2012 D4 HSE Bluetooth - Poor Sound

Hello,

Our 2012 D4 HSE has developed an annoying habit of cracking / stuttering with the Bluetooth audio during a call (makes it impossible to use). Is the module built into the head unit or is there something that we can try to switch out?

Any other ideas as to what might be causing the issue. All other sound is perfect (DAB, Radio, RSE, etc.)? Have not checked playing Bluetooth music - will try that.

Thanks,

Sam

Try another phone.

I had a problem once with mine when my phone got a firmware update. Before the update the call quality was really good. After the update it was terrible. Other phones were fine and when I changed my phone it was solved again.

HTC wouldn't believe that their firmware had broken anything and said I should update my car to one that was compatible with their phone. Rolling Eyes

That was the last HTC phone I ever owned. Laughing

Thanks @JonM - I have tried multiple phones (Apple and non-Apple) and the same thing. Been like this for ages, but really annoying now!

Any suggestions on this? The 2012MY has the Gen 2.1 of the system and I wondered if the whole thing could be upgraded / maybe even include CarPlay and then can switch from the inbuilt Nav?

No - not tried a 'hard reset'. Is there a link to how to do that? Many thanks.

Any one find out of the new bt module can be used?

Would be good to know. Mine has started crackeling as well. Just deciding to try or not.

I’ve noticed the very same thing on my recently purchased (new to me) 2012 LR4 HSE. Very annoying…very crackly, etc though music audio in my LR sounds fine. Any resolution available?
