| ![]() I too got the Carplay update and I can vouch that it works better than Android Auto. We are primarily an iPhone family and it's seamless to use. One thing that I like is that the control menus are on the right and not on the left. Having it closer to the steering makes life easier. The whole process took a couple of hours. |

My first priority use case is Music. Second is Navigation. Third is phone and notifications. If I tell Google Assistant to play a particular song using a particular streaming service (Spotify), it does it. Siri asks me to open Apple Music. Otherwise I ask Siri to open the app, after which I have to search manually (not using voice). In AA I can search for a way point in Google Maps. I cannot do that in Google Maps in Carplay (or may be I don't know how? would love to be enlightened) In India - Carplay is gimped and AA is superior in my experience. FYI - I have a Galaxy S10 and an iPhone X. I use both in both my XUV as well as my X1. | |

| ![]() Just curious, how do you manage to use Apple CarPlay (Iphone X) in your 2015 XUV500 W8 AWD? My understanding is, carplay update is only available to the facelift XUV, that too W11 trim. |

And Android Auto does not work in my X1 - Carplay only I should have been more specific. I use both but Carplay in my X1 and AA in my XUV. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() The mystery of rattle continues. Just spoke to workshop, the issue is still open. They are still trying to figure out the source of rattle. Spoke to Sandman offline, he is facing same kind of issue. We are planning to visit workshop tomorrow, will share update here. |

The W11 (O) AT AWD model is only on made to order basis and no dealer has it in his inventory. Once you place the order, in spite of vociferous discouragement from the dealer (as his ready stocked inventory won’t move); the dealer will place the order with the factory and you’d receive your Cheeta after around 2 months. I too own a W11 (O) AT AWD and believe me, Mahindra customer service moves mountains these days once You desire something. eMail Mahindra directly if you find that the dealer is reluctant.

Am really happy with Mahindra customer care, yes it does make a huge difference in attitude of the dealer after you have written to Mahindra customer care. Also a lot of follow ups on feedback. Last edited by diwa : 20th July 2019 at 11:23. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() So much for high ground clearance SUV. I have no idea where this happened, just treaded some rain water that too very carefully. |

Battery discharging issue plagues this new version, all other models/variants never had this issue. M&M needs to see where have they gone wrong. Ride and comfort is a sore point for most [if not all] M&M's. Seats are very good, but the suspension ruins your experience. Drove a friend's Storme done over 1.1K and it stil has soft [stock] clutch. Quote:
How is the comfort in comparison to your Terrano? | ||

I find Carplay much better over Android Auto. It doesn't' require a setup routine. You can connect any phone and the car's system becomes your system. I have not faced any navigation issue in Carplay whether it's G Maps, Apple Maps or Waze. I use Carplay in 2 other cars and the experience has been consistent. To my wonder, I am experiencing that audio quality has significantly improved after the update. | |

Small niggles like rattle noises, not so great ride quality, buggy HU etc are further diluting the overall experience. Last edited by BANDHAV : 22nd July 2019 at 11:56. | |

![]() It was raining cats and dogs and half of the roads were flooded. Finally, I found out a local service station with a raised platform. Got the car up there. Tried to see what really went wrong. Found that this plastic piece is actually held in place by 2 modest screws. The screws were still in place and the plastic piece probably got dislodged by the water. Managed to push the piece back, screwed it back and also tied it with some rope to finally solve the problem. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by GKR9900 : 23rd July 2019 at 15:02. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() ^^I am yet to get the replacement piece. Workshop has quoted me 3.5k for the part and then there would be labour. Considering the condition of roads here I feel that this would be a rather recurring expense. I am contemplating getting one done in metal. A heads up would be great in case someone has got the same done on their XUV. |
