Got a C300 sport!! Bluetooth question.

Palladium Silver/Grey MB tex. Ipod integration and automatic are the only options. I love it so far!!! More power than I was expecting, nice exhaust note, solid feel, and head turning looks.

I have a question though. I have a Samsung Blackjack phone(first gen), and I me and the sales guy had a hard time connecting it at first. But now, when I try and call someone or they call me, they cant hear me!! Any help? They say it just sounds blank on the other end. Other than that, it's an amazing car.

Here's a couple initial pics, nothing out of the ordinary, but oh well!

Very nice looking C! Congrats!

As far as the bluetooth question...I think you have us (or at least me) stumped. Have you tried just re-pairing the BlackJack with the car? I had a hard time getting my iPhone to work right until I did that.
Who knows. If all else fails, you could always just take it up to the dealer.

I had this issue with my blackberry...just made sure in the car bluetooth settings the blackberry was not listed as already paired and just kept trying to pair it (told the car to search for the phone). After 4-5 times it worked and ever since it has worked perfect. Just the initial pair was a little rough.

Yes, I re-paired it again, but I still can't be heard on the other end! I have to try one of our other non-Blackjack phones to see if its the phone, or the car. If not the phone I'm taking it to the dealer to see what they say.

Hey akbro93704 I'm having the exact same problem with my C300. I was able to pair my BlackBerry perfectly, as well as transfer all my contacts without any issues, but when I try to make a call the person on the other side of the line is simply unable to hear me, even though I can hear them perfectly. I read on another thread that you already had this bluetooth thing fixed, so I wanted to ask you, what exactly did the dealer replaced or fixed? What was the final veredict of the problem?

I had the same problem with Bluetooth and my iPhone. Last year when I took my car to the dealer for service I asked them to look into this.

When I picked up my car I was told they looked at it but could not find that anything was wrong. But, I made some calls on the way home and whoever was on the other end could now hear me, and it has worked great ever since.

Not sure what they did, but they must have done something...
