It's not the cars, its the pathetic iPhones. My iToy is the worst phone I've had. I have a Blueant portable bluetooth unit and the iPhone only works on it intermitantly. My old HTC had no problems, nor did my wife's LG. The iPhone is good for music and has a few niftly aps, but for email, and as a phone its more useful as a paperweight.

Hi All,

I have an FG XR6T (November 08), also have an iPhone.

iPhone connects, works for a while I can make calls etc... and then although its still "connected" I can no longer use the car to answer or make calls, I usually wait till I get to a red light, turn car off and then on and then once again I can play "bluetooth roulette".

Car went in for its 30k service on Wednesday, there is a new software Mod for FG's that make the iPhone work, BUT, if your car is older then 6 months (I think) its a $450 (retail) upgrade.

Has anyone done this, or have taken delievery of their new car in the last few months, the reason why I ask is that I want to make sure the iPhone works, and if it brings your address book names up or just numbers.

Cheers All.

It can work, doesn't need to cost $450..

latest software update (v10 or later) should work with iphone, and iphone 3G.

For iphone 3GS you need latest (since October I think) bluetooth module (rrp parts $370) part number 8R2Z19C112CA

there is some really good from here; :stirthepot:
