New CT4S owner here and also annoyed by this issue. It makes the first few moments of every drive a chore, rather than a pleasure.

As a work around, I ended up turning off the "auto join" setting for the Taycan wifi network on my iPhone. At least this keeps the PCM from switching to Car Play every time I get in the car. The downside, is I have to manually activate the wifi on my phone when I really do want to use Apple Car Play.

I tried this workaround, and it successfully stops carplay starting automatically, but I can't seem to get carplay working manually by joining either of the car's wifi networks. Trying to tap the carplay icon next to my device in PCM doesn't help.

Any tips on how you "manually activate the wifi on my phone"?

Finally found the simplest fix workaround: go to Settings -> Devices, then tap the Carplay icon to turn off carplay. The car then reverts to plain bluetooth for phone calls/media and remembers this setting and no longer automatically reconnects carplay next drive.

This is not a “fix” if one wants to have CarPlay still engaged for everything else available on CarPlay like text messages, Waze app, etc.

Correct, it is more of a workaround. I'm already missing the message notifications and Waze alerts...

Has anyone seen what other car OEMs do in their vehicles? In my pickup it actually does the same thing!

In my Kia, plugging my phone in brings up Apple Carplay (and opens Waze), but it doesn't interrupt the digital radio I'm usually listening to.
