MB-4 and Siri

G'day

I’ve recently fitted a new MB-4 unit to a C200K (W204).

My iPhone 5 works through the UMI as advertised except that calls dialled through the MB-4 unit using Siri are terminated after 40 seconds. Meanwhile my iPhone and the phone I’ve called remain connected.

In other words: when 7* is selected, the radio mutes, Siri dials the number and the call is successful. However forty seconds into the call the mute goes off the radio and the call appears to have terminated, except that my phone and the phone I’m ringing are still connected.


Any help will be appreciated.

Seems like its a bug or hardware issue on ip5.
So far i connected ip4 / ip4s and samsung galaxy note2 won't have this problems.
It will be annoy if i got it disconnect after sometime.
usually i will press the call answer button on the steering wheel.
if i press it on my phone it will not connect.
Hope this help...

Thanks Project C

I’ve ruled out the iPhone 5 because the problem is absent when I dial using the car console and the steering wheel controls. It occurs only when I dial using Siri through the car microphone.
