Easiest stuff first, did you have an earlier iPhone and are you familiar with the Settings/Bluetooth/pairing procedure?
When did you last turn the iPhone 8 completely off and back on? Is the LS running but not moving?
Be glad you did not get the "X"!

My iPhone X mates with my non ML nav factory dash unit. I tried to download the phones contacts and while it said it was transferring I stopped it after 5 minutes or so. Nothing happened. How long should it take?

Any body have any idea how to transfer the phone book

seems we have to enter each number separately into the dash unit
