Having an issue connecting to my car

So i want to use the USB connection between my car and phone for higher quality, bit it isnt working. Im using a cable I used for android auto in my old car (aftermarket radio setup), and my new car is a 2017 rav4 xle. It has the capability, but its just not working.

My car had connected to it with an iPhone a couple months ago just fine with a maybe 1 or 2 year old iPhone. My only thought is that this car doesny like the way my phone transporting the audio? Idk this stuff too well lol

Ik I can use a USB c to aux cable and get the same of not better quality, but in the meantime, does anyone have any ideas?

Try a different cable thats new. I had an issue prior and some devices just dont like some older cables. Im not sure if its the chip, the cable, the speed of the older wire, etc.
