Rant over. Carry on.

Hi,

Same problem on Porsche 2024 Cayenne, wireless car play working perfectly until ios 17.6.1 now won't recognise the phone, phone says it is connected but won't open car play. Troubleshooted extensively as above but with no luck.

I am having the same issue with a Toyota tacoma

Same here since 17.6.1 on 2024 Dodge Durango and 2023 Nissan Pathfinder. Shows that it’s connected with the cable but just a generic name of “iPhone”. But won’t connect for CarPlay. 2 USB ports, 2 different cables. Reset everything. Still no connection. Very frustrating. Defeats the function of “hands free”!

FIXED… after resetting the Honda Accord back to it's factory setting, and re-connecting.

Before this 2 of the 5 iPhones linked to the car were deletable from the car's list, but the other 3 would go into a loop, and end up un-deleted. Confounding… maybe Honda Accord, and others, have some indexing issue that was exacerbated by the 17.6.1 release… who knows… question is can  and Honda collaborate to debug this and prevent similar issues.

I can't believe how much we missed  CarPlay !

So after a month of playing with settings, updates etc.

I tried all of the recommended steps, none of them worked I finally have a solution to my car play.

(Nissan xtrail)

rather than turning the infotainment system into a reset, I went into the main menu and did a factory reset that way. Now it is working, connecting no issue not intermittent and sound is back.

I had got it connecting intermittently with maps but no audio, now everything is working.

so recommend trying factory reset if you haven’t!

FIXED (BMW)!

I did the following:

1. I unpaired my car and my phone in both places and removed all the connections
2. Turned on the car's engine
3. Did a hard reset of a multimedia system (in BMW it is press and hold the power button. The same button for volume control). Google how to properly reset your car
4. Restarted my iPhone
5. Re-paired my iPhone from my car

Have the same Problem with my AudiA4 B9. Carplay after update doesn’t work

CP works ok with both our 17.6.1 iPhones in our Dodge Ram

neither work on the Honda Accord

so there is some car make specific issue since the update

we are lost without CarPlay

I’m currently thinking this may be my issue also on a 2024 Tahoe. Had been working fine for months and now can’t get it wireless or plug in wire on the last week.

Same problem with renault clio5, all other phone work on my car

same here. wireless carplay stop work after 17.6.1 upgrade. work fine if i connected with a usb cable. why would this happen (not the first time). Any schedule on the fix ?

I'm also having the same issue on my 24' Chevy Silverado, I'm connected to Bluetooth, but Carplay will not open. It's also very spotty when connected via cable. It just started today 9.6.24. I've tried everything with my phone and head unit to resolve the problem, but no luck.

Apple car play isn’t working after 17.6.1 update.

I have reset iPhone, car audio interface.

deleted and re- set up all connections

all of the settings are appropriate

sometimes it comes up but won’t connect other times just not seeing any device.

Car is a Nissan Xtrail.

Apple - looks like you have a global issue needs a patch fix asap !!!

My 2020 RAV4 has the same issue. Happens all the time before the next big release. They have you jump through hoops and once the new release comes it is fixed. Last year the wireless devices got it to work. Good thing Car Play doesn’t run the whole car. Yet. This the third year in a row that this has happened. Last year it was a patch to fix car play that broke mine. I had to pull out my old garmin so I had navigation for a trip. You would think they read these, nope.
