Skylar, you seem to be quite the BT guru in the forum, thanks for the hard work and info that you have supplied.

Question for you, I have a 2006 E320 CDI (02/06 build date), the phone is not wired for the phone system and I being in CA have to add a BT system to the vehicle and also want to add iPod integration.

I have looked at some info on the OEM BT puck and wiring along with the ability to add VCS to it but the cost is a bit alarming to me. I do like the OEM stuff over aftermarket in general.

The aftermarket unit I am looking at is a MoBridge with BT & iPod integration.

So questions are:

1. Would OEM VCS work with the MoBridge unit
2. Is the OEM BT better than the MoBridge unit for reception, clarity and use
of steering wheel control. I have an iPhone with 1800+ contacts in the
phone book
3. Assuming the OEM makes use of the Tel-Aid phone mic, etc.
4. Saw Kevin's PDF and think I could handle the install myself if I knew all
the parts for my car.

Thanks for any feedback and info.

Bluetooth

I had a tookie (after market) bluetooth installed in an MB E350 and it did something strange to the fiber optic network and took out all my nav, radio, all electronics. It also - when it did work - had a horrible echo on the other end, as well as dropping calls. It was interesting. Then, when I considered a MB bluetooth, we could not pair my phone (AT&T Tilt) which supports windows. What am I doing wrong, has anyone faced this? Bluetooth is not an option for me....I must have it.

Check the firmware on the Tilt. Some earlier Windows Mobile firmware had a problem with many Bluetooth systems, but an update fixed most of these. I don't have the update bookmarked, but a search may find it for you.

Be advised though that if the Tilt is not compatible with MB, you still won't get things like phone book downloads. You should be able to place and receive calls, at minimum.

You will find it easier to buy a phone that is compatible with your car than to find equipment compatible with your phone.

A little late in this response but my experience with the LG Dare is that the address bok works fine with the first BT adapter for my 2006 E350.

Thank you in advance.

I've never seen one but I believe the code is 62872. You should find it from the AWS site too.

I believe each unit has it's own code, but it's been a while, so I'm not 100% sure. There should be a little cover that comes off, and the code should be underneath. Check to see if you can find a code on the unit itself.

Edit: The above code: 62872 is correct. But as mentioned in my post, it is also listed on the puck. See this post for more info in case you forget the number in the future (see image 3 from the link below):

An easy way to remember the code is "MBUSA".

In U.S. specification cars, SMS is not supported over Bluetooth in MB systems. It will work with plug-in phones only.

Foster I have a tilt and it pairs fine. Have you modified the ROM at all? Mine is completely custom and I noticed with some of 6.5 roms they use a bluetooth diagnostic tool that tries to auto pair the device. If so on the bottom right corner there is something that says "more" use that to search for devices instead. This will allow you to enter the needed password.

Welcome to the forum.

You probably can't get an answer because your question is just a bit off the beam. There is no "chip" - it's an entire system, with several components. You don't identify the "set" for the phone that you're talking about - we don't know what you mean.

Your car uses an MHI phone system. The phone bulletin for your car, which identifies the system components, is at http://phdwebsite.powerpulse.cc/Phon...0C%20Sedan.pdf. You can read a bit about equipping cars with an MHI system at post (permalink) #5 at http://www.benzworld.org/forums/audi...des-plug.html; and post #1 contains additional information about version coding and also other sources of parts.

The phone bulletins for the C-Coupe and C-Wagon are at http://home.earthlink.net/~phdwebsit..._bulletins.htm

Please read those materials, and if you still need help, ask again - preferably in the "How To Guide" string.
