Contacts from phone

I've tried but can't figure out how to transfer my contacts from my iPhone to the car's contacts for navigation. The car is setup with apple car play and it seems it won't allow them to be transferred. Has anyone had any success with this? Cheers

Just read in the manual that "the phone book entries are not transferred into the vehicle" when the iPhone is connected via CarPlay

I don't use CarPlay, and my contacts have to be temporarily uploaded into the display each time I start the car. I don't believe that contacts are permanently uploaded into the car's memory under either multimedia scenario.

I turned off my apple car play and all my contacts from my phone showed up under my contacts in my car, but as soon as I turn apple car play back on, it eliminated all my contacts in my car and forces me to us my contact via my phone ...
