I had recently bought a BMW i3 that was Apple CarPlay prepared and I wanted CarPlay installed as well as the iDrive Firmware updated. They direct me to the London outlet as that was closer to where I live, and I met with Baasim who did a sterling job. I now have latest version of iDrive Firmware and Fullscreen CarPlay which works absolutely brilliantly. I can highly recommend this service.

i am impressed from the service

i am impressed from the service, i am from Frankfurt Germany and had been looking for a couple of weeks to activate the android auto on my MB w205. emailed 2 companies and both claimed the activation could be possible only from MB dealership. i found Makcoding on youtube, i got prompt reply on WhatsApp on Friday late evening and confirmation the activation is possible. I got the android auto activated remotely in less than 5 mins,all working as it should. Happy with the price and everything, highly recommend Makcoding.Greatings from Frankfurt

5 out of 5 - car play/app connect coding

Bought VW Golf car play / app connect coding and it worked perfectly - instructions are easy to use and software downloaded exactly as it was supposed to. Software compatibility with my vehicles head unit was confirmed to using the helpful WhatsApp help line. Top service would recommend!

I dont agree with the 4 star ratings

I dont agree with the 4 star ratings. Should be 5+ stars!!! Bought a bmw 1 series last week. Maps hadnt been updated since 2016. Found makcoding online, enquired , ordered and updated my maps to 2025 within 2days!! All via usb. Very simple and painless to do. Highly recommend.

Terrific job done on my Porsche Macan to make the apple car play full screen.
Did the remote install option and they were patient, professional and nothing seemed too much trouble.
Would highly recommend these guys if you’re thinking of upgrading. The full screen not only looks great but much easier to use !

Amazing company to deal with

These guys remotely installed Applecarplay on my BMW i3s using my old 2013 MacBook Air. This involved all sorts of updates and patches and other stuff that went way over my head. Took them about 4 hours to sort my PC out, but they did it. A brilliant company to deal with and amazing technical knowledge. Brilliant job and thank you.

First Class!

As somebody that is familiar with the workings of the VW range of cars I was tempted to to try and patch my Audi so that I can install the latest maps.
After spending a lot of time investigating, I decided to talk to MAK to decide whether to use their service.
I am VERY glad that I did. MAK clearly have lot of experience and, in my case, provided a very slick and polished service. They knew what they were doing and they succeeded in walking me through the update of my car.
Thank you very much - thoroughly recommended.👍

Mak coding Apple car play

Found on google and read reviews here. Wanted to meet in person as not technical at all. Live in London so was directed to London branch. I had Car play and updates installed for Audi TT mark 3. 2015. Audi told me it wasn’t possible to add car play. They were wrong. Fantastic service.

Excellent, Audi TT CarPlay update

Excellent customer service and results. I was cautious about the process of upgrading my MK3 2015 TT to apple carplay, but so glad I did. Wish I’d done it sooner.

Couldn’t recommend more, painless process took about 2 hours with remote support.
