it would be great if there is a firmware update for 2013 gs. usb ipod is extremely faulty.

There is, ask the dealer to update the maps and software at the same time. Should cost you around $300 to get it all done. I updated mine and the ipod no longer requires resetting every other day.

Apple Car Play integration is coming for the 2013's around June 2016.

So does CarPlay rely on the phone for all processing power or does CarPlay require an external processor of some sort?

'15 owner here. There was an update available for '15 models so I followed the instructions and installed on my car. It was very easy. Unfortunate I was not able to make it past the "caution" startup screen after I turned off the engine and turned it back on to finalize the installation. The continue button wasn't even showing up. After a couple of restarts I finally got the continue button to show up and was able to navigate the menus like before. Did not notice any changes or performance improvements of the navigation whatsoever.

this is just firmware updates to fix glitches and such.. it is not map updates, it is not navigation updates.

for the RC-F it fixes the issue with the nav freezing and needing power off/on or key cycle to fix.


FWIW you can get these from your dealer during any maintenance visit as well, the update listed for the RC F is the one I had installed this past Feb at the dealer during my oil change.

I saw a mandatory update and let it download. Everything went through fine for me. Downloaded and installed. But yes I'm not sure what's added. Maybe facebook places? I rarely use the apps so not familiar what has been there.
