IPhone contacts not staying synced with iDrive 7

Anyone having problem with iDrive retaining previously synced contacts from iPhone?
Any solutions or suggestions?
Thanks,

My issue is that every now and then the iPhone doesn't connect with the car. If I reboot phone or delete Bluetooth profile either on car or on phone, it works again.

CarPlay or BT?

I use CarPlay as primary, but either way, even if I use iDrive I see no phone connected and the car trying to establish connection every 30 secs or so.

With my issue, it's iDrive, not CarPlay.
Don't know if it's the phone or a fault in iDrive, but it's frustrating to have to re-pair phone to car each morning just to make a call.
