iPhone 5 doesn't work with Bluetooth in car

Bluetooth doesn't work with iOS 6 and iPhone 5. I had iPhone 4S with iOS 6 beta working flawlessly, but the release version on the iPhone 5 killed the functionality in my 2012 Lexus. I cannot believe this isn't a huge problem for thousands of users. Are others having the same issues? any solutions?

Hmm. That's odd. Try restoring the phone via DFU mode, since that's the most through of the restores. This is how to enter in it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P9BFanKzCKc

If that doesn't work, I'd call Apple to see for a replacement.

I have an appointment tomorrow at the Apple store. Seems like a replacement is imminent.

0	Did you try re-pairing the car and phone? The mac address may have changes when you updated the phone answered Oct 27 '12 at 17:36 Billtopia 276●1●4
