When I picked up my car yesterday I paired my nexus 6p to it. No problem. To use Android auto I disabled Bluetooth and plugged the cable in. All worked for 24 hours.

Suddenly today the phone or the car keeps interrupting android auto and connecting Bluetooth. Even if I shut Bluetooth off on my phone it does not help. Suddenly Bluetooth gets reactivated and connected. I even "forgot" my profile and deleted it from the car. It then simply reconnects and says it's trying to pair.

Anyone seen this? What's going on here?

Phone: nexus 6p
Car: 2018 S5 Sportback

Not sure if that's gonna help, but you don't need to manually disable Bluetooth when connecting to Android Auto. The MMI automatically disables Bluetooth while in AA or CarPlay mode. Perhaps it got confused, because you manually disabled it.

My sales guy specifically told me to disconnect bluetooth to use android auto in his "tour" of the car.

Just tried it and that seems to have solved it although weird it just started today.

Thanks!

Most sales guys know close to nothing about the merchandise they sell. Especially as cars get more packed with technology. I'm an engineer and have worked with lots of sales guys. I can't look at the customer with a straight face while a sales guy is talking ;-).

Glad it's working for you now.
