iPhone 17 Pro Car play disconnections now after ios 26.0.1 update

[Zapdoc]

Getting lots of carplay disconnects since the new update installed. Did not have these before and the update supposedly to fix this issue
I returned iphone Air and kept 17 Pro so not sure if Air also affected as well
Was enjoying my phone before this update. hopefully it will be fixed soon

Have you tried deleting your vehicle from CarPlay and re-adding it? Also, if this is wireless CarPlay, maybe to a Reset Network Settings on your phone and then re-connect CarPlay.

Okay so I'm not going crazy! The past day or two, my iPhone would just randomly disconnect from my CarPlay and reconnect after a few seconds. My CarPlay is connected via a cable.

I'm on an iPhone 14 Pro, but have noticed the last 2 days that when I'm on CarPlay (wirelessly in 2019 BMW i3S) my phone gets very hot, battery dies quickly, and I think it's overheating because my podcasts periodically pause and/or the map screen gets a bit jittery. Going into Battery settings it does not show any particular app that's eating up the battery. Siri requests also seem to time out more often and I think it's because the CPU is so busy with something. Still gets hot with no destination set and no audio playing.
