Car keeps turning on my phones bluetooth against my will

[kryckeley]

I have a 2018 PHEV and an android phone that I connect with a cord. This works fine. However every time I am in my car it turns my phones bluetooth on. If I turn it off it turns it right back on. I don't like this because it then auto pairs with my headphones while they are charging and they are then on and active and so not charging as well. Any advice?

Android Auto has a setting whether to use Bluetooth or not when it is active. If that is on try turning it off.

It'll be your phone's "fault", not your car's. I'd try turning off Bluetooth scanning (go to Settings, Location, Options). I always have both that and WiFi scanning turned off by default.

I have 'forgotten' the car from the phone side. I have turned Bluetooth off on my phone. I have turned off autoconnect in android auto. I have also turned off bluetooth connection on the car side and changed the pairing code in the car in hopes of it not being able to pair. It still automatically turns on my phones bluetooth and pairs every time I get in the car. What the hell?

Did you turn off scanning?
