Random CarPlay issues

Anyone with a newer iPhone see any issues with CarPlay being a bit flaky recently?

The scroll wheel indicator on a selection seems to always be active now, even if you're using the touch screen, and the HUD scroll list for playlist disappears and reloads itself after a few seconds every time the song changes, whether you picked one or not.

These may seem like small issues, but they're actually quite annoying to me.

I recently took the car in for service and they informed me there was a programming upgrade for the DSC. I think this turned out to be an actual iDrive upgrade, although I was already on 7/2021. Perhaps a minor point release.

Usability is a net negative and obviously they can't put anything back, just wondering if me going to BMW is going to get anywhere.

Random weirdness, including the reloading of a playlist, song starts for 8 seconds and then starts again, Maps unable to find me. I installed 15.0.2 last night and at least for the short time I drove it had no issues.

15.0.2 update to iOS fixes most (if not all) the strange Carplay issues people have been having lately.

As a user of CarPlay since it originally came out years ago, expect odd bugs every now and then. Everything and in between, expect it. Totally normal and eventually resolves itself.

Reviving this because it's still an issue for me, but I'm on 15.1.1 now even and no change.

This all started after the .48 update I received from the dealer when I took it in for service in sept. I see there's a .50 update now, hopefully it'll hit my car soon and it may resolve these issues.

Have you tried a different phone to confirm if the issue doesn't involve your phone specifically? Have you totally re-paired the device?
