I am using CarPlay. I have an iPhone XS with all available patches applied. I too have witnessed bizarre behaviors including wrong name disolay, and I can’t really say what the music issue is because I just went back to Satellite during my short ride to work

I can say that the overheating thing is real. Takes a minute or two and it’s toasty.

ApplePay problem also very real.

No shortcuts allowed using radio buttons and no relationship definitions for hello BMW are sadly missing.

There’s Bluetooth audio lag as well. I occasionally play a tv show that I just want to listen to using xfinity stream and while I rarely would notice or care I happened to be caught at a long slow train and noticed a lag of 2-3 seconds from video to audio (audio being delayed)

Overall the lack of full integration imposed by the limits of CarPlay are disappointing. Along with BMW not offering office 365 integration in the US makes all the technological stuff feel so limiting. So close but yet so far.
