      There’s also Speeduino for engine control. I built one of these to control fuel injection on an 4.0L engine swap for my CJ.

  • I’ve seen solutions with semi-integrated Raspberries to create multimedia and telephony capabilities. But everything that requires an interface to the car sensors is closed down and I’m unaware of any solutions to this.

    • The control system is supposed to be in complete isolation from the media system. The media one is usually a customised Android. If you find instructions online, feel free to do whatever you want with it. The worst case scenario is that you won’t be able to listen to music or to navigate.

      With that being said, just install anything you like to the media system. Any Linux dostro can be an automobile distro.

    • What car sensors are normally accessible to CarPlay and Android Auto, and what are they used for?

      My car doesn’t expose any car features or sensors to CarPlay at all. I just use the connected display for maps and playing audio.

      Could you link the RPi projects that you’ve seen? Sounds interesting.

    • speeduino. the solution to do engine control in a foss way is speeduino.

      its a lot of work retuning it though. only really worth it if you are modding it in the first place.

  • TunerStudio MS is a software that works on Linux that let’s you tune your Mega Squirt, which is an open source ECU for cars.

    If you have an old Rover V8 14CUX engine you can use RoverGauge on Linux to see some basic engine diagnostics.
