Default Connecting Bluetooth while moving..

So my wife and I want to switch the connected phone sometimes while on the road. Before I figured this out I had to pull over and and turn off the car all together to connect a different phone. So I figured out a work around... Go to phone, settings, scroll to the left, click bluetooth, power off, then wait a second and then click power on. it will connect no matter what, even if you are on the highway. I'm not sure if anyone knew this but I thought I'd share.

It's really much easier than that. Just click on "Settings" on the phone screen, then "Connect Phone" and click on the phone you want to connect. This should be available while driving.

One thing I haven't quite figured out is how the vehicle prioritises the bluetooth connections. If there are two paired phones in the car, it doesn't always pair to the first one in the list. My guess is that phone software (i.e. Bluetooth response time) plays a factor, but not sure...

It links to the same phone that was attached last. When my wife and I use her RX on a weekend, it will attach to her phone because it was the last phone attached. If I connect my phone, it will default back to my phone next time we get in the car. When she uses her car alone again, I think she has to reconnect her phone, but I may be wrong. It may default back to her phone if mine isn't in range.
