If I didn't have the wifi antenna installed, wouldn't CarPlay just refuse to work completely?
You bring up a very good point that it may be caused by head unit proximity. A lot of the time, I do bring the phone out into the cupholder, and retry, but that doesn't seem to help. Anyway, I'm spurred to go update the software and see how it works the next few weeks. The main reason I haven't is a small, latent fear that it will make me pay $80/year for the subscription, despite the MY2017 having the lifetime option.

Ah I see.
No, I have done a CarPlay activations on vehicles which do not have the WiFi antenna and it will connect it's just the phone has to be right near the headunit (in the cup holder).
Might be worth just pulling the headunit out to check?
If not do all the relevant updates and go from there.
