Noob questions on GLA180

[ahpat1]

Hey seniors,

Paiseh, need to ask to clarify some things. Tried to search online for answers but still kinda confused.

I bought a new GLA180 Urban Edition this year from PI.

1) Is X156 same as W156?

2) On paper, it states that it comes with Audio 20 system. Is it same as NTG5.0? Reason I ask is I am hoping to upgrade the 8" screen to a 10.25 Android Touchscreen and I must choose between NTG4.5 and NTG5.0.

3) My system comes with support for wired Apple Carplay and Android Auto. If I upgrade to 10.25" Android Touchscreen, will the same capabilities remains? Or do I still have to buy separate Apple Carplay?

4) Any way to update the CDplayer to DVDplayer?

5) Anyone mounted a headrest monitor for the passenger? My seats do not come with adjustable headrest (with 2 metal rods to mount) like normal cars, so not sure to mount a small monitor to entertain the kids.

Any suggestions and answers are appreciated! Dun scold me hor... I really tried to look for answers... still learning.

 

Thanks in advance!

1. X156 is the model for GLA

2. Should be ntg 5 for newer models after 2016. Audio 20 is the base. Command online is the upgraded version. 
 

3. change to Android headunit means take out the audio 20

4. Dun think so. 
 

5. dun think can unless use those Velcro type

I believe your GLA chassis code is X156.  Here's a link that lists out all the various chassis codes for MB vehicles.  Interesting read.
