I am finding that on almost every journey around London and its suburbs, that I get two loud pops and shortly after that I lose phone connectivity. The satnav then stops working too. When I get the software upgrade and am able to use Android Auto, will it use the car's SIM or my phone's? Thanks.

I find often the car loses bluetooth connectivity to my phone, but usually reconnects automatically in a few seconds. I have seen the satnav lose all position and take a good 5-10 minutes to recover. I am on version 0564. Others with version 0783 (2.0) may be able to confirm but I suspect app connect for Car Play and Android Auto will still use the eSIM of the car.
