iPhone 5 iOS 8 Bluetooth issues with Audi A1

Apon upgrading to ios8 my iPhone connects to my cars bluetooth car kit(Audi A1 2012) but every time I place a call from my car the call drops from my car and i am only able to speak on my phone. Sometimes as my phone connects to the bluetooth kit my car dials the last number in my call log but in fact its not calling at all it just says it is on my cars display...

Please if anyone is having the same issue or knows what to do

I Have a 2008 BMW 535 and a PLANTRONICS headset. Both worked perfectly via Bluetooth before upgrading to iOS 8. Now the phone sees the car and the headset (And vice versa but there is silence when I place a call. If I switch over to iPhone it picks up the audio. I have tried rebooting, re pairing and resetting network connections. Nothing helps.

I have the same issue with my 2013 Camry Atara S. Bluetooth connectivity worked perfectly till I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 8.

Phone connects to the car kit, but as soon as it connects the car indicates and incoming call and I can't stop that unless I try to make a call though the phone. After all that hassle, when I get the phone connected there's no audio via the car kit.


I really hope apple will address this issue ASAP as this is affecting so many car makes and models.

iPhone 5s + Audi A1 MMI was working perfectly good on iOS 7 and since I've upgraded to iOS 8 I can pair the phone, but when listening to a media, even if the iPhone is correctly set as a source, the sound doesnt come out from the car audio system but from the iphone speaker.

I didn't try a phone call so I don't know if this function is still work

Message to Apple developers: the bluetooth pairing works, but the phone works as if there's no active pairing.


We thank you for fixing that !
