Hey jk70,
If the suggestions above don't resolve the text issues, try performing a module reset and pair the phone back with a clean connection. To reset the module: Select radio > Hold the power button (center of the volume ****) + the right-seek button at the same time for up to 5 seconds. Keep me posted!

This is where the problems is: I can't do that but according to the manual I should be able to.
I am guessing I have some setting incorrect but can't figure out if or which one that is

Yea, it's an issue with how Apple sets up the Bluetooth chip in iPhones. It's much better than it used to be. Before the last MFT update you had to use the button on your phone to bring up Siri.
