.
STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS NOTE
This Cadillac CUE CarPlay and Android Auto Upgrade will bring some changes to how your Steering Wheel Controls act, WHEN and Only When plugged in and using CarPlay or Android Auto. When plugged in and using CarPlay or Android you will NOT be able to Activate Siri or Google Assistant via the Voice button on the steering wheel. There will be an icon on the touchscreen to activate either phones voice features, or you can simply say “Hey Siri” or “OK Google” and not touch anything. This also deactivates the voice button to answer phone calls, however there is an Answer and Hang-Up icon on the touchscreen when the call comes in. The back of wheel buttons will still work to raise and lower audio volume and track forward and backward on your music library, for iPhone. Android phones act differently and from what we’ve seen, most older Android loose those buttons all together, and we have seen a couple instances with the very newest Android phones.
Each Android model acts differently and we have no control over which phones do what. Your steering wheel controls will function just like they do know when your phone is not plugged in and using the CarPlay or Android Auto interface. So, for example; If you get into your vehicle and just have your phone in your pocket or purse, or laying on the console; all of your steering wheel buttons will function as they do now.
There is a fix for the steering buttons for the Caddillac Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Upgrade, that consists of replacing the instrument gauge cluster (speedo, fuel, tach etc). This is not a cheap upgrade though, so if interested in retaining full functionality of the steering wheel controls, please message us using the chat feature in the lower right hand corner, and we’ll be happy to explain further.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES
If you are attempting fix fix a DEAD or UNRESPONSIVE Touchscreen, this upgrade will not fix your problem. The CUE touchscreen is a completely different fix. If you currently have Factory NAV you will need to select the I06 option above (mandatory for Escalade models) or you will lose the Factory NAV all together. When upgrading to the CarPlay/Android Auto System you are changing out your existing NAV module and adding the newer module.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES
NEW MAPPING INTERFACE NOTE
Gm did make some changes to the GMC CarPlay and Android Auto Mapping interface when they launched the new system in 2016. They are very minor changes, but worth noting:
- The map icon is now just an arrow, you can no loner set it to be a car or truck image.
- The very top portion of the screen is no just blackened out with a compass in the middle. It is no longer a sky background that emulates the weather.

The upgrade to my niece’s 2013 Cadillac ATS went very well. The video you posted was almost perfection on installing the GPS and Car Play upgrade! My niece was so surprised (she loves CarPlay)!! It was an early Christmas present for her. Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting to upgrade their radio!

I wanted Apple Car Play and factory navigation for my 2014 Cadillac CTS. My experience with MVI was very good. They only use OEM equipment and it shows. My Cadillac CUE System works flawlessly and the graphics have also improved! Many Thanks!
