I haven't driven for a few years but my iPhone 4 always used to connect and work with my Peugeot 307 perfectly.

  Everyone in this thread who is complaining has either a Lexus or a Toyota (who owns Lexus) so it’s obviously a problem with some version of their infotainment system. The U2 thing was obviously an Apple issue. Not sure why they don’t use CarPlay but maybe some people prefer Bluetooth.

    I think CarPlay (both wired and wireless versions) requires Bluetooth.

      I’ve never used a wireless version of CarPlay, I always plugged it in which worked reliably in every modern budget car I’ve rented (Toyota included).

    I was in a Volkswagen rental last week and the Carplay integration was a disaster. 50% of the time, attempting to play a song on spotify would crash Carplay. It would refuse to work again (or hey, crash again) until you'd left the car off for a lengthy amount of time. Presumably the car turns off the infotainment system at some point, so this is a reboot, but there was no way to reboot manually... So it would remain broken for the drive. Seems like manufacturers aren't integrating particularly robust systems on the average

      I've owned a VW for 6 years and Carplay has always worked flawlessly.
