I’m also joining the CarPlay gps drift club. M3 manual with 400 miles , just delivered 3 weeks ago. ID 8. Love the car otherwise, but yes, this issue is frustrating . No issues in my other vehicle’s car play.

I picked up my M3 base w/ ID8 ~1.5 weeks ago and had this issue on the drive home from the dealer. I tried the basic troubleshooting steps which provided a temporary fix however I did a hard reset on the head unit a couple of days ago and haven't experienced an issue since. I'll update if it comes back.

Unfortunately the issue returned. According to Waze (and Apple/Google Maps) I have an amphibious vehicle.

It drives me crazy. The weird thing is it NEVER happens on my drive to work. Only on my drive home.

So I think I have a pretty good consistent fix. Go to your wifi settings and click the info icon on the bmw wifi. Turn auto join OFF. Now whenever you get in the car you will have to manually connect to the bmw wifi, but it has worked for me every single time over the last 10 days. Not a perfect solution, but if it works it works. To confirm my findings, I switched back to auto join for a day and immediately had the same issue.
Hope this helps. |

When do you manually connect to the BMW Wifi, after you start the car or before ? not sure if it's a timing issue. |

I connect after I start the car. I was really hoping this would be a good fix. Last edited by fmonteiro444; 03-27-2023 at 12:26 PM.. |

I finally gave up on using the native carplay. I'm using an ai box made for BMW called BW550P from iheylinkit. I happen to find it on aliexpress. It doesn't seem to be on Amazon. For now, until wireless carplay is fixed this is the only thing that works for me.

Temporary fix for Waze
Hi all,
On iOS, in the Waze settings, set Location to Always. Works perfectly for me. |

Took delivery of a new M2 with iDrive 8 Monday and noticed this issue. Strangely it’s fine around my house but doesn’t work around my office, about 12 miles to the south.
Annoying, but it’s helpful to see everything you’ve already tried. It is off the exact same way on Waze, Apple Maps, Google Maps and on the MyBMW app. Last edited by xraymd; 04-13-2023 at 12:33 PM.. |
