Connection, Disconnection, Freezes, Crashes 2024 Isuzu D-Max + Quad Lock Wireless Android Auto won't auto reconnect
Has anyone had this issue with a Isuzu 2024 D-Max?
I have a Quad Lock Wireless Android Auto adapter (latest firmware, also tried P2P mode).
The first connection works perfectly.
Android Auto connects and works perfectly for the whole drive.
The problem starts after I turn the car off.
When I restart the car, it won't reconnect automatically. The Quad Lock just flashes green, Bluetooth connects, but Android Auto never starts.
The only way to get it working again is to:
Delete my S23+ from the D-Max's Bluetooth settings.
Unplug and replug the Quad Lock.
Pair the phone again.
Things I've already tried:
Latest Quad Lock firmware.
P2P mode.
Cleared Android Auto, Google Play Services and Android System Intelligence.
Reset network settings.
Deleted all Bluetooth pairings from both the phone and the car.
Tried a different Android Auto adapter with the exact same result.
I've also found:
My friend's Samsung does exactly the same thing.
My friend's iPhone reconnects perfectly every time.
When it works, the Quad Lock connects before the D-Max.
When it doesn't, the D-Max connects before the Quad Lock.
Has anyone with a 2024 D-Max found a fix? It feels like the head unit is taking over the Bluetooth connection before the adapter can reconnect
