According to Honda, with the 2013 CRV the iPhone 5c is supported for your model year, but not the iPhone 6.

However, this person seemed to get it working:

I own a 2013 CRV and had an iPhone 4s when I got it.  The dealership paired the phone and car for me and that was that - no problems.

Recently, my wife and I purcheased iPhone 6's and I have not been able to get the 6 to "talk" on Bluetooth with my 2013 CRV... until today.

The solution is clearly described in a PDF located at:

Scroll down to the part about adding a phone when another phone had previously been paired to the system.  That's the key, understanding that adding a phone when a different phone had previously been paired to the car's system requires a new process.  I was going crazy trying to use the "Phone" button on the dash and then trying to add a new phone by choosing "Yes" when it prompted "Connect to a phone..."  That won't work.

You flick the little button you normally flick to initiate a hands-free call, and that starts the process.  You pick "Phone Setup" then "Add a new phone" and then you enter in the code 0000 and then you're done.  Simple as that.

Hello back! I just tried your method and it worked! I may have to select my phone each time - I don't know if it will automatically work, but at least I can pair it! I REALLY want to be hands-free with the phone. thank you SO much for your help!
