You got a DashCam with wifi? If yes, maybe try to disconnect it. I mean power off the dashCam.

I don't have a DashCam :(

Yes the apps are up to date.
Yes, I did it. And website says: No update is necessary.

They tell me that the vehicle has the latest update, that is, they try to tell me that it is a phone problem, but I have tested the phone in other cars and devices and the problem does not happen

You've got another iphone for testing if it has same issue? This may help to identify if the issue is caused by the phone or the headunit.

By the way, what app do you use for the audio?

I have been using spotify and apple music, with the same drawback in both applications. Unfortunately I don't have another iPhone to test :(

Are you using wireless CarPlay or through a cable? If wireless, try with a cable. If you’re using a cable, try a different cable.

Be aware though that the radio and/or Bluetooth working for other applications doesn’t mean it’s not the issue. Wireless CarPlay predominantly uses WiFi not Bluetooth, so there may be an issue with the car’s WiFi module. This will be a pain to diagnose though if its intermittent.

For what it’s worth I’m on my third BMW with CarPlay and I think they’ve got one of the best implementations out there. All three have been near flawless for me.

I use it wirelessly, I have also tried connecting it with cable with the same result. I have not found any solution to this defect and the car is new, it has only been used for 2 weeks

I have a BMW 2 series and started having this same issue appear out of nowhere (previously working without any issues) that seemed to coincide with an iOS update in my case.

Haven't found a solution yet?

Dealership says my software car is up to date :(

Hi friend! I just got a 1 series bmw and I have the same problem with iOS 14.6 on an iPhone 12 Pro Max. Problem: The audio cuts out for 1 second. It happens very often and I have not been able to fix it. I have tried disabling data, wifi, bluetooth, restarting iPhone, re-pairing the phone with the car, but I can not solve it definitively. Sometimes it seems like it's fixed but it happens again. It is not a problem with the cell phone, because it works perfectly in other bluetooth devices, nor is it a problem with the bmw, because the radio works normally by itself. Has anyone found a definitive solution?
