The BT streaming works fine. Streaming over the cable while also connected by BT for the phone is the problem scenario.

You can plug into the non iPod USB port and at least charge the phone while using BT streaming.

I finally bought a spare iPhone USB cable and tried it again yesterday. I play special attention that the my iPhone 4 was streaming from the cable and not the Bluetooth (Note: if it's streaming from BT, I could change the column from iPhone; I couldn't if it's from USB). It worked for my whole 20-min journey without problem. I also picked up a phone call in the middle. No issue at all switching back to music automatically, too.

Which iOS version are you on?

iOS 5.0.1 (build 9A405)

That's good to hear but it doesn't work for a lot of people including Land Rover themselves. Just hoping Apple fix it in the next release as lots of other car manufacturers have exactly the same problem.
This might be a solution - A2DP Blocker - an app that disables Bluetooth audio output on your iphone.

I'm going to download and give it a try.

Having just read this Thread I can also confirm no issues with iPhone 4 (iOS 5) swopping from BT to cable etc. I have an iPod Touch connected all the time via cable and on a trip to Belgium and back recently was swopping between phone on BT and iPod without hitch - with cable full control on the car screen and on BT using the iPhone itself.

I swopped the devices over to charge the phone with no issue either.

Curiously, my iPod (still on iOS 4) froze a couple of times when I first got the car 3 weeks ago but hasn't in the last 2 weeks.

I think the issue is where you are trying to play audio via cable and phone via BT from same device (ie iPhone). Using 2 devices should not cause any issues.

Please let us know if this works. Don't have my Evoque yet but would buy app now in case Apple decide to remove!

The app has been available for a long time but they've finally released an IOS 5 compatible version so not expecting Apple to have any issue with it
