D4 Bluetooth

I have a 2010 D4 with the factory Bluetooth, and an iPhone, but the Bluetooth for calls is rubbish, it wont stay connected to the car. I have to manually reconnect with the phone almost after each call.

I knew the D3 had issues with Bluetooth and I used the exchange provided by Wiggs - but I thought the D4 was a better system?

Mine is amazing when it works, and as you said people dont know I am in the car.

I have an old iPod connected to the 30pin, wounder if that could be causing an issue?

I might factory rest the iPhone and see if that helps.

I have a 2011 and for the most part it's fine, however the issue I get is that sometimes when I answer the call the sound doesn't come via the car but reverts back to the phone so I can't hear. I have to switch Bluetooth off and reconnect before it works again.

However I had the same problem in my Audi that the discovery replaced, so I'm putting that down to IOS or my phone, not the car.

Yep same. Never had an issue with it not connecting. iPhone 6S

Could it be your phone is the issue?

Well I used my windows phone for a week without any problems, so called into Apple Genius Bar to find out I needed a replacement handset and my current one was 20 days out of warranty. Called my service provider to find out I had ages left on my contract so upgrading wasn’t an option, but luckily I found that I have another warranty provided by my network, so picked up a new replacement phone from Apple on Sunday and it’s been working fine since, so hopefully that’s it sorted now

I've just upgraded to the iphone X and I'm still having the same issue with my bluetooth, but as it was the same with my last iphone and audi i can't see it's the car side, must be apples bluetooth stack. playing up, I have to turn off bluetooth and then restart it and reconnect as the calls answer from the steering wheel, but audio comes out of the phone not the bluetooth.
