Bluetooth Iphone 6 2007 350gt

I am struggling to get my iphone to play music through the bluetooth. I have both car and phone paired.

I have had the car play music for two seconds then it stops. Any ideas?

I presume you are using the factory stereo?

My understanding is that newer iphones use a different version of Bluetooth and that the Skyline's stereo is not compatible. It may be able to pick up your phone, but is unable to effectively communicate with it.

I seem to remember an importer telling me this when I was looking at V36 sedans.

I picks it up. Everytime I turn the car on it will play music for one second then stop.

I'll put it to you like this: Install an old Windows XP game on your computer. Your computer can read the disc, install the files etc. The icon will even show up on the desktop. You play the game- it will get to a point- you may watch the intro movie for example. But the game will not play, or it will crash early on.

You are not using early generation Bluetooth software. Your phone is using Bluetooth drivers that may be incompatible with many older devices. The original iPhone came out in 08 and would not be expected to work on later model devices, and vice versa.

Apple is very picky with compatibility too.

Maybe test out an older phone, or try using a friends android or windows phone

This has been covered so many times. Please use the search function or go through the threads here. I have tried iPhones 4-6 and they all work no issues whatsoever.

In summary, firstly you need to pair your phone with the car's bluetooth, you then need to go to audio settings and turn on playback for bluetooth again.
