Problem with Iphone 6 plus.

Hey Guys, just picked up my M4 and I can connect via bluetooth with my IPhone 6+ and make calls but when I chose it for music it doesn't automatically starts play and I have to manually hit play on the iphone itself to start it. The Scroll wheel won't advance the songs on my playlist either. The connection can be via Bluetooth or USB... HELP!

I think it's because your phone is too big.

I had this same problem the other day. Searched online for it but didn't come up with anything too specific. I did forget bluetooth connection on both the car and the phone, then reconnected it. It didn't work perfectly at first, but after about 30 seconds it started working correctly and still is. Hope this helps.

Mine will do it and then start working. Then do it again on another day. Really a pain.

I turne off Bluetooth on both phone and car and removed the devices, turned off my phone all together too. Turned it on, turned on BT on both and reconnected. Now it works...for now.
