2013 86 firmware

Recommended Posts

Hi from Australia - recently got an 86 GTS (I think this is the standard UK spec) and wondered if there's a way to update the firmware for the infotainment unit (last updated in 2012.)

Thanks!

It steems unwise to pay (a lot) for crappy OE stock satnav updates, when for a fraction of cost one can buy much better satnav apps on smartphone or even use free satnav apps (again better, except most of them requiring online connection). If anything, why not spend that money (IIRC ~150eur) for map updates to spend as partial pay for better aftermarket headunit, that will also enhance audio playback quality.

I've seen evidence of BRZ owners updating their audio unit via USB for free. Not interested in the Nav updates - was just hoping to get a more solid bluetooth connection (it's very flaky) without having to buy a new unit or pay Toyota for a patch.
