Default Bluetooth/call quality issues

I've noticed that even at full volume, it is often too quiet. Sometimes the call will start off sounding just fine, then suddenly reduce in volume to where callers can barely be heard, even at maximum. Also, I've noticed that recently there is alot of static even when I have full service. Callers report that they hear no static, so I'm assuming the problem is internal to the car's Bluetooth and the two issues I'm having may be related. Anybody else have similar complaints?

FYI- I'm using an iPhone.

Default Re: Bluetooth/call quality issues

i have a 3g iphone, and aside from my previously posted note that the VM app doesn't work over BT audio (even though it selects the car audio be default), the call quality is pretty good overall. Volume is fine. Have you tried adjusting the volume level on the iPhone all the way up?

Default I've heard of intermittent, low volume complaints....

...that seem to coming from iPhone owners. Have you tried a different phone to verify if it is phone or a car issue?

Default Haven't tried another phone

I might try disconnecting and re-pairing the phone to see if it helps.

My main beef is that annoying buzz before the call connects.
