Seems all 650's come with sync 4. My thought was maybe you had sync 3

Hello all. New member here. I picked up my 2025 base GT 6spd about a week ago and haven't been able to get wireless Android Auto to work. I start the process but my phone (Galaxy S24) screen shows that the car's software or settings aren't up to snuff for Android Auto to work.

Any ideas as to what is going on or what I need to do?

Thank you.
When I get the Unable to connect message, it says that using a VPN would prevent it from connecting. I go off the VPN and it connects.

I had a similar problem when I picked my 2024 GT 401a convert. I took it to the dealer and resolved it in seconds. It is a brand new car. If it is not acting right I would immediately go back to the dealer and make their problem.

Not sure, wouldn't sync 3 have wireless? How far back are we talking?
Sync 3 did not have wireless AA or ACP.

That said all S650s have Sync 4. So it's a moot point.

Sounds like something isn't enabled on the phone or the cars wifi connection. What does it say under the wifi settings in the car?

So, finally remembered to try to connect to AA again and screenshot the error screen.
My car's date and time are correct and are set to auto update. Everything on my phone is updated and current. My phone connects to my other cars with AA perfectly fine.

Anyone know what Communication error 14 means?

I posted here in case someone had similar experience and a fix before going to the dealer. I don't know about other's experience but taking the car to the dealer is a time suck with high potential for further aggravation I'd rather avoid.

Wifi is on and detecting/listing networks

I've never seen that before. But obviously something isn't syncing between your car and you phone. What phone are you using?

Try and update Google play store. Goto settings, then about, then update play store. Also clear android auto cache and settings. Maybe contact Google support ect.
