Grenny infotainment craps the bed

I don't think the Grenadier allows for a wired Car Play connection, does it? Kind of a shame in vehicle with many "older", sensible values.

I definately would like a wired only option.

The cooling thing is something I noticed too. It hasn’t gone into protect mode at least, but heat isn’t good. I don’t have a case on my phone, so I can shove it into the air grate and add some cooling.

I use Waze a fair amount and I haven’t had this issue, but your looks different.

My first thought is that it is having issues sending the resolution? In the Waze app on my iPhone 12(?), under options and under Map Display Map View can be 3D/AUTO/2D. I don’t have issues and mine is set to auto. I wonder if 2D would be more robust?

I live right around there, I know what is exactly on that route… kind of funny.

I have a pretty new iphone and works fine everywhere else. Interesting idea to change the Waze display on map view - will try 2D and see if anything changes.

I often drive home from work and see a Green IG parked, and real close to home, a Magic Mushroom. Might one be yours?

Checking if anyone else had such an issue. Carplay goes all fuzzy on me. Regarless of whether plugged in or not. I can select another app and then switch back and then is fine for a little bit but then reverts. Dealer not solved so am thinking (a) will try the head-unit reset suggested above, and (b) pushing dealer harder (been in 2x). Welcome suggestions! thanks

CarPlay has worked for months, but started to get persnickety the last few days. Trouble connecting and then not connecting at all. then when trying to reconnect, the system hanging and not allowing any input or change the screen. Then, in a busy crowded airport parking lot, as I’m trying to back into a spot, the camera doesn’t show. Then it shows, but it s a picture every 5 seconds. The Aural back up warning works, but is slow- but no indications of ‘where’ in any of the graphics.

Really disappointed. Luckily I knew where I was going, but if were relying on Waze or Maps to navigate, I would have been totally screwed. With my GMC, I could do a full restart at a stop light, but that didn’t work here- even with opening and closing the door.

Parked and left it alone for 30 min. Seems a bit better, but I need to re-connect my phone. Not sure I blame IG for Bluetooth sucking, but the issue leaking into the rear-view camera and warnings is unacceptable.

Really disappointed. This has gone from Quirky to PITA.

Which issue is at hand? Critical rear camera failing or less critical CarPlay reliability problem?

Hm I am confused. The original post talked about the rear camera flaking out, which is a critical safety issue. Camera is native to the car so should work reliably.

Then the thread turned into CarPlay reliability.

I think it morphed from a CarPlay problem to a general issue with the unit. I think it stemmed from not having the car turned off long enough for everything to reset that through the CarPlay into indeterminate state, which I then tried to fix by logging in out of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. When I finally gave up on that, the unit was discombobulated enough that the rearview camera feed didn’t work right.

It’s been a while and it hasn’t reared its head again. The only time was a couple days ago when I had a Bluetooth speaker with me that I think was still connected to my phone and that kind of messed things up for a cycle.

What I meant was - was your rear camera’s operations critically diminished? If so, that’s a recall worthy issue for Ineos
