Android Auto - Nexus 5x - Skoda Octavia-how can I get it working?

[AC Question]

Android Auto - Nexus 5x - Skoda Octavia

Hello, I'm using a Nexus 5X and drive a Škoda Octavia. I'm not able to connect my Nexus 5X to Android Auto and it says that the device isn't supported. As soon as I connect the USB-C cable, I should ideally be asked for permissions on my phone but I don't get anything. My car asks if I should import contacts. Once I say ok it says device not supported. Please help.

Exact same problem with Seat. Do you have a solution already?

The problem is Android auto is not available in the netherlands at this moment. There is a work arround set your phone in developer mode and use a site as apkmirror to download Android auto. Install the APK and have fun!
