I have an issue with the Bluetooth on my E63. It works great, but when I turn off the car and exit the vehicle if my phone rings and I'm within 30' of the car it grabs the signal. So far the only solution is to turn off the Bluetooth feature of the phone every time I get out of the car. Is there a way short of rewiring the power to the Bluetooth adapter to force power off when the car is off ??

Thanks

The bluetooth puck in your car should power down about 2 minutes after you shut the car off. We all have the same problem and it's bit annoying. I've had bluetooth in my car for about 4 months now and I can count the number of times I've gotten a call before the bluetooth disconnected on one hand. It's a pain in the **** when it does happen though.

 

Turn off your phone when you get out of the car. Press TEL button and turn it off

 

Am having the same issue and with my home office immediately next to the garage, every time I opened the car door or trunk, the bluetooth connection would be activated!

According to the instructions that came with the bluetooth module, holding down the "TEL" button for 2-3 secs. will disable the connection so will try that next time before I stop the engine.

 

Sounds like the puck must have a capacitor that has to drain before it completely shuts down. Thanks for the feedback I'll try the Tell Off solution.

 

BTW, slightly off topic, but has anyone else noticed that the BT module looks a bit like the front end of a McLaren Mercedes F1 car?

 

OMG , yep sik man just sik..

Only a mb would have a puck designed after thier race car

 

this is pissing me off too.

 

OK so my wife has been nagging me about this same issue. If she gets out of the car, and a call comes in, the car picks up. This happens even minutes and hours after she exits the car. What your saying is that it should sleep after 2 minutes? What if it does not is there a setting or a reset?

 

or with iPhone, u have option to change source between iPhone and MB BT...

 

MJ50 How did you get your 04 55 bluetooth ready? The dealer told me my 04 is not bluetooth capable?

 

dealer say million things that cannot be done...
i got BT puck with tail which will work with 03 and 04 models...
full BT integration for under 300 bux...
can't beat that!

check with benzworld.org.... there's a nice thread about it on 211 amg section...

 

Does it work with your factory nav system? Im not a member on benzworld...Where do i get it done??? sorry thanks!

 

yes, i have US COMAND and works well...
