Will Android Auto Wireless work in this model?

[Alserj]

Hello,

I've recently been made aware that newer Samsung Galaxy phones support Android Auto Wireless, with the catch that the head unit needs to have WiFi for wireless Android Auto to work. I never took to really notice before but looking through the head unit menu today in my 2015 3.8 sedan I noticed it has a large WiFi menu icon. I turned WiFi on and plugged in my phone but nothing new happened.

Has anyone gotten this to work? Or can anyone definitively confirm if this is or is not supported in this model?

Android Auto works fine via USB, just wondering about wireless.

Thank you.

No, that doesn't do it. It connects to download but does not support other accessories.

Pretty much the "wifi" in this car is useless...
