Would it be possible to replace my 6.5 screen to an 8.8 if so will I need to code the 8.8 screen. In order to function properly or is it plug and play?

Yes you just need to find the code for the screen resolution I have done it before but dont recall the code name.
Here are the codes:
HU_NBT > 3000 HMI > DISPLAY_SIZE_RESOLUTION = 8.8_1280x480
HU_NBT > 3001 EXBOX > DISPLAY_VARIANTE = breites_display
PLEASE NOTE: HU_ENTRY = can't be done. If your car has HU_ENTRYNAV (Introduced 7/14) then you can do it.
Let us know how you get on and please change to SOLVED if this has fixed your issue.
Thank you!

At entrynav systems and android units with 10.25 inch screen, what resolution have to code? 8.8 or 10.25 ?

Android screens are not OEM so no coding required. Is just a matter of you taking the old screen off and plug the Android screen and 'everything' is working.
I know, but when you return from the android menu to the oem, if you code 10.25 resolution everything looks better.
If the car had 6.5 and you install android, coding for 10.25 is ideal solution.

Actually it makes no sense at all as you coding the HU (Head Unit) to display the resolution, and the Android screen is not taking that data from HU.
And as far as I know, you can't code an 8.8 display to 10.25 resolution. But I never tried
