Hello,

Are you able to add the iphone to the Evo and use it as bluetooth ?
If yes, try to remove it from idrive system, and connect it back.
Enable Carplay at iphone side, and give it a new try.

The vehicle needs a WiFi antenna , it isn’t equipped with one

If you already did add one , do what @Alec01 said

So you're saying if the vehicle is not equipped with WiFi antenna it will not work?

It may or may not work properly without a WiFi antenna. Obviously, it's better to have one.
OEM WiFi antenna (part number: 61116816435) costs around 50$. Else you can buy a non OEM one for around 10$.
But as said previously, you need to make sure first that the iphone connects correctly to the EVO, before trying Carplay.

Check with ista the error codes.

If you have wifi areal antenna error in memory... do you need to add the wifi antenna.
