I started with graphene a few months ago and it worked from the beginning just following the instructions on the phone to enable it. That said I do recall aention of extra permissions for Bluetooth android auto, which I didn’t want. My car doesn’t support it over Bluetooth anyway so didn’t matter to me, but you may be interested in looking that up (I don’t recall the specifics).
Sounds awesome, thank you. I tried it years ago and I’m pretty sure at that point they just said there’s no support for it. It was the main holdout for me, never cared about the nfc payments really, so I’m excited to try it out again
IIRC AA leverages Bluetooth to avoid audio conflicts and to further verify you’re connected to the correct vehicle. Some setups use it to know when to power up/power down the vehicle’s AA hardware. (At least, I have a dongle that does this, because the car is stupid and allows power to be drawn over its USB port when everything else is off.)
I used it on Graphene for a week or two back in Sept. That was in the EU and if I recall correctly I used wired Android Auto, so I’m not sure about wireless. It worked well. Car was a Skoda.

Does Android Auto still not work?
It’s been working fine for me for months.
That’s great to hear, I think I’m jumping back to graphene

It’s optional and not really needed.

I’ve been on Graphene for a year and have never had trouble with Android Auto.
