I’m wondering if anyone else has seen this? When I drive in certain areas, my iPhone will disconnect from wireless CarPlay for ~30 seconds. I’m guessing there’s some sort of interference, but I’ve not seen this behavior in other cars.

This is in my 2023 G80 M3.

    It happens with mine in only one spot on the highway. Best I can guess is it’s a data dead zone or the ramp meters interfere.

      Well, on one hand, I’m glad I’m not the only one that has the issue. On the other hand, that means there’s an actual issue with the car.

      Mine occurs on a light business road in the middle of a residential area.

      On longer trips, I see the issue to varying degrees. In some cases, it will disconnect, drop to ConnectedDrive, then reconnect. I’ve also seen it where the entire CarPlay portion of the screen goes black and just won’t come back. I’ve had to reboot my phone to recover.

      Have you seen this behavior?
