Marshmallow killed my car connection

[kadmanMusic]

Anyone have any issues connecting to their car's Bluetooth after the update? I know it's not Bluetooth as a whole because I'm still connected to my Zenwatch. But when I look at my settings in the car, it says "Bluetooth connected (no phone)"

Any ideas?

You may have to re-do the connection for your car, as in, delete the device from the car settings and also "forget" the bluetooth connection in your phones bluetooth settings and then re-pair it with your car. If that doesn't work then I am not sure. My car connection still works (Sync) after the update.

I agree entirely - once in a while when bluetooth connections get problematic, deleting the entry from both devices, and re-pairing, has solved pretty much every BT issue I've had.

Since the update, I find bluetooth working extremely well with 4 different cars over the past week: 2 at home, and 2 different rentals. Between them - that's a Jeep Grand Cherokee, a Hyundai Sonata, a Chrysler 300C and a Cadillac XT5 - bluetooth has been great: easy to pair, full interactivity and information display, fast and responsive. No problems.

I'd try dropping and re-adding the connection.

Thanks, All. Will try that next time I'm in the car.
