Car Play

Anyone having issue connecting to Apple CarPlay? Recently updated iPhone iOS and sometime soon after my phone will not connect to the truck. Deleted phone and reinstalled several times to no avail. Any suggestions?

The recent IOS Beta is a bit more stable, but the previous versions did have some significant CarPlay connectivity issues with the Grenadier. I found that simply turning blue tooth off and back on would allow the system to connect. I still have occasional issues. It even causes problems with T-Link on android head units.

Don’t know what this message means. Couldn’t get in to CarPlay until the next restart. Didn’t change any settings and it went back to normal.

Mine started playing up last week. It coincided with me picking it up from the dealer after the SP1 software update.
Sometimes it connects. Sometimes it doesnt. An internet search indicates it's a widespread issue with IOS 26, but it's inconsistent but for me, it wasn't doing it prior to the service.

Turning off bluetooth on the phone and then turning it back on again seems to work for me

Another thing to try, on your phone turn off and on again the Bluetooth connection to INEOS-BT-2020.

Done that (multiple times) as well as forget/delete the pairing.

I read the following and have done this but not used the car multiple times since:

The first line fix that repeatedly resolves 26.x Bluetooth glitches is resetting network settings, which clears Bluetooth/Wi‑Fi/VPN profiles and forces all devices to be re‑paired. On iPhone 17, that is Settings → General → Transfer or Reset iPhone → Reset → Reset Network Settings, then re‑pair your car and other devices. Many users also need to “forget” problem accessories first (Settings → Bluetooth → tap the info icon → Forget This Device), then put the accessory/car in pairing mode and set it up again as if new

edit added: I just walked out to the car (first time today) and it fired up carplay without issue. So, keeping fingers crossed.
