Will 4th gen Uconnect work in older Journeys?


Recommended Posts

Will it be possible to put one of the new uconnect 4th gen radios from a Challanger or Charger into a 2016 journey? I've got the 8.4 right now, but would like to be able to use android auto (mainly for navigation). If not, is there a better option for adding nav to the regular 8.4? I read that you can buy a code from Chrysler, but i'm not paying $600 for that. Crutchfield has some nice systems that I would go to before that I think.

The quick answer is 'no'.  And even if you could you'd still have to pay the extra $600 to activate the nav app.- the 8.4A is a closed system, so if you bought a Charger or 300 you'd still be stuck for the activation.

 

If you want in dash and go aftermarket you will lose some functionality. 
 

The simplest and cheapest way to add nav is to install a self contained device like a Garmin 3790 with speech recognition.
