iPhone 6s won't reconnect to car bluetooth


this has been such incredibly frustrating problem. have 2012 subaru impreza. iphone 5s connected no problem. new iphone 6s, can connect fine, turn car off, connection doesn't work anymore when turn car on. have manually select iphone 6s in car, @ point works again until turn car off. same thing happens if toggle bluetooth off/on on phone while leaving car running.

iphone can see car bluetooth, when try select phone, says can't connect.

know there issues pairing ios 8, never experienced these on 5s. i've tried every fix mentioned - forgetting car bluetooth, deleting iphone car system , re-pairing, restarting phone. haven't tried forgetting networks, because serious pain (so many wi-fi logins) , if guaranteed success, seems unlikely.

way find out if problem phone or car? tend think phone, since other phones can connect, knows. maybe issue older bluetooth/newer bluetooth.

1 problem?

figured out own problem, post here in case else searches did , couldn't find answer.

reason, on subaru's, system considers bluetooth players , phones connecting via bluetooth different entities. way setup phone pairing not through dashboard, through steering wheel controls. press "off hook" button, use controls select "pair phone". works peachy.
