Just curious if the software of the multimedia system can be updated, and where to do that? Not the GPS maps but the firmware for the whole unit, sometimes the bluetooth acts funny and I'm wondering if a software update would solve the issue.

This is for a 2014 model Cerato

Hey guys, I have a 2014 Kia Cerato and the touchscreen on the head unit has been giving me problems for a while now. It doesn't register any touches but the controls on the steering wheel are responsive, so I'm pretty sure its just a touchscreen problem.

Its still a problem since I mostly use it with bluetooth and that requires accessing from the touchscreen.

Anyway my question is anyone here changed their head unit? Got any recommendations?

My main worry/issue is that a replacement wont be as responsive to things like switching to the parking camera or might take longer to start-up, or not work well with the steering wheel controls.

Have u try to recalibrate the touchscreen?

I tried back when the problem wasn't too bad, didn't resolve it.

Before it used to work sometimes and not other times, now it seems like it never works. Touch doesn't register most of the time but sometimes random touches all over register somewhere else, example a touch on the left side will be registered on the right.

Chip based electronics has a certain lifespan, much like smart phones, it won't last forever, unfortunately. Time to change bro.

Yeah, I don't mind changing but don't want to end up with one with other kinds of issues biggrin.gif

Third party ones quality can be hit or miss, that's why thought to ask here for suggestions.
