i had the same problem.. i went back and modified the entries in the phonebook so that they appeared exactly as they do when i get a call on my phone.. i did have to put 1 in front of a couple of numbers in order to get the name to show for an incoming call.. hope this helps

Is his an 06? Maybe is has to do with the overide button. My 07 shows name, number, ect when stoped but not driving. I wish it would though that way I dont have to look at my phone to make sure who it is.

The early responses in this thread had it right. Bluetooth sends number, not name. Name only shows up if it is in the car phonebook, and the number matches exactly. When the car is in motion, the number is blanked out. The name, if available, is not.

The override button is for entering destinations and has nothing to do with bluetooth.

I see when your connected it will tell the name but no number while driving if the match is correct, but when the call is incomming, the screen still just says "incomming call" no name or number.

You sure!?! You see the name when the car is stopped, but when the exact same person calls from the exact same phone number while you are driving, you don't see it?
