Android Auto on old flashed device (5.1.1)

Hey guys, I asked this question on AndroidCentral and no replies since 2 weeks, so I'm asking here :)

I have a 2016 Golf which has Android Auto.
I also have an old Galaxy Note 2 (SGH-1317M) which runs very fine but wasn't compatible with Android Auto.

Yesterday, I rooted the device and flashed a new rom to 5.1.1
For now, Google lets me download the Android Auto app on the phone. However, when I connect it to my car, it says that my device is not compatible. I am also able to open the app on my phone but it says that my phone is not compatible either.

Is there a way to change the "name" of my device to make it compatible at that point (I heard a build.prop file but i'm not sure).
For now, the device model in my settings is "GT-N7105". Let's say I would change the name for the Galaxy Note 5 name.

Before modifying the Build.prop, I just want to make sure that it will work.

Thanks!
