Anyone have an update regarding receiving the updated radio firmware?

How about installing a 2019 ra4 in a 2017? I would think this would have a newer firmware by default.

I‘ve just installed a 2019 UC in a 2017 pacHy. Works.

Update on upgrading from the Ra2 to the UAG! Got my radio in and it works perfectly! Waiting on the new radio bezel and I’ll be good to go, code worked just as it should. CarPlay works as well with the stock usb. Only 2 minor issues, the compass won’t calibrate and the tempature for the hvac is stuck in Celcius even though it’s set in Fahrenheit. Hopefully after a few cycles it will calibrate and be good to go! But I’m in this for under $300 compared to $1000 on infotainment

Sorry I didn't see this earlier. Awesome job by the way. Welcome to the club. The code at least on the 8.4 is not needed. At least on my van it just cleared itself out. Enjoy carplay!

Still no over the air updates whatever firmware it comes with is what you get.

sweet! can you post the details? and what would the benefit of going with a 2019 unit versus a 2018 unit (other than maybe newer firmware)? thanks

Well, it‘s a bit special because it‘s a Brazilian head unit (part # 68351935AI) and I bought it because it has DAB (comparable to HD). Also, it was cheaper than the „normal“ head units (800$).
No special reason I bought a 2019 instead of 2018 - only this unit was available.
The retrofitting is the same as when going from 2017 to 2018 (new fakra cable, new screen)

Out of fun I hooked up my old screen and funny enough you‘ll see the difference in resolution. I guess it‘s 4 times more pixel density with the new screen (on the old screen, only the top left quarter of the UI showed filling the whole screen)

Yeah I was hoping a 2019 would ensure you had a firmware that would include any bugs that people are reporting with some of the 2018 units.

I am seeing a ton of different part numbers from the OEM website (some are even for Brazil?). Anyone know the exact part number to purchase for a 2019 (USA) part to install into a 2017 Pacfica?

I can see some folks have done the install. Do you have the part numbers you can share ?

Hey guys. I know this thread is getting pretty long but all the info can be found on page 2. If you have a 17 with an 8.4" uconnect then you'll need the screen(p68316174AB) the processing (68351931AH) and the fakra cable. Link on page 2. You can either try to find the parts online or look at online junkyards (see page 2) or go through infotainment.com for a complete kit. Either way, read the first 2 to 3 pages to get a good idea of what the process entails.

Thank you for this information. Is there a difference between the 2019 and 2018 version? I heard that it has 4x the resolution?

I can't imagine it would but I'm not sure. I know someone on here stated that but why would they go from an 18 to a 19 I'm the first place?

I have a Chrylser Pacifica Touring-L with Nav version. But I didn't purchase the key. I have a DVD player and not a blu-ray player. How to search for a part? How hard it is to install?Will it void lifetime warranty?

 

[kingfisher]

What part I have to order exactly on car-part.com for 2018 or 2019 model and any other parts I have to look for other than FAKRA cable?

Is there a different part number for 2019 model's?

I only went to a 2018 so not sure if there are different parts.

 

[kingfisher]

Do anyone has a video while doing this? Bit scared to touch this beast.

I just received the display pulled from a 2019, I confirm the part number is still p68316174AB. I can't speak for the receiver/processing unit as I found a good deal on a 2018.

@kingfisher it's actually really easy to do. You jus grab the bezel and pull on it from one side and the clips will start popping out. That will get the bezel and display out. The processor is now accessible and only attached with 4 screws. Remove them and it comes out. Easy peezy.

How to get right part for my pacifica. Is it still going to be p68316174AB and 68351931AH . Some says with out navigation but gives these same part numbers. I have with Navigation feature which I am not using as I didn't get the key intentionally..
