Google Maps BT stopped working

Hi All,

I have a 2014 GLK350 and normally when I use Google Maps it just starts streaming the BT audio turn by turn without me having to do anything. The phone is paired and calls and music are both working on over BT. The Google Maps app however is no longer streaming audio. Is anyone else having this problem? It started about 2 months ago but I haven't changed anything on my iPhone 6+ since it stopped working. Is anyone else having this problem? Looking forward to fixing this. Thanks!

I remember that when I have Waze on my i-phone 6 screen it streams to the audio system but when the screen is not activated Waze messages go to the phone speakers not to the car audio.

I can't promise - but there is no downside to deleting both your current Phone BT and current Audio BT from your MB system - then resync both

Thanks for the replies. The problem turned out to be with the app settings rather than the pairing/system itself. There is a setting you can access when in navigation mode that says "Play as Bluetooth Phone Call". This makes it so Google Maps will play the turn by turn no matter what source you're listening to. Somehow this got turned off. Sorry for posting the question here when it turned out to have nothing to do with the car. Thanks again!
