New Car, bluetooth help needed!!

Hi,

Just got a 2011 C300 luxury

Need help with bluetooth:

Basically, it would connect if I pair it up intentionally; however, it would not automatically pair up once i restart the car

I have an older samsung flip phone, which worked fine with the 07' 525i.

Another round of ICE
Is the phone "Device Properties" on the Bluetooth menu set to Yes as a "trusted" device?

I did search for other posts and that appears to be the culprit. However, there's isn't such function on my phone.

It worked flawlessly with the 5 and also the 09 clk traded in.

I too have a new 2011 and an older Samsung flip cell phone. It pairs fine with the car's Bluetooth, but it does not automatically connect to it. In other words, every time I start the car, the phone beeps and asks if I "want to connect to MB Bluetooth." Then I have to open the phone and press the "yes" menu button. There's no menu function to override this constant reminder. It's a PITA. My Blackberry connects seamlessly and requires no user intervention.
