Car Play

Wired Car play

I have a 2025 QM. For some reason Ineos decided to stop having wired car play. I hate the wireless car play, delay is horrible and doesnt connect 50% of the time (dealer says it is a apple update issue and they are working on a fix)

My question is it possible to have a wired car play installed aftermarket ?

I'm told the USB does not transfer data?

I haven't had any issues with car play, my phone connects every time I get in the car heck it connects when I am not in the car. What do you mean "delay" I openly admit that I am a bit of a luddite but I don't fully understand the issue. I press "skip track" and it skips the track
what I do know is the bluetooth and car play are separate.
I have an iPhone 12, and a 2025 Quartermaster with the standard sound system
my bigger issue is that the knob and the buttons on the center console do different things that pressing the screen, I don't like to press the screen because fingerprints drive me insane

This screen protector fits well and being glass the fingerprints don’t show as badly, plus it can be replaced down the road so the taps won’t eventually make polished spots on the actual screen: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CY8JJT3T?tag=globalgrena0b-20

Lag, latency Videos lag , very delayed. Same with Maps, the delay is horrible

I haven't noticed any performance issues with mine. Also a 2025. iPhone 17 Pro with latest iOS updates. My only complaint is that the steps between volume settings in general is too large and the phone call volume doesn't go high enough.

Basically every MFG is going to wireless only. Simplifies and future proofs wiring for them. I could be wrong, but I don't believe that Ineos has ever had wired CarPlay. It wasn't on the 2024s.

The USB does transfer data - this is one way to update the system. You can do ISA updates and the dealer also does updates via USB. I’ve never tried a cable other than charging, and find wireless CarPlay very reliable.
