Hi there.
I bought my 56 plate A3 2.0T S-line Special edition a while back, and am having problems connecting to the built in bluetooth unit. The car has the multi function steering wheel.
I can connect an old HTC/Qtek 8310 and all looks to work fine. I can scroll through contacts, make calls etc.
The problem arrises when I try to connect a newer phone, as in my HTC Magic/Sapphire, girlfriends old Nokia 6300 etc. They just will not find each other.
Can someone confirm that this is because the car's age means that the bluetooth is bluetooth 1.0 and all the new phones bluetooth 2.0?
If so, is there anyway to upgrade the bluetooth kit? I don't really want to put in a new retrofit item, when all the kit is already in place.
Thanks in advance.
Steve
