My iPhone5 won't reconnect to my Subaru Forester Bluetooth radio. I have to go and delete the iphone from the radio and pair the phone and radio everytime. I never had this issue with my samsung

Thanks. Worked like a champ! Took a couple minutes to figure out that the voice system was guiding me through the steps, but once I responded to the "listening" message with "set up" the process got underway easily.

The salesman told me the Bluetooth connection for the 2015 Forester will not access the iphone 5s directory, that you have to add each number manually by voice command. This is for the the non-nav system (I don't know about the nav system).

My 2014 Forester and iphone 5s still won't won't stay paired with these instructions, it worked for the first 6 months though! My steering column controls won't let me do the setup without using radio knobs and when it askes me to confirm the phone name it doesn't understand my perfect english! Keeps saying "pardon?" and I can only confirm with radio knobs. Need more suggestions!

Thanks, michaelta! Doing it by voice, rather than controls, worked for me with my 2015 Forester and iphone 6, with iOS 8.1.2.

This completely worked for me. I have an iPhone 4S and a 2013 Outback. Thank you, thank you!

This was amazing. I never had a problem with my iPhone5, after connecting once to my Impreza 2013 it always connected back.

But when I got an iPhone6 I had to manually connect every time I got in my car. Incredibly annoying and inefficient.
I followed the instructions in this thread and the connection now works. Only tested for a few days but so far so good.

Thanks!
