Others with similar issues? I would love to figure this out before a six hour Thanksgiving drive.
No matter what version of the software you have CarPlay sucks. Mine works maybe 2 out of 10 times. Either cannot find the phone or when it finds says it cannot connect. Pure garbage. I mentioned before that my son’s Honda connects it immediately 100% of the times. The X7 is a great car but the BMW software is garbage.
