Hi Everyone,

Firstly I hope I've posted this in the right sub-forum, I recently acquired a nice Cupra 290 and I am over the moon with it.

I've made the switch from a 520D Xdrive M Sport Plus with all the bells and whistles, as the hot-hatch menace in me wanted to get something quick again before we're forced to go hyrbid :):).

In all of my recent cars 520D, TTS, S3 I've had Apple Car Play, I don't know why but I love it! So long story short, I needed it to be activated on the Cupra 290 and the garage done that for free as part of the trade in.

Now with full-link Apple Car Play I need to use the cable every-time to sync up as it was wireless in the Bimmer, but I can live with that.

But I've now noticed something with calls on my phone. If I am ringing someone, or someone rings me there aint no sound!

Nada not a peep.....so I began investigating and then I noticed while apple car play works a treat, there is no bluetooth (or mobile phone option) in the damn menu.

So Apple Car Play works, but I cannot connect the phone via bluetooth?

Has anyone seen this ?

It's a 2019 Cupra 290 (copper badged)

Any assistance/guidance provided would be greatly appreciated.
