9.3 fixes your problems there is an issue but can't remember what is is they are working right away to update with fix. I have 16 SS and that fixed my 9.2 problems my 16 Z06 is not here yet but my 15 z51 had problems after 9.2 update.

9.3 fixed the BT issues on my 2016. It was Apple, not Chevy, after all.

Yes it is the same model. We have an appointment with the Apple Store to either fix or get the new one that comes out Wendsday the same size as our 5's. May go to a 6s instead.

It was Apples 9.2 that fouled everything up. 9.3 is the fix.

Yes. I like the 4 inch iPhone too. For what I do with it, like run, ride bicycles and things like that the more compact size suits me. The iPhone for my wife is a replacement for her computer, so the larger display is perfect for her. But the battery life on the larger 6s is quite a bit better.

Very true. They just halted the download and are working on a fix for the older versions. Seems it asked for the original password and login and many people with older versions do not remember it...
A fix should be available in a few days....

As folks above said, upgrade to 9.3 cured the issue.

As stated above. Did Factory restore, 9.3 OS unpair and repair. It did fix the source issue.

When I had an iPhone I had the same problem in multiple cars. I don't think it has anything to do with GM. Since switching to Android phones, I never had a problem. I used BT over most of my first 5k miles and never had an issue.

Good luck but I don't think GM can fix this.

I thought 9.3 had cured the switching problem with my iPhone 6. Yesterday while driving and having the phone connected by BT, the car switched from my iPod which was plugged in and started playing music off my phone. Every time this happens it then fails to recognize my iPod until I unplug and plug it in again. Very frustrating.

Took The Corvette in for the A8 update and they gave me a 2015 Chevrolet Equinox SUV and my Iphone Blue Tooth works as intended with it. Different software.

There is a service bulletin 16-NA-042 I have not read it has anybody else?
