I know that the Nexus 5 now supports Bluetooth MAP which enables your car system (I have UVO in mine) to read text messages. I can't get this working however and I'm wondering if the Hangouts SMS integration has somethings to do with it. Does anyone have their N5 transmitting text messages to their audio system in their car?
Enabling SMS in your Car through Bluetooth?

My bluetooth car stereo has the same functionality and i've never been able to get it to read texts or even give me a notification that I have a text message. Its unfortunate. I know it works with iPhone. The other troubling thing is that the voice dialer on the car automatically pulls up the old decrepit "Voice Dialer" when I'd prefer to use Google Now. I wish there was a way to make it use Google Now.
My stereo also uses MAP, but no luck. Are you able to get Google Now instead of voice dialer for voice calling?
I have a DNX and the only phone that has ever worked properly for me has been the atrix

Works perfectly on my Ford focus. Are you sending SMS messages? Or hangouts messages. Might make a difference?
SMS option doesn't enable itself. The deck asks for permission to access phonebook and history but nothing regarding sms.
I have had the dnx for 2 years and used tons of phones with it. The only one that the SMS ever worked on was my atrix2. I didn't check with my iPhone 5s, but maybe I will later tonight. So it doesn't matter what app it was doing the text messaging. I think its just a problem with the dnx and most devices.
I never said it didn't work at all for any device with any car.

Seriously SMS not working over Bluetooth
I also can't get the SMS to work over Bluetooth in my uConnect Jeep. I suspect it has something to do with Google Hangout SMS integration. If anyone figures out a work around please reply, I love the Nexus 5 but no SMS integration over Bluetooth is unacceptable. Time to start considering moving back to my S3.

I have my Nexus 5 paired with Garmin Nuvi 3490 through BT. The Nuvi does successfully show text messages stored on the phone.
Garmin's implementation is extremely crash-prone, and text mesage support sometimes disappears without any explanation, but it is a Garmin's problem. The phone seems to function as it is supposed to, i.e. BT MAP is there and it works.
Works fine in my 2013 Civic. I did not have to do anything special after pairing with Hands Free Link.
I hate to bring up an old thread, but has anyone found a way to get this working? I had a Nokia 925 that I upgraded to 8.1 and it would read texts through my Uvo system in my Optima. Since I went back to the Nexus 5, I don't even see the option for the MAP profile in the bluetooth settings. SMS is enabled on my car audio system.
