Default Mobile Assistant / Siri Eyes Free Question

Picked up my 2015 IS 250 F-Sport this weekend! Love it so far. Decided on Nebula Gray Pearl with Rioja Red interior, with all the bells and whistles. Couldn't be happier with her and have loved every mile of the 225 on her so far.

Question for all of you with the 2015s out there. I have the iPhone 6, and cannot seem to get the Mobile Assistant/Siri Eyes Free to work. The bluetooth works fine and I can use it via the regular commands, but when then I try to do the mobile assistant (hold the phone off hook button), it sits at the screen for a few seconds and then the bluetooth signal will disconnect and reconnect a few seconds later. Tried to reboot the phone, disconnect and reconnect bluetooth ... nothing seems to work.

Any of you have an input? Maybe it doesn't work on the 6 yet? I tried the Lexus help line and they were no help. Thanks in advance!

I read an article that the iPhone 6 has been having connectivity issues w/ all sorts of different car manufactures and Bluetooth functions. I have a 5c (and almost went to pickup a 6) but read about the issues and stuck w/ the 5. I have used the Siri function a few times now with no problems. So I'm thinking it may be one of the connectivity issues I've heard about. I'm sure apple will be patching it sooner or later. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

I have 350 rx and iPhone 6 mobie assistant worked till apple did update and now it doesn't work. Both of my daughters have iPhones one 6 and one 5 and they both work perfectly in my car: however mine does not, I have restore phone and done everything possible but still not working. Too bad it was a nice feature.
