D4 Can Bus ID tracking

[rangeyrover]

Hi All,
These are from a 2010 D4 MS CanBus which is at 125kb/s
I'm on a project to get bluetooth streaming working with the factory steering controls.
I used a canable and the cantact app to get the data.
Haven't had a look on the HS CanBus yet.

I assume you have the skills to analyse this type of wizardry? I have a 2011 model so am very interested in how you go with it, I'm not sure when the streaming became available on the D4?

Are you hoping to use the existing BlueTooth module or replace it with a new one?

I am using a bovee 1000 module and that works on mine with the touch screen stereo.

I use a tune2air module that’s plugged into my iPod cable which works fine with my iPhone over Bluetooth using the steering wheel controls. I guess that’s ok if you’ve got a model that came with the Apple cable interface in the first place

I don't have the touch screen so no go for an ipod based device.
I already have decoded the keys for audio control panel.
it's quite easy provided they relate to a single byte.
there are harder challenges for contact sharing and rolling keys.
Baby steps though.
My idea at the moment is to just enable streaming control from the steering wheel. I already have streaming working via the aux in and a bluetooth module. what I want to do is have an arduino listening to the canbus for key presses and then activating it on the bluetooth module.
I could already do that now if I used only the audio control panel buttons.

I absolutely love it. Keep us informed. I’d love to steal your code at some point and have a fiddle
