Carplay problems ios11 iphone 6 2016 vw golf gti

Since i updated to ios11 iphone 6 my carplay is glitched. It displays onscreen, music works, but text and calls not working. Its dangerous. Ill get a new text notification onmy text icon but when i tap touchscreen to have it read, nothing happens. Same with new text request and using contacts to call. All Siri settings are on. Did not have this issue in ios10.3.3 2016 vw golf gti. Anyone else having same problem? Do not disturb is turned off. Thx

This has been driving me insane for two months and finally solved it this morning. I had a similar problem with my 2017 Alltrack/iPhone 6S. After updating to iOS11, I could no longer tap to select messages. The only way to interact with messages was via Siri, which can get annoying asking her to read unread messages all the time. Doing a VW App-Connect factory reset cleared things up. Not sure if holding the power button on the stereo for 20 seconds accomplishes the same thing, but what I did was to hit the Menu button on the infotainment system then navigate to Setup > Factory Settings > App-Connect > Reset . The next time you connect your iPhone the car will treat it like a new CarPlay connection, but all your CarPlay settings on the phone are retained.
