    Swap CD player from newer PIU?

    Hi guys, I own a 2015 PIU and I REALLY want to get the Bluetooth feature, since it is not possible to activate it on my SYNC 1 CD player, I found out that later PIUs (a 2016 FPIU in a dealer) had Bluetooth activated.

    Help - P0442 Code Evap system small leak
