When I start a conversation, the back and forth conversation is normal. No delay from either side. But after a while about a 3-5 second delay of the audio starts and either party on the call starts talking over each other. Any ideas why this is happening? I've had my 2021 X3 since 12/2020 and this just started last year. I've had my phone for 3 years. I've forgotten my phone and re-paired it but it doesn't seem to help.

I had an issue with my 2022 X3 40i few months ago with the same dilemma like you. I took it to the dealer and they did some “reset” on the infotainment unit and it’s working fine since.

Try to factory reset your car head unit, pair the phone through CarPlay again and see if it works

Disconnect and delete the phone from your car. Delete the pairing from your iPhone.

Then re-initialise and re-pair both, you should find it all works as it should. It did on mine and I have a similar setup.
