"Its very simple to do on iPhone 4, 5 and 6. To turn the text feature on first connect your device via bluetooth to your car's compatible multimedia centre as you would do normally to make hands free calls. Then on your iphone go to your bluetooth settings,select the connection for your car, click the blue circle exclamation point and the select "Show Notification" by toggling it on. Very simple!"

It had only worked on my Note in the f-type, but now it works on my missus' iPhone 7 plus in the XE as well. But I did have to allow notifications in the iPhone settings.
Sending the texts from the car system is a bit hit and miss though. I was told it didnt work in Australia but it did once, unless my wife thought I was talking about something else when I asked.

I do notice if I wear my apple watch and have my iPhone 7 and get a text or any other notification while driving that it will be muted and I will never know about it until I check my phone.
It is almost like when BT is connected it silences all notifications while driving with the exception of the phone ringing of course.
