2017 GTI SE MIB II Question

VDUB725

Ready to race!
So I totaled my 2015 S and picked up a 2017 SE. It was an early 2017 that sat on the lot for 9 months (delivered in March 2017).

My brother just got a great deal on a 2017 SE and the user interface of his infotainment system is different. I know there were a few things package-wise that changed but is it the same MIB II just needing an update?

Android Auto works perfectly, its just bothering me.

The UI hasn't changed, that makes no sense. Sounds like one of you might have some aftermarket solution. Post some pics of each.
I will try to post some pics. My UI is the same as my 2015, his is more modern looking. Mine was probably a very early 2017 build.

Thought I read on here that in 2017, VW switched to a Delphi unit.
Not site if this would make a difference with software.

Could be yours just needs to be updated.

I have a different hardware #... My 2017 SE Fender has 710 hardware. His is 721. IMG_20180217_113548.jpgIMG_20180217_113633.jpgIMG_20180217_131020.jpgIMG_20180217_130952.jpg

I just responded to your pm but now that I see this thread it answers my questions. Not sure what’s going on other than it appears to be an updated version of the software. No clue if they’re planning on making changes for other hardware versions. Does anyone who has ever used erWin know if firmware updates are posted there?

Has to do with the 0721 software update and later I believe. The 08xx software was what came in most of the facelift models. I put in a mib2 with 0745 software and it has the similar 4x2 layout. Seems slightly snappier than the other mib2 unit I tried. but that just could be because newer updates, my other unit I tried which was an 02xx software.

I don't really understand what you're saying. My hardware is 710, my brother's is 721. Can those of us on 710 update to get that 0842 software, or is it not available on the 710 model? I noticed the 710 has the same part no. just with an A instead of the 721 having a B.

I'm guessing that 0710 SW is linked to having 3Q0035844 infotainment unit while 0721 SW is linked to 3Q0035844 rev A. I believe the 08xx software is what the new facelift models are getting, but not entirely sure.

BTW, I mispoke earlier, my SW was also 0721 (4x2 layout, 3Q0035844 rev A).
