Hi all,

I have a motorola RAZR V3 paired with my Bluetooth. The problem is no-one can hear me - even if I go right up close to the mic, they still can barely hear me. Is there any way to turn the mic sensitivity up? I've played with vol settings on both car and phone. Are there any gain settings on the bluetooth unit in the boot?

Sounds like you have a problem with the mic. There's no way to adjust the sensitivity as far as I know -- have the dealer take care of it...

If you have a pre march 04 production car, then you have an older TCU that needs to be upgraded.

Ahh..... It may well be. Will they do this with no quibbles?

Does this give any other functionality updates? I know in the boot there is a box with an abbreviation on it - Im sure its related to the BT because i've seen it mentioned here. I may go out and have a look later.


Thanks a load!

Dealers will not repalce the TCU under warranty unless it is broken. There is a SB out on upgrading the older cars to enable BT and all of the service departments have been advised not to repalce the TCU unless the customer pays.

If your car was produced after March 10, 2004, it would have had the updated TCU installed. If your car falls into the latter category, you will likely be able to have it repaced under warranty.

Good luck getting it fixed, I've had no problems with using the RAZR in my 2005 545i with nav. Sound is excellent.
