Carplay not working

Hi guys, I have G30 540ix with the carplay option. I'm in Europe and the car was originally in Canada - long story . The car has carplay option from factory.

When I try to connect the carplay, it just doesnt work. I go to new devices -> carplay. On iPhone I have siri, wifi and bluetooth enabled and when I click on carplay, the car is visible. I click on connect it and it loads. After a like 30secs, the screen on idrive goes back one menu and the screen on my phone keeps loading forever ://.

Any ideas? I can make a video if that would help.

Thanks a ton!!!

Delete all phones from the car and unpair car from the phone. Connect to new device choose carplay option in the car and find bluetooth connection on your phone.

Tried it again and doesn't work :/. I deleted all devices, enabled Bluetooth, Siri and WiFi on my phone, found the menu in car to connect CarPlay, then went to my general CarPlay on phone. I see the car, but when I click on it on phone it does this turning circle of a bit and then the circle disappears and nothing happens . Tried like 10x. Any other ideas??
