Bluetooth Telephone

[musonic]

I've just purchased a 2006 (pre facelift) E320 cdi estate. I was told by the dealer that it had bluetooth phone capability. I have been able to connect my phone via bluetooth (although connection is not stable), but when I press the TEL button it is still telling me to insert a telephone. Could someone please help me get this working?

AFAIK this bluetooth feature is just for a privacy headset, not the primary phone connection.

Do you have phone pre-wire, the little triangular connector under the centre armrest?

If not you'll need a phone kit installed. If you do, you'll need a bluetooth puck to fit onto the connector.

My car is a 2006 C class with the plug as shown in photo above ^^^

I have a MBenz Bluetooth adaptor plugged in and it connects to the phone immediately. I can use the buttons on the steering wheel to make and receive calls but not the ones on the dashboard.

I don't know if this is a fault as I have not really bothered to investigate further. The buttons on the wheel are enough for my needs.

These adapters are all over eBay as are Viseeo adapters.

Good luck

Ok, so I do have that connector - hidden underneath a little plastic cover. So I need to find a bluetooth adaptor? Is that the same as a puck?! I did wonder why there were two coiled cables running down into the storage compartment underneath.

Yes, same thing. Have a look at https://www.commandonline.co.uk
