Hello St123,


It sounds like your new iPhone 11 isn't syncing contacts with your car as expected.


If you've verified the iPhone is up to date in Settings > General > About, be sure to check the iPhone 6 is disconnected and unpaired from the car before starting a sync with the new phone.


We can use the following article to check the supported Bluetooth profiles for your iOS device and version. Bluetooth profiles that iOS and iPadOS support


If you don't see your profile there, you'll want to contact the car manufacturer regarding compatibility and further help syncing.


Keep us posted on what you've discovered, and we'll offer additional tips.


Have a nice day!
