Q: iPhone 5 Bluetooth issues with car

Well I had mine programmed yesterday and it resolved the known incoming call issue.  I spent 4 hours in the car today driving on a work trip and received multiple calls and all worked very well.  So far so good.

Great news.  Very exciting.  I have an appointment this afternoon with Infiniti and hope for the best.  Will let everyone know if it works

After not being able to pair a Citroen DS3 with iP5 since launch, I can now confirm that latest software upgrade from Citroen (3.2) enables pairing.

Have you read the prior posts?  The problem isn't with iOS; it is with the software in the headunit not being 100% compliant to Bluetooth standards.  Rest assured that Infiniti/Nissan (or, more probably, its software supplier) is not diverting from standards now just to get the iPhone 5 to work.

I called into Audi again, still no ETA on the fix but they are working on making it compatible.

I just got off the phone with Nissan Canada. The patch will be delayed in Canada and I was told to stay in touch with my Nissan dealership for further notice. The represetative also said that Apple is working on a fix. I can only assume Apple is not working on this fix in isolation. I for one am glad that Nissan acted proactively in finding a fix. It makes no difference who is at fault, only that the issue gets fixed for the majority of users.

I have a Infiniti 2012 G37 XS with Nav, got mine loaded with the update today & it seems to have fixed incoming call problem!!

One thing I would suggest is to make sure you dont have a route programmed on the nav when they load the CD. It made my nav freak out when I tried to cancel the route or add a new one, it was freezing the entire system. Finally after 15 minutes it cancelled, then everything worked normally after that.

I had my 2013 Pathfinder in for service today to apply the firmware upgrade.  It took about 20 minutes and I can confirm this issue is fixed.  I noticed a few new pieces of functionality (the iPod input now shows the track numbers)

Good job Nissan/Infinity!

2012 Infiniti M.  Had the update applied today and everything works as it should. 

This should be appropriate ammo for anyone complaining to a different automaker and hearing the excuse that the fix needs to come from Apple.

My 2012 m also installed today. Driving home received 2 calls worked great!  Thank you Infiniti! 

Just curious, is Infiniti charging for the update?

No they aren't. They did mine in less than 30 mins, no charge.

Anyone heard anything from GM about an Intellilink fix?

Last I called, they said the fix was in test. No target availability date.

Thanks, Jon!

Does Bluetooth streaming work better now? Some times the meta data (Song Title, Artist Name, Album Name) won't display or won't update.

What about reading text messages received via iPhone 5. I could never get it to work.

I hope starting a call via the iPhone won't switch the head unit back to music after the call is placed. Thats my main pet peeve with the current functionality with my 2013 Altima SV.
