This won't help OP, but I have to say they did figure out the old version (2.5) of MyLink by the last model year they used it (2018), infotainment in general and bluetooth in particular is perfect in my car. No pairing issues, fast initial connection, flawless operation, no interference with Android Auto even in wireless mode through my 3rd party dongle, I can switch to the radio and back to AA seamlessly and channels/playbakc state etc. just follows my input, the unit does exactly what the user expects every single time.

GM having discontinued the Camaro is unfortunate for this reason, too, I'm sure they would've ironed out all the bugs in the 3.0 infotainment by 2026 or 2027. I know this may sound jaded or passive-aggressive, but given how long it took them to make 2.5 work well, it's at least realistic.


(Being a software engineer for decades, it is absolutely astounding to see such instability linger for so long in such a relatively simple system, by the way.)
