Also installed CarPlay dongle. I am connected to the head units BT and when I attach the cable to the car play dongle , SIRI is not taking any voice commands. Also making calls while using Car Play, I can hear the other person but no one can hear my voice. Also I hear a static sound when someone calls me. Also Music starts and pauses from Iphone? Did you encounter any of these issues? TIA
Hey Beemer,

Sooooo I had this same exact issue myself and came up with an imperfect solution. If I had bluetooth connected to the Avin unit and the CarPlay adapter connected, it would ALWAYS have audio issues for me. I'm not sure if they have a fix for this and their customer support is absolutely horrible. My solution was to disconnect bluetooth from the Avin unit and just take bluetooth calls over the BMW stock system. Let me know if you come up with a better solution.... It would definitely be nice to have SIRI controls working properly! Maybe we need to get an external mic???

Sorry I can't help too much on this one!
