iPhone 6 Plus Not Working with Bluetooth in Car

slojave said:

I have a iPhone 6 Plus (64 GB/Space Gray/ATT) that is pairing with my car's bluetooth system (Subaru Legacy 2011) but I'm unable to make outgoing or take incoming calls.

Is anyone else having issues with their iPhone 6/iPhone 6 Plus connecting to their car bluetooth system? Thanks for any help!

Same for me with an Infiniti Q50. Bluetooth audio works, but not phone. Shows "No Service". 5S with iOS 8 is fine.

I have the same issue

I'm curious if the above solution will work with others. Please let me know. Thanks!

Try the solution that just worked for me. Let me know if it works for you.

I still cant this to work either, even after trying your solution. Very aggravating

Same problem here with 2013 BMW 3 series and iPhone 6. The fix above didn't work for me. As a matter of fact, I deleted my iPhone 5 from iCloud and find my iPhone before ever attempting to pair my iPhone 6 to my car. So not sure how much it has to do with iCloud.

Going crazy here still trying to make it work. Any other suggested fixes?

iPhone 6 not working with 2013 Porsche PCM 981 either. Pairing fine, bluetooth music streaming works, and can dial out calls, but no audio or mic when in call. So annoying...

Yep, those are my exact symptoms. Apple needs to address this NOW. unacceptable.

So i've found a fix that worked for me!

1)Resetting Network Settings,
2)Removing all bluetooth devices from my car PCM
3)Resetting the car PCM (Switch engine on and off)
4)Re-pair the devices

Seem to be working; BT aux music streaming working, syncing phonebooks, call lists, making calls, receiving calls and audio/mic in calls.

Keep trying resetting and I'm sure it'll start working

Same issue here. iPhone 6, 2013 bmw 335. Reset network settings did not work for me BUT reset all settings did work. Thank god. Having hands free calling is a must for my job. I was beside myself.

iPhone 6, 128 Gig Verizon.
No problem syncing phone or audio to a 2010 Nissan Altima.

I'm having issues as well with a 2014 F150 - using an iPhone 5 on iOS 8.

My 6 isn't syncing properly with my Infiniti G37. Everything works except actual calls.

iPhone 6 works great with Toyota Prius 2010-- music, phone, contacts perfect.

Works great in my Model T Ford!!

Last night I noticed the same problem. Car (2015 VW GTI) showed "No Service". After messing around in the settings on the head unit in the car, I noticed my old phone was still there. As I also restored my iPhone 6 from a backup of that phone, I just assumed that the streams were being crossed (this is a no no on many levels... ). My solution, which worked, was to simply remove ALL devices listed from the head unit in the car, and FORGET the car in the Bluetooth settings on the phone. Re-pair, problem solved.

Good luck!

Edit: Sorry, didn't see vivig0su's response. Credit where it's due.

Fix for Fords with My Ford Touch

This solution worked for me - I have a 2014 F150 with My Ford Touch. I know it wont work for everyone, but hopefully it helps someone...

**For those without a Ford, try using steps 1, 2, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12**

1. Delete SYNC from bluetooth list on iPhone
2. Turn off bluetooth on iPhone
3. Start truck
4. Remove Navigation SD card
5. Factory reset My Ford Touch (Settings > System > Master Reset > Yes)
6. Reset ALL Settings on iPhone (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
7. After SYNC completes rebooting, turn truck off and cycle the system.
8. Insert Navigation SD car into truck.
9. Turn bluetooth on, on iPhone
10. Touch 'connect a phone' on My Ford Touch
11. Pair iPhone with SYNC
12. Enjoy the sweet sweet bluetooths again!!! (audio AND phone)

Note: You will need to set up your preferences throughout the SYNC system and install any backgrounds again. You will also need to go through the settings app on your iPhone and make sure the settings are as you wish there as well.

Is that still working in your truck? I had mine disconnect the first day I connected to my Escape (my ford touch w/ sync) and then re-paired and it worked .. made a call for a while with no problems. Today.. disconnected again.

I'll try again tomorrow and post what my results are for you.

I reset my ford touch system twice and re paired my phone and it still disconnects the Bluetooth after 5 seconds. Ugh. I've used Bluetooth in cars for years and never had this happen. I've paired friends phones to my car no problem. My 5s with ios 8 worked so I believe it's something with the 6 that needs updating.

Hey njchris ... I was successfully able to use the bluetooth audio and calling again today without any issues. The fix I outlined is working perfectly for me. I do have a 2014 F150 and iPhone 6+ so if your setup is different, then results may vary.
