I have a golf 7, I want to enable the appconnect feature, I talked to a guy in my dealership and he said I have to buy a whole new unit that has this feature pre-installed, I don't trust what he is saying, theoretically speaking it is the same hardware, and to me it just looks like a software update, I have to usb port to connect the unit to phone, and the composition media has the touch screen, so from a hardware prespective a 2014 composition media isn't that different from a 2015 composition media.

How can I do a firmware update? Can someone please share the software version of a composition media that has the app connect?

Here is my info:

Hardware version: 041
Software version: 0421

It's a new system that is in the 2016 models that have the 6.5 inch screen. The hardware is different as the "brain" that's located in the dash is more powerful and has that feature built in. You cannot download a software update to make it work. There ate people who have retro fitted the system but that can get costly.
