Car Bluetooth Connectivity Issue with iPhone 6

I did unbond in the car then forget on the phone, then upgraded.

Hope this helps.

Yeah... my one still doesn't work... I tried today, a lot of times and did all the things suggested, but no way it worked! I can't listen to music in my car or place and receive calls! I'm soooo mad! I can't believe! I have a hyundai car.... AHHHHHHH this is a bul****.

Same issue here. I5s worked perferctly on iOS7. Extremely Poor Performance on iOS8.0 through iOS8.1 in a Chevy Volt. I have another I5s still on iOS7 and that work perfectly.

Go figure, but I woke up this morning with a dead battery in my car. Put in a new battery and all of sudden my blue tooth synced perfectly fine with no problems at all. Not sure how they correlate, but I guess the battery in my car being low, caused my bluetooth not to work for the past few weeks.. Who knows.

I'm having the same issue with my new iPhone 6 and my 2014 mini cooper's bluetooth connection. It drove me nuts today, I did pretty much everything that has been suggested in this post and it drops my calls. It's paired and connected to the car's bluetooth...I can dial a number but as soon as the person answers it drops the call from the car but it's still active on my phone. I had no issues with my iPhone 5 before however when I upgraded to iOS 8, I encountered something like this but I was able to make it work.

has anyone found a permanent fix??

Not yet. Apple is a joke.

Well, I can't explain it. For some unknown reason my phone decided to work with the car today....

The only thing I did was to do a hard reset yesterday......

Probably be broken again yesterday!!

Install iOS 8.1. It solves the proble.

nuh - uh

After the 8.1 update the car was able to locate the iPhone 6 and connect. FINALLY! Being without hands-free phone service in the car for over a month was a (dangerous) pain in the butt.

Does the music skip when played over BT with the wifi On and with the wifi Off. Please report.

Tested just for you 🙂 No problems with music with or without WiFi - at least, so far.

I'm a new iPhone user. Just got an iPhone 6 and patched it to iOS 8.1. It will connect to both cars (2013 Lexus GS350 and 2015 GMC Yukon Denali). I can make and receive phone call. However, I do not get any notifications when I receive a text message.

This worked fine with me previous phones (Nokia 920 and HTC 8x, both running Windows 8). In fact, I could listen and reply to the text messages via voice (Bluetooth made a connection to Cortana). I expected the same functionality with Siri. I thought finally switching over to an iPhone was supposed to be a step forward, not a major step backwards. Please don't tell me I made a mistake switching from Windows to iOS...

WWelcome to a crap device. even my Bluetooth headphones don't work anymore. Apple you are killing me!!!

I spoke too soon.... crazy problems with playing playlists.... most annoying is that when advancing to the next track, the music pauses instead. the pause can't be resumed via the car and the only way to start the music is on the phone itself. I have other non-bluetooth, non-auto problems with this phone and will take it back to Apple soon. Aaaarrruuuggghhhh
