i have this working now with my iphone 5.
here is what i did, and how it works with Iphones..
1. In H/u setup menu - turn on TXT notifications (most of us have already done this, and wondered why is not working).
2. connect phone via blutooth as normal.
3. once connected send yourself a txt, you should see a pop up notification on the screen saying "New Text Message" or something similar. What you wont see is your txt message, only a notification that you have a new message.
4. on the h/u push the "Phone" button, then "messages".
5. you can now select the message you just sent yourself, and have h/u speak the txt to you.
This works in my 2014 Fr-s with the following conditions....
Older messages do not sync to h/u, you will not see txt or see notifications for any messages that you did not receive while the phone was connected via bluetooth. any new messages that are received while connected via blutooth will appear as "new text message" notifications untill you hit phone button / messages / select message to play.
kind of a big pain in the ass to use txt function on the h/u when its 1 click on the phone itself, or rather, yell at siri to play the message and or respond.
also, if the vehicle is moving, most message features will be locked out. play with it in park until you get it working.
