  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I have a 2012 Sedan 4.6 with the Tech Package. Recently the car will not automatically pair with my phone (Samsung Note 8). This is something new as I have to manually pair my phone with the car each time I get in to drive.

Any ideas?
 
Did you have any updates on your phone recently?

This happened with my LG V30 after previous update. It stopped pairing with my Panasonic home phone unit and with Genesis. I had to go to Bluetooth settings on the phone, turn it on and off several times, rebooted the phone several times. It works now with Genesis and Panasonic.
 
Have had a couple of phone updates. Didn't want them, but couldn't stop them. Will give your fix a try.
Thanks!!!!

Had a little trouble the first time I tried pairing my GS9. Here's what worked for me.
1. Delete all pairings from the car.
2. Delete any pairings for the car that are on the phone.
3. Re-pair.
4. Once you have the pairing set in the car, edit it in the car and check the box for Auto-Reconnect.

Once I did this, it has worked flawlessly.
