Does anyone else have problems with Bluetooth connecting and the dropping out?

I have an iphone and it connects to the car when I get in all on its own which is great. Then when I try to play music etc it plays for 15-20 seconds then stops then it’s like the system disconnects the phone then reconnects again. We do this for several times before eventually it stays connected and plays.

Tried with cable also and have the same problem.

It’s driving me mental

Is it an iPhone 8? I have had problems with 8 in my RRS, D4 and trouble and strife’s Freelander. iPhone 7 and 6 work fine. RRS P460e

Many big trips done in this one.

Nice 2013 Freelander TD4 manual (for daughter to learn on) with much better stereo compared with previous SD4 SE with Meridian which sounded bad!

Today I have the iPhone X but last week and since I got the car in September it has been a iPhone 7 Plus.

iPhone 7 works fine in my cars. iPhone 8 seems to have a problem especially when I use Siri. If I use car controls for phone no prob. RRS P460e

Mine have always worked perfectly but they just keep dropping and rebooting

Never had any problems with Blutooth phone conectivity on my 2010 TDV8 even with the newer IPhone X - system works perfectly

Just had mine sorted with a software update, it kept dropping out whilst on a call and music would came back on then it would just resume the call.

Yes that’s what happens to me.

Was it just a software update then that fixed it for you.

So far I have had no dropped calls since the update, the service guy seemed to know that this would fix it before the update was applied, so they probably know it's an issue.

Been to the stealer this morning for some adblue and asked about a software update for my vehicle and they said they couldnt tell me there was an update available for mine with out me booking the car in and they would need 4-6 hours to then be able to check.

The service guy then went on to tell me it was the fault of apple updating there software and thats why it wouldnt work

is that 4-6 hours at £115/hour?  Merc C220 estate Sport AMG

That is just his get out statement "it's them not us" because he doesn't have a clue
