Can Android auto be updated on the 2019 Murano? Is it done through the dealer or can I do it myself? I have updated the app on my phone for what it's worth but I was just wondering about how to keep the latest on the car.

The 2019 Android Auto software in the head unit can be updated via OTA (over the air) updates when/if any updates are released. I haven't seen any OTA updates released for the head unit software to date.

There is a head unit update for the rear view camera recall, but that update needs to be performed at the dealer for some reason...

Plug your VIN into this web page to see more info on the dealer installed head unit update:

Well, that was disappointing. I have only driven a few miles since the update but it sure seems to have done nothing for the skipping audio problem. I even unpaired both the car and the phone from each other, turned off the BT on the phone, & disabled BT in the Android app to no avail.

I will continue to work on it but I don't have much hope.

The TSB mentions it enables future OTA updates. You might want to enable WiFi in your Murano and check to see if there are any OTA head unit updates.

FYI, Android Auto update released today. I haven't had a change to play with it but it is supposed to fix voice prompts that were failing on Android 10. I just updated my phone to Android 10 and suffered with the voice prompt error. Haven't yet had the change to verify it works though.

Thanks. My Android just updated today the entire operating system and afterwards it seems I'm at 5.1 now on the Google Play version. I hope it works. The previous version would not let me use the phone book to call anybody like a command like call Jane Smith would not work

A question for those that have the Dasaita Max 6. I’m wondering if the built in GPS works well and without data. I had planned to use waze via phone but am reluctant due to data costs.

Remove all settings from the phone for the car and delete the phone from the car. Reboot the phone.

Starting with a new clean Bluetooth connection might make the difference, especially after a system update.

Have a good day.

I'll post the official Google AA troubleshooting/problem/error site. They're all sorts of issues and problems with various cars and phones. By themselves, Nissan's head units don't seem to be the problem. Some VIP issues have been going on for a long time.

For the 2019 Nissan Murano, Android Auto updates typically come through software updates for the vehicle’s infotainment system. You can check if your vehicle is eligible for an update by visiting a Nissan dealer. In some cases, you might be able to perform the update yourself via a USB drive, but it's generally easier to have the dealer handle it, especially if it involves system updates beyond app updates on your phone. Make sure to consult the owner's manual or your dealer for specific instructions.
