Hi all,

after the 9.3. Update i can not use the handsfree talking function of my car (brand new VW Golf 7). I can pair my phone, i can stream music, but when calling up siri or trying to use dictation the phone will not establish a call to the car and i can not talk anything into the phone.

Anybody else having problems here?

Is Siri paired with your car? I may not be using the right words to describe it, but when you activate Siri, touch the bottom right of the screen. Sometimes it takes a few touches to find the right spot. It should show a very small Bluetooth icon in the bottom right of the screen. Click it, and then choose your audio (in this case your car).

If that doesn't work, you may want to unpair your iPhone, delete your iPhone in your car's Bluetooth list, restart the iPhone, and then pair again.

i did repair and i also know the small connection icon that lets me chose the audio input method but the car-bt is already chosen there. really seems like a bug. nobody here with a recent VW?
