Have you allowed Sync to access contacts etc to download?

Also can check in Bluetooth on the phone those items are also allowed
Think there’s a menu on phone section in sync you can choose what’s displayed, not sure exactly where off top of my head

I had a nightmare trying to get contacts and stuff including texts to download and access
Though I now use car play now most of the time

I have finally cracked it.

Numbers in phone address book were saved as international i.e. 00 44 XXXXXXXXXXX

Removed international pre-fix and all ok

Good job. :)

The 00 stands for a + so 00 44 same as +44. So i guess it won't interpret the name to the number with the "00".
I have a lot of numbers with the international prefix, but with the + and it works fine.

Just came to think of it IF you have some number abroad (other country or prefix) and want it to work you can try that trick.
