Have you tried pairing CarPlay but having it connected through usb and lightening cable?

KevinC · 10-09-2021, 11:32 AM

^^ that's not gonna work. CarPlay in our cars is 100% wireless.

I had trouble too. Just start from scratch - delete the phone from the car, remove it from CarPlay, and start over. That got me going again.

all good here on new iphone 13 pro...

MR RIZK · 10-10-2021, 01:47 AM

No issue 11 Pro..

Pottah · 10-10-2021, 10:58 AM

No issues here. 13 pro max

shahano · 10-10-2021, 11:36 AM

Hey Tupps, no issue with mine as well. depair and re-pair. Should work

DrKevM5 · 10-10-2021, 12:49 PM

I did have problems with mine (11pro max). Had to do network reset and re sync Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connections.

No issues with the update on my XS Max, but after trading it for a 13 Pro Max I had to delete the device and pair it again. No issues since, other than my Escort Redline doesn't always like to connect to my phone now. Same phone, same app no problem in my truck with a 360 max.

This is the way... had to do it when upgraded to new iPhone 13 Pro recently.

When I got my iPhone 13 Pro, it failed to pair via Carplay or Bluetooth. I restarted both the phone and the car, but it would fail every time. What did work is letting the car sit for 30 min or whatever it is so the infotainment system / iDrive actually powers down and reboots when you power it on.

I don't know if it's the same, but on the e chassis you held in the power knob for an extended period of time to force the iDrive to reboot. Haven't needed to do it in the f87.

Tupps11 · 10-13-2021, 06:48 AM

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Basically tried everything this morning but couldn't get a positive result.

First, i went into CarPlay settings in my phone to delete the pairing profile ("forget this car") with the car and did a reboot for my iPhone (12 mini) after.

Second, i deleted the phone profile from the iDrive itself.

Third, i pressed and held the volume button for 30 seconds and rebooted the iDrive of the car.

Finally, i restarted the pairing process from scratch and it always gets me to the final step where i confirm both on the car and the phone to proceed with pairing, and it just gets stuck on the "Pairing in progress. This process can take some time".

But it never completes. It just times out and says process failed. "Ok" or "Retry"

MR RIZK · 10-13-2021, 10:26 AM

Try another iPhone with same version of iOS to see if car or phone issue.

NathObeaN · 10-13-2021, 02:13 PM

iOS 15.0.2 released today with some fixes to apps not working in CarPlay. Might be worth trying if you have issues.

f87CSdrifterential · 10-15-2021, 09:28 AM

I don't know if this will help at all, but I had to reset all network settings on my phone even after the latest update. It re-sync with Verizon, but I lost all of my wireless settings. I no longer have any of my saved networks. It was suggested to me after I had continuous issues with making outgoing calls showing a pop up with last line no longer available.
Maybe it will work for you.

Tried my wife's 12 Pro. She hasn't updated her iOS yet. It worked.

I downloaded and updated yesterday to this newer version. Still the same shit. It gets to the last step of pairing "Connecting to Apple CarPlay...This process may take some time."

Then it just times out and says "Retry"

So annoyed!!!

f87CSdrifterential · 10-19-2021, 09:45 PM

Did you try resetting the network settings?

I did this and also left the car alone while off for 30 min which is probably the same thing as forcibly rebooting. Just resetting the network settings didn't fix it for me, but OP should try it I think. I was able to complete pairing eventually.

I did a full reset of all settings. It doesn't wipe the data from your phone, but it basically resets everything back to default settings (including network). It still didn't pair.

I tried rebooting the iDrive by doing a long press. Even after rebooting both the iDrive and my iPhone, i tried again and it did the same thing you see in the pics i posted above.

I went on youtube and tried a bunch of those fixes like turning off settings and rebooting the phone. Then turning them back on and pairing. Still the same.

chris719 may i ask what you did that made it eventually work? I didn't understand what OP means in your post.

EDIT: I even considered disconnecting the car battery and letting it sit for 20 minutes then reconnecting. Not sure if that's a good idea or worth trying.

Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. This also resets Wi-Fi networks and passwords, cellular settings, and VPN and APN settings that you've used before.

I suspect the reset of the network settings wasn't what did it, only coincidental. I probably only needed to reboot the iPhone and iDrive.

This network reset is what I was talking about. If you didn't lose your WiFi passwords it wasn't the same one.
