Pixelated screen using Apple CarPlay

This is not a new topic here, as far as I see, I think it is the right thing to open this discussion for those of you having new generation cars from the VW group:


The Apple CarPlay problems are not only on Honda models. My Skoda Octavia 4 (VW MIB3 Infotainment System) has the same problem.


When using navigation apps (Waze, Apple Maps, Google Maps) on both my iPhone 11 Pro Max and iPhone 7, after a while, the navigation part of the screen is getting blurry.


Both iPhones have the newest updates, the car also. Restarting the iPhones or the car infotainment system doesn’t help.


You can refresh the blurred screen by changing shortly to a car menu and then back to Apple CarPlay. This holds for a while (5-10 Minutes) and then you go again.


iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 16

I can still confirm after weeks of driving that SW update 1896 (or higher) definitely solves this problem!

For months my dealer also mentioned that there was no SW update listed for my car but instead I threw in other infotainment issues like "reboots frequently" and "faults" until the dealer finally wanted to update to 1896. Very frustrating but very happy that this issue is finally resolved and hope all of you reading this topic can benefit from this info.
