Just got a new 2019 CX-5 GT and wondering if the USB/Hack works on the latest infotainment systems
I had a 2016 CX-5 & it worked.... Just wondering if anyone else has had success.... Just considering doing it... Not convinced it's worth it yet.
The #1 best thing is disabling the stupid disclaimer that comes up every single time you start the car. 4-5 people are going to own that car in it's lifetime at best. But the disclaimer needs to pop EVERY time the car starts? So lame...
Has anyone done this on a 2019? I haven't checked the firmware version yet, still at work...
It works with the v70.00.335 firmware, but it will require you to perform a serial hack (i.e. removing some interior trim and hard wiring into your CMU) and running some commands through a serial interface on a laptop. After this you access via USB.
You gotta wonder how much sake was involved in that meeting.
