Since iOS11 Bluetooth keeps disconnecting

Since I upgraded to OS11 my iPhone 6 keeps disconnecting from the Bluetooth in my car, a Mazda 6 2015 vintage. To reconnect I have to select the phone on my cars infotainment unit and off it goes working for a while longer until it again disconnects mid song. This didn’t occur prior to OS11, any ideas?

I had the same problem with my VW Sharan and it‘s „professional“ hands-free. I tried every update after 11.0. Apple support was not helpful at all, essentially suggesting I look for firmware updates for the car. As if the car hadn’t been working just fine until iOS 11 came along.

Anyway, after upgrading the phone to 11.2.1, I have not had any more disconnects. Knocking on wood that it stays that way...
