Q: CarPlay Audio Issues with 9.x on iPhone 6s+

I too am having the same exact problems as everyone else in this thread.

I own a Pioneer NEX AVH-4100 and on occassion experience these same issue:

1) Plug iphone 6s Plus into usb1

2) CarPlay starts and open/play music app.

3) Sounds of digital scratches or no sound at all play while iPhone and headunit shows they are playing the current track.

4) Lose my **** (get upset)

5) unplug then Quick reset with home and lock button on iPhone.

6) home screen, then repeat step 1 & 2.

My problem is solved after step 6 and my music plays normally from then on.

Apple needs to address this issue with their CarPlay software. They advertise on tv for this feature with their iPhone, but is buggy with the Pioneer NEX models. Please update your customers Apple and let them know you at least acknowledge this problem!!

My quick solution is temporary, but I hope this helps others.

Try to plug your iphone before turning on your radio. This solves my simil issue.

Hi,

I have an Opel Astra K with Carplay intergrated. Also have the same problems as everyone mentioned. I have an iPhone 6s running latest beta of 9.3 firmware.

It makes no difference between 9.2.1 and 9.3 betas, it won't work properly. The reason to choose this car was for the integrated Carplay, this in combination with Itunes Match, so i can listen to all my music.

For some reason you have to use Siri to search for your albums, but that's the problem, Siri works only two out of ten times. Mostly the system won't do anything or freezes. Already tested it with a couple iPhones but still the same problems. This is far behind my expectations. Second thing is that I don't know if it's an problem in my car or firmware related.

I recently purchased a 2016 Accord, which has CarPlay built in. Since I have had the car I have had problems with the audio stopping, while the UI shows the media is still playing. I have found through extensive testing that it usually stops after I use another app (native or 3rd party) that uses the Mic on the phone, at which point the audio fails to switch back on. The fastest way to make this happen is to open the camera app. The fastent way to correct the problem for me is to ask Siri a question ("Siri, what is 5 +5?") or tell Siri to pound sand. After Siri responds the radio will, more times then not, resume. This is a total hack and obviously needs to be fixed, but it is kinda therapeutic to tell Siri to perform explicit sexual acts upon herself.

I upgraded to IOS 10 and bought a new Chevy. The day I picked up the car CarPlay worked immediately. By the next day nothing. Nothing I have tried has worked? Any suggestions?

I was hoping to hear that iOS 10 would help, but apparently not. I haven't tried it yet. What type of Chevy?

TThe car I bought is a chevy Malibu hybird . I managed to get CarPlay to work by turning OFF Bluetooth. Once Car Play logs into car I turn Bluetooth back on. But there seems to be some cross confusion between the car & the phone. So the best bet is when in car turn off Bluetooth .

on.
