Had my MG3 10 days now and it's great.
I'm trying to get to grips with Carplay (which I've never had before, except on a couple of rental cars when I didn't try making phone calls with it) and my iPhone 11.
It connects ok (with a cable) and I can make and receive phone calls. But whilst I can hear the other person through the car speakers, they can't hear me at all. If I disconnect Carplay (by pulling the plug) they can hear me OK through the phone obviously, but as soon as I reconnect the cable they can't. It seems as if the mic on the car isn't functioning with the phone, though Siri does hear me when Carplay is connected.
I know Bluetooth isn't used for Carplay connection but I've tried this with Bluetooth on and off just in case, but it makes no difference.
Any ideas what's going on? Thanks.
