I am currently using Iphone 14 Pro for last 2 years and after 18.2 ios update- Car play stopped working as well as i can notice considerable batetry drain. What the resolution?
[Re-Titled by Moderator]
iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 18
got the same problem after installing 18.2. after trying everything possible with phone settings, found an unreleased thread with some suggestions and turning off VPN among them.. i use ProtonVPN which stays on all the time, and as soon as i turned it off CarPlay connected just fine!
i turned VPN back on and CarPlay stayed connected, HOWEVER.. Siri stopped responding to any requests, whether it's music, directions or anything for that matter..
which raises interesting Privacy Question: what is it that CarPlay is now trying to ping in 18.2 upgrade that Proton VPN blocks (mine blocks all trackers and ads)... 🤔🤔🤔
let me know if you find it helpful!
Cheers and happy holidays!

I dont use VPN so it does not seems to be issue.
I recently connected to a new car on which thew ar play works but my old car Ford with Sync 3 it does not work.
Apple is getting messier day by day!!!!!
I also have a ford sync 3 and CarPlay worked great Friday, upgraded Friday night, got in the car Saturday and would not even show CarPlay as an option I’ve tried everything for 2 days now and nothing.

The VPN was the issue for me also after IOS18.2
The same here. It’s the VPN application that blocks Apple Carplay. Just pause it to connect. Then you can activate VPN again.
I got the same problem after updating my 15 pro max to 18.2 i do not use a VPN, carplay stopped functioning on my Chevrolet 2024 1500
