2018 Lexus NX300h and car play

Hello!

I have a 2018 Lexus NX300h and have had success with CarPlay in the past, especially with my old iPhone 14 Pro Max via a USB cable. I now have the 16 pro max and it worked fine for a bit, but now when I connect the phone it will connect to the car, then drop out, then connect again, then drop out. It’ll do that a few times until it just doesn’t connect at all. Sometimes other phones (same name and model) will work with it just fine, and other times it’ll do the same thing.

I replaced the usb and audio ports in the car thinking that was the issue, but it was not.

Anyone have any clue what I can do to get this functioning again?

Thanks!
