It's a version of so called Composition Media. The Composition Colour (the baseline unit) would have only 3+3 buttons. The navigation unit would have two SD slots + NAV button, obviously.

The T6 Infotainment & Car-Net SSP-562

1 - it’s a crappy Discover Media unit, not worth anything like the prices you see online
2 - it probably won’t work unless component protection has been removed
Edit - I re-read your post, if it’s already fitted then no problem, it’s not worth very much if you try to sell it on due to being coded to your van and it costing £170ish to get unlocked.

@ Insert Coin, brutally honest which I don’t mind at all. So on the back your post what would you replace it with?
I’m just bitter and twisted that I paid £1200 for mine and all it’s ever done is crash, reset etc.
I notice the T6.1 version is equally crap judging by the posts on here too.
If yours runs ok and your not big into Appconnect etc then by all means leave it as it is.
I replaced mine with a Kenwood, infinitely better in every way and annoyingly was also about £1200ish.
As I’ve said before on here, the Disco unit is the biggest waste of money I’ve ever spent.

I am moving from a 2018 Q5 which has amazing virtual dash and amazing stereo system hence I think I will be majorly disappointed with this heat unit. It’s just too small hence the move to a T6 T32.
My wife has a Q5 with the virtual colour speedo/nav thingy, yeah it’s a lovely bit of kit.
The T6 is a better all rounder though and the audio can be upgraded fairly cheaply starting with silent coat and some component speakers

Cheers @Insert Coin very good to know. Will take me back to the days of my XR2 and modding that
Loving the Kenwood 9190Dab
And how do you find lack of volume knob?
I use the steering wheel unless the ignition is off, I can use the Kenwood app to control the headunit if I’m in the back or outside etc
I have a MSFW but generally prefer using the rotary volume knob on the head unit itself. I am seriously thinking of changing the head unit but I think the lack of a volume knob would bother me.
I have the Composition Colour, the most basic touch screen one. I really crave AppConnect, but really like the OEM look. Stealers wanted £795+vat for the Discovery Media unit fitted when I bought the van. No way I could stomach that.
The sound quality of mine is superb though, although the rear speakers seem weak when sitting in the front.

Yes, I'd done the entire van previously. Inc doors both inner and outers.
That's just wrong. Having the power symbol on knob it any other way than vertical should not be allowed.
There is a solution to those without a MFSW tho',
