Why wont my contacts transfer from Droid to 07 SL550 via MB bluetooth puck?

ok so i got the bluetooth working fine. but it looks like there is some trouble getting the contacts transferred. When i turn the car on it briefly says something about downloading like its trying to download the contacts but no notifications pop up on the phone. So I tried to do what i haf to do with my 4runner which was to "push" the contacts to the car. I downloaded astro bluetooth manager and saved the contacts list as a vcard to the sd card. I then go to the bluetooth manager on the phone and select the file to send via bluetooth to "mb bluetooth" and it says "push failed".


is this just something that isn't supported? I've seen mixed messages on the forums about it. any help is greatly appreciated.

How many contacts do you have?

For some reason Verizon quadrupled my contacts and it was beyond the SL capabilities.

Now that I am back down to 238 contacts all is fine.
