Text Dictation/Bluetooth problem

I have my Iphone X connected to the bluetooth in my car for audio only, not for phone calls. when I receive texts I always use voice dictation to avoid texting while driving.

the problem is when im connected to bluetooth and i push the dictation button, it doesn't record my voice. it beeps once and the keyboard pops back up again.

Is there a fix for this somehow?

1. Does your car support CarPlay?
2. If not, is there a button on your steering wheel that will allow you to enter a voice command? In my car, that button automatically initiates Siri on my iPhone.
3. If so, use it to begin voice dictation.

I have to hold the Bluetooth button on my car audio set to do a voice command - releasing the button when I am finished speaking. Hey Siri doesn’t work when the phone is connected. Audio systems can do the same things in different ways.
