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!

Having a random interference problem with CarPlay on 18.3.1 and my 2021 Silverado. Doesn’t matter if it’s wired or wireless. Wireless is worse and will give me a WiFi interference error. On wired it will have interference like a scratched CD used to do. I use a VPN but it’s not on when this occurs. My wireless CarPlay worked fine without problem until a few weeks ago. So it’s probably something to do with the 18 iOS.

11 Ways to Fix It When Apple CarPlay is Not Working
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.
This is exactly what happened with my Ford CMax, every time I get outfitted the car I have to take 10 minutes to reconnect 😡 fix it APPLE
Hi, anyone has tried 18.3.1?
Hope fix this issue...
Still does not solves the problem. Looks like apple has stopped supporting CarPlay on older series like Ford Sync3
Apple use a upgrade to push me buy a new car...
Someone had test this procedure and has successfully?
Not working on 2018 escape sync 3
Hope ios 18.4 fix this issue
Have the same issue with Proton VPN on and iOS 18.4
CarPlay should work without issues even if a VPN is on (I can connect to my HomePods also without issues when Proton VPN is on)
CarPlay stopped working after iOS 18.2
