You may need to delete one of your devices as it appears iDrive doesn't handle multiple devices properly. It may be worth some testing to verify.
As I said, for the first 6 days my wife's iPhone was not paired to the car at all, and when she drove with me her Bluetooth and Wifi were turned off. It's not related to two iPhone's. I flew completely solo for the first 6 days of ownership.

Forgetting the CarPlay for a moment, what are your thoughts on dual-key setup....is the car supposed to recognize the iPhone each key is sync'd to?

Also, if the functionality for his and hers keyfobs is supposed to be immediate connection to my fob (when I enter the car and her phone is not around) and immediate connection to her fob (when she enters the car and my phone is not around) that's not happening either, it's like we have to go into iDrive settings and tap the one of the two iPhones we want to pair for that ride. Is that the normal behavior? I thought the keyfob's were supposed to allow that functionality.
