Carplay automatically selected

When I get in my car, the entertainment unit sometimes automatically switches to carplay and starts playing music. So, I'll hit menu, scroll to the car's SAT radio and play a channel.

No, the car says, and switches back to carplay.

We do this a few more times, back and forth until one of us gives up. Is there a way to stop this...so it just stays where I want it?

I assume the system is connecting with your IPhone. If so, go into the bluetooth settings on your Iphone, Find your car and select the circled i button. Deselect Carplay. It will stop automatically connecting.

Can I still connect though or would I have to go back into settings each time?

I drove home just now and was listening to XM, and my phone said how about amazon music. I switched back to XM, in less than a second it switched back, so I switched back, then it did..rinse and repeat for like five or six times, and then for some unknown reason, it stayed on XM.

Or sometimes, I like using Google Maps, but listening to XM...so i don't want to switch offf my phone completely...just let me choose the audio source.

You will still be able to use carplay, you will just need to manually select it on your headunit. The setting stops it from connecting automatically.

Nope. As of right now. It still switches. It seems to do so less though so maybe there was an update or something i did unknowingly.

it’s a fun problem

FWIW, I just got to play back-and-forth with it today. I'm guessing it was about eight times that it choose carplay....I said "satellite radio"...it said carplay....I said "satellite radio"... And then on the eighth round, it finally just stuck on Sat radio for no apparent reason.
