Here is the TSB detailing how to update K5 software so apple connects wirelessly without disconnecting so we can properly use apple car play. Seems to work without visiting the dealership for the update.

This works on all the trims?
Apparently it does if the car's software requires the update.
i'm guessing it's different for canadian models?
Is this strictly for Apple? I picked up my K5 last night and my Android Auto kept disconnecting.
Where can I see if I have the latest version?

John,
Thanks man for this information. I completed the instructions on the TSB and installed. Also updated my iPhone to latest release and all is working well. In addition, on my phone wifi settings for the vehicle I turned off the low data setting.
Much appreciated,
Dwight

was this for wireless Apple Car Play or Car Play when using the USB source in the K5?

Did you read any of the prior comments or the actual TSB?
Where can I see if I have the latest version?
using the general settings on the radio, also note that the linked in the TSB appear to be "USA" versions, and our K5s have a "CAN" version of the software, no idea what differences if any. Apologies for the delay, only recently actually received the car.
What is the current version supposed to be at?
The update file is now saying it is password protected. Anybody happen to know the password?

You should be able to skip that. When I downloaded it I did not enter anything and it let me continue.
2021 K5:
Apple Car Play and Navigation has anyone downloaded the latest version as given to me by the geniuses at KIA/UVO?
I was sent an email from: MnSOFT Inc. ([email protected]). It is supposed to fix Apple Car play & Navigation issues.

i updated my software

Thank you for the software link update. I updated my software as instructed. It worked fine for a couple of days but as of this morning, it started dropping connection again. Any suggestions. I've tried removing and rejoining the Bluetooth connection. reset network setting on my iPhone Xr and my iPhone 11.
Sometimes it's hit or miss situation.
