Sony Xperia C4 doesn't work with Android Auto

Hi

I have just bought a Sony Xperia C4 16gb with Lollipop 5.0 and I set it up normally (As most of my other android phones).

I have installed just few social apps like facebook, whatsapp... and removed the antivirus and other "not useful" software like that

Then Installed ANDROID AUTO and connected the mobile to my Skoda Octavia (produced in September 2015) with radio Bolero and Android Auto / Mirror Link functionality.

The mobile asked to install or update certain apps, so I did it.

Then followed the steps and started the app.

The mobile shows a black screen with AndroidAuto logo on it. That's ok.

But the display of the car doesn't show anything. It goes to blank and that's it.

I have checked almost everything I can imagine, everything is upgraded, changed the USB cable, reboot the mobile, and the car.

I have 4G, and GPS enabled in high precision




I have latest version of Android available for this phone, and also Google Maps, Google, Google Play Music, Google TalkBack, Síntesis de voz de Google,

I don't have installed "Google Now Launcher"

I had a BQ Aquaris E5 HD Lollipop before and it was able to run AndroidAuto with my car.


Any idea on what to do?

Does anyone know if this mobile is AndroidAuto compatible?

Thanks

That website doesn't work in Spain.

I have tried it with different phones in different locations with GPS and G4 connectivity and never worked.

I tried that website with a Galaxy S4, Galaxy S5, BQ Aquaris, Xperia M4, Xperia C4, Galaxy A3...
