Default Loud bluetooth buzz intermittently with iPhone calls (nada on search)

06 W12, iPhone calls sometimes have loud buzz in speakers until connects, and call quality takes a dump when continuing call when getting into car. Dealer says, of course, "cannot duplicate fault", worked ok with their non-iPhones.
Any ideas? Works fine in my F-car.

I have exactly the same issue on my 2007 S8. No response from dealer or AoA on the problem.

Default iPhone's are "dirty" broadcasters - mine always causes interference..

with speakers, landline phones, and definitely on some starts of phone calls with the bluetooth in my car- an A6 with MMI. I love my iPhone, but it definitely causes issues for other electronic devices..

Default Aare you on the latest MMI software?....

Recently was updated, and the issue went away.

Default iPhone 3G models also have BT problems in cars...

Walt Mossberg mentions echo problems with BT-equipped vehicles in his article in the WSJ on the new 3G model. Hopefully this behavior can be fixed in a future software update.
