Hi,

The honest answer is simply don't bother with Mirrorlink - it doesn't work properly.

What do you actually mean by that?? Would probably mean a visit to a Subaru dealer for updating

Some good some bad here

The update files were as it seems available from download....maybe not in the u.k but elsewhere judging from the vids on YouTube,they give a link to Subaru.net which no longer exists

Some of the YouTube vids are quite detailed in how to update yourself

But without the firmware not possible.

Have you actually enquired whether there is an update for your HU ??.

To be honest having read many posts on various Subaru forums, even with v1.1, it's very hit and miss whether it works or not.
