    Hi All,

    I have both my wife's iPhone and my iPhone paired with the car's Bluetooth.

    Does anyone know how to set the car to always connect to my phone, if both are in the car. i.e set a priority for the car to prefer mine over hers?

    I only want hers to connect when she is alone in the car

    Thanks in advacne

    no such luck im afraid.

    The phone prep tries to connect to the last used phone first, and then other paired devices.

    Not sure you can do that as such. I think the car will just pair with the last phone it saw - or the one it sees first.

    I think you can choose which phone to use from a list if you have the Phone prep. high (I believe it's because you pair from the car to the phone in high rather than from the phone to the car in low) but that still requires you to choose in the MMI after getting in.


    Then again, I could be talking rubbish!

    Your safest bet is to just have BT switched on on the phone you want to use even though it's a pain.

    I find this annoying as even when both myself and wife get in the car at the same time it always seems to find hers!! Does not appear to care about the last phone paired!
