Hey Qashqai owners, Nissan should provide an update to the headunit bringing wireless android auto support. We have WiFi in the J11 car headunit. How can we contact Nissan for this?

Welcome to this forum.

Even the latest Niddan models did not get Wireless Android support.
Nor the Nissan Rogue / Sport (US), nor the Nissan Qasqai J12 (UK) so ... I would not hold my breath !
The only way is to order an "android wireless module" from Indiegogo and hope it to work with the Bosh headunit (there were issue for supporting the Nissan/Bosh headunits, but they are probably solved by now ?).
Android (and -support) is a mess compared to Apple Carplay.
Don't think Nissan is to blame here ... if Wireless Android would be "easy" (like it seems with Wireless Carplay support in the QQ J12) they would have done it I guess !?
Good Luck.

I just got my AAWireless unit from that indiegogo campaign. After pairing my phone with it, android auto opened just fine and I briefly tested listening music through plexamp. It worked just fine with my J12.

ilkka, that is some great news, thank you !!!
I also ordered the AAwireless indiegogo unit, my perk is locked, but I did not get delivery confirmation.
May I please ask when your ordered the AAWireless unit ?
Which smartphone do you have (that works fine) ... if I may ask ?
Thanks !

Today I received my AAWireless dongle (in anticipation because I don't have my QQ yet).
I am thrilled the prediction / promise was kept that I would get the AAWireless in less than 4 month time which under the global conditions is still great !
IMHO this AA Wireless should be standard in any 2021 QQ (or any other car for that matter).
I guess if I were to get the new Google Pixel 6 smartphone with Android 12 it should work ... or the Android 11 Oneplus according to ilkka and Samsung phones according to the AAWireless forums !?

Imo, sat nav driven from the phone is a battery killer so I personally would never run android auto without my phone being plugged in anyway!
