It's certainly not an equivalent to the oem system. That said, I have no regrets buying and consider it an upgrade. Bigger screen, Bluetooth (didn't have in my 2010), internet radio, Android auto, playing movies off a flash drive (not dvd), better resolution, gauges for boost/oil temp/coolant temp via scan cable behind the dash, etc.



Yes, everything on CIC works as it should - FM and sat radio, dvd player, climate controls, menus. I really don't ever use the oem side though unless changing settings or climate controls. Hope that helps.

Mine is a 2008 so I've got the CCC system. It does come with navigation (albeit old map) and bluetooth (handsfree calls only). I'm mainly considering the upgrade for a better navigation system, aftermarket backup camera and just generally more modern features like Spotify on longer trips etc.



On a regular day i usually just listen to FM radio, but the function you mention about having boost/oil/coolant temp shown sounds very cool. How did you go about setting that up? and am i able to have that displayed on the Android side while listening to FM radio on the OEM side?
