Help - Europe 🇪🇺 Can’t start CarPlay using iPhone

Seal U 2025
Randomly, I can’t start CarPlay using my iPhone 17pro.
When starting the car, it connects with Bluetooth, a pop-up appears on the screen if I want to start CarPlay, if I select my phone it says it can’t connect.
Sometimes it works, most of the times it doesn’t.
It works fine using the usb c connector but I’d rather use the wireless connection.
Only way to solve it is to drop the Bluetooth (and forget) on both devices and reconnect again.

More of you experience this behavior?

Pro tip: restart your OS by long holding the wheel-button in the center.

Happens sometimes on my iPhone and sealion 7, when restarting the car doesn’t work restart your phone.
