My iPhone 7 doesn’t connect to CarPlay on my new Subaru. My husbands 5s does. Why won’t mine. It is updated.
Yes my phone is paired and can make calls and receive messages etc. my vehicle doesn’t show up when going to settings-general-CarPlay

If your car supports Carplay, plugging the iPhone into the USB socket should immediately cause it to show it on screen.
What model of Subaru is it?
Have you checked the users manual to see if there's something you need to do to enable it?

I’ve done that several times. I also meet with the dealers tech support and my phone service provider.
Does your car actually Support Wireless carplay?
It will only show up there if it supports wireless carplay and is in pairing mode, or your phone is connected to it via USB.
Have you put the Subaru's entertainment system into Pairing mode?
I have it connected through the USB port and still nothing shows up for CarPlay
Hello,
It should eventually work. You may have to "mess" with it.
Restart the car, restart the phone, disconnect and reconnect the cable etc. It took me a few tries to get it going :-)
Good luck.
Nothing shows up on CarPlay available cars. The wheel just keeps going around.
