This has prob been discussed somewhere in these forums, but I could not find it, so I apologize if this is a repeat...

Everytime I get in my car I have to go into my Motorola V551 under; Settings, Connection, BT, Handsfree to got to 'BT Power is off, Temporarily Power on? and then select YES for my phone to connect to my car.

Is there a way to set it to automtically connect to the car, without having to 'turn the bt power on', in my phone, every time??

Thanks!!

You should have the Bluetooth Menu 'Setup' at the same level as 'Handsfree'? - if you do, then set Power to on (permanently) from there. You should also have a 'Device History' menu at the same level. Edit the line for your car and set Access to Automatic.

Cool, thanks. I changed the power to on. With this power always 'on' does it use up the battery in my phone more quickly?

Yes, it will do. I recommmend a cradle if thats a worry, if you don't have one already
