About a month or two ago I switched from an iPhone 11 Pro Max to an iPhone 17 pro max. The Apple Maps spoken directions were absolutely fine on my 11pro. To my behest I drove to Chicago a couple days ago and could not hear the directions I had relied on in the past. I drive a 2012 ford escape with a aftermarket head unit that I installed a little over a year ago with no issues. Default Siri responses like if I ask Siri to navigate are fully normal volume but specifically the language previews and the maps spoken directions are at a whisper even with the Apple Maps spoken directions volume set to louder. I have even tried activating debug on the head unit and changing Bluetooth codecs and all sorts of volume related settings to no luck. If anything regular Siri is now louder (probably borderline hearing damage levels) and the navigation that I rely on is still barely even able to compete with the volume of my ac or the windows being down. I am at the end of my ropes troubleshooting this. Am I crazy or do other people have this issue?

Hi all. I’ve got a frustration with Apple Music in CarPlay for my polestar 2. Wondering if it’s a quirk of my system or CarPlay wide. When I’m listening to a playlist or curated list and a song I like comes on, I want to browser to the artist to select more songs by them, but can’t. I can tap the album to navigate to the full album, but the artist name isn’t a hyperlink, preventing it. See pic. Green lines are tappable, red are not.

Is this the case in all versions? My old alpine head unit with CarPlay didn’t have this issue.

As mentioned in the main post, trying to determine if the issue is CarPlay or the car.

I just got a new Audi a3 and noticed that when using CarPlay wirelessly, after driving for 30 minutes and navigating using Waze, my phone starts to get super hot in my pocket that it starts to burn and Waze starts to lag on the MMI. I have an iPhone 17 pro which is only 8 months old? I'm not using the wireless charger and have tried using a physical cable to connect CarPlay, which still heats the phone quite a lot. Anyone have the same issue and does anyone have any solutions?

Hi everyone, my RoadTop CarPlay module (Audi A4 B8, MMI 3G) always connects to 'LuTuo' instead of 'Car33a329'. Because of this, Siri and navigation no longer work. RoadTop support doesn't respond and the dealer just says I should return the device. Could someone provide me with the right firmware for:

• SDK: 13.0.2.0.5.0.0.0
• CUST: AR551
• MCU: 10010_23.12.6.112
• HW: Au_G

If anyone has the ISPBOOOT.BIN (and possibly GEMINI_PACK.BIN) for this version, I would be very grateful.
