Mercedes phone woes - can anyone help?
Discussion
Folks,
I have a 2004 CLK, which was pre-wired for phone (it had the little connector in the top of the armres5). I installed The HFP cradle and have absolutely no problems hooking up with Bluetooth, downloading contacts etc.
The problem starts when I am on a call. The in car clarity is excellent (as in I can hear the person on the other end clear as a bell), but the person on the other end of the line has the devil's own job hearing me due to background noise. When I mute the call at my end, the background noise disappears, which leads me to believe that it is an in car microphone sensitivity issue.
Has anyone come across this before and if so, how did you cure it?
Mods - I've also posted this in the MB forum, but thought I would put it in here as well in the hope of more traction. Could you please let it fly in GG for a little while?
Cheers,
Alex
