Has anyone else noticed an issue with talking to people with thier phone connected to thier car's bluetooth? I did not have the issue on my 3g (in my 250) or the 3gs in my F now but since I "upgraded" to the iphone 4 I have had issues with my cars bluetooth not being clear or sounding distant or really loud feedback. Anyone else run into the issue? Also my wife has the same issue in her is250 (she has an iphone 4 as well) so I know its not just my phone with the issue. Is the bluetooth reciever replacable?

In my experience it is a iOS4 issue. My 3GS phone worked perfectly in my car (and with other bluetooth audio interfaces as well) untill I "upgraded" (I use the term loosely) to the iOS4 (from iOS3) and the sound quality went into the toilet. Due to "antenna-gate" Apple has not yet addressed the issue and denies that it exists. Just scan the forums at the Apple website and you will see countless complaints of iPhone 4 and iOS4 users and their bluetooth headsets, in-car hands free, and wireless headphones and speaker systems.
Try deleting the pairing and re-pair the phone to the car, sometimes it can improve a little bit. Owners of Fords with the "Sync" package find that iPhones are almost unusable now. Thanks Apple. FAIL

I've gone through all iPhone generations and the worst one in terms of Bluetooth was the 3G, all others worked OK in my F, including my current iPhone 4. I have one contact only who complains about the call quality while I use the iPhone 4 in BT mode (with the F), but I think the issue is her Blackberry, not my phone, all other people are OK with the conversation.

Hmm. That's strange. I've had no issues at all and I went from the iPhone 3G to iPhone 4. Both seem to work well with the car.
Maybe try deleting the profile and re-pairing the device. If that does not work, cross your fingers and hope that the iOS4.1 update being announced right now somehow fixes it
. It does mention updates to Bluetooth.

I've had issues with mine, but it's a hit or miss...A restart on my phone usually fixed the problem.
If anyone wants to bring any business to AT&T send em my way =). I need to pay off this F some how lol

Guys - sorry to get a little OT, but does the USB port charge your iPhone when it is plugged in? I am picking up a F on Friday and have a long drive home. I don't want my phone battery to die so need to know if I can just plug in and charge with the USB port or if I need to buy something. Thanks ![Smilie](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

iPhone4 here with a gen6 Nav (2010) and it works great. Loud and clear. The phone will charge when connected to the USB and so will an iPad.
My wife's Prius, on the other hand, has a gen5 Nav (2008) and that sounds a bit weak and distant. Had the same problem on another Prius with gen5 Nav, as well as on a 2009 535i. Can't really tell if it's an iOS issue or a microphone issue, just glad it works fine in the F.
