    Since upgrading to iPhone 5 I've started having problems with my Bluetooth connection. I use if to play music from my phone. It was working fine with iPhone4. Now, occasionally it doesn't connect automatically. I sometime have to tell it to connect then set my phone to scan.

    A second problem is that occasionally the sound starts cutting out. Almost seems like a cd skipping.

    I don't know if this has anything to do with Prius but I'm wondering if I need a firmware upgrade or something?

    Well yes, reestablishing the connection usually works. My question is whether I need some firmware upgrade to stop this from happening with the iPhone 5 as it worked fine with iPhone 4.

    Untested by me. I gave a 4S model. I'm about to upgrade to the 5S

    happens all the time on my old Prius. you need to restart Prius or somehow reset the bluetooth system of Prius. reboot the phone or reconnect won't help.
