Android Auto constantly disconnecting - Any fix yet?

[RyanGphoto]

So I have read numerous threads of people (on here and elsewhere) that Android Auto keeps disconnecting with no fixes.. This happens probably 10+ times for me on a 45 minute drive and I have to open spotify hit the play button, then tap the Android Auto icon on the infotainment 4-5 times and then it restarts..

Anyone know of a fix for this yet? Anyone get an update from the dealership that helped?

I am using a S23 Ultra with the latest updates.

Thanks

I think the issue is really down to other radio signal interference. You probably notice that it always disconnects in the same place with some regularity.

I can think of at least 3 intersections that if I stop or don't just breeze through, I will get some kind of interruption. One of those is a car dealership.

Likely this is bad signal/emf management by the business, but it's not like you'll get the FCC down to fine/fix it. If the lotus info system is using a specific radio trans-receiver and that's the issue, software stands little chance of fixing it.

You may find this is an Android Auto issue, not an Emira one.
Reading a number of news articles about AA, the issue is quite widespread with numerous people complaining about the issue.
Google are allegedly working on a fix, but they have been saying that for some time and the last release was supposed to have fixed it, but obviously didnt.
To confirm if Tomwa's observations are correct, try it wired and see if the issue persists
If I can find one of the articles, I'll post it here
