iPhone 15 pro wireless CarPlay not connecting

I have a 2019 BMW X5. CarPlay works fine on my 14. I got the 15, and CarPlay won’t work. USB music works, Bluetooth works. When I select CarPlay - it doesn’t connect.

I noticed the iPhone won’t also connect to the wifi of the car - maybe that’s the issue !

anyhow , can’t get CarPlay to work. Super frustrating

iPhone 15 Pro Max, iOS 17

CarPlay won't connect via wireless I bought a new iPhone 16 pro and it will not connect wireless to CarPlay . It works fine when I use a cord. My phone prompts me to connect to CarPlay and so does my screen on my car (2024 Macan Porsche). The CarPlay Icon shows up on my car's screen but once I hit "accept" on my car screen the icon disappears. My husband has the same phone and his connects with no problem. I have done all the things: Siri is on, wifi is on, bluetooth on. I have unpaired and repaired. Shut down etc with no luck. Checked my CarPlay settings also.

iPhone 15 Pro CarPlay Okay I just got a brand new IPhone 15 Pro , and I have a 2022 Chevy Tahoe. My iPhone 12 would connect to CarPlay and worked 99.5% of the time wireless CarPlay and also with a cord plug in. Fast forward I just got a iPhone 15 pro and it will not connect to Bluetooth or CarPlay at all. I used the brand new cord that came with the iPhone and nothing will happen.
