Can the 2014 Mazda6 Not Play Music via Bluetooth?
2 Answers
Mazda6 with a screen can only make calls after connecting to Bluetooth, and basically cannot play music externally. Below is the relevant introduction: 1. Positioning: The Mazda6 is the latest mid-to-high-end sedan launched by Mazda in Tokyo in 2001, and it even won the title of "King of Corners" for the year. 2. Introduction: This car has a very sporty appearance and interior, strong handling, and outstanding overall performance. It has high-standard safety features. The interior space is spacious, whether it's passenger space or cargo space, it is generally satisfactory, and the craftsmanship is very refined. Since entering the domestic market, the Mazda6 has been more regarded as a sports sedan.
My 2014 Mazda6 has exactly this issue—the Bluetooth only works for calls, playing music is completely impossible. I tried it right after buying the car: once connected to the phone, it only allowed calls, with no audio streaming at all. I checked the manual, and the original car system's Bluetooth protocol was designed for HFP (Hands-Free Profile) only, without support for A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile), so streaming services like Spotify simply don't work. The solution is straightforward: I recommend using an AUX audio cable plugged directly into the car's AUX port—you can buy one for just a few bucks on Taobao. Alternatively, get a Bluetooth receiver that plugs into the cigarette lighter for around a few dozen yuan; the sound quality is decent enough. Since I love listening to music while driving, these methods save both money and hassle—no need to mess with the original car system.
