|  Bluetooth mic quality (on facelift) Hi We've had our facelift for a couple of weeks now, but one thing that disappoints is the sound quality (heard from the other end) when using bluetooth . All our most recent cars (BMW,Audi,Porsche) have had bluetooth, and the SLK's sound quality is by far the worse of any of them - it's very hard to hear what the driver is saying (and this isn't with the roof down!). Could anyone with standard fit bluetooth comment on whether they have the same issue? It may just be a dodgy mic which the dealer could fix (as happened once on a previous car we had). Ta Chris |

| Mine appears to work just fine, I've only made a few calls with it but the people on the other end said it sounded fine. I love the way I just turn on the radio and it connects to my phone automatically! I have a new Razr2 v9 if that matters.

| I have a non-facelift R171 and the other party seems to hear fine with the Bluetooth. A tad of background noise when the roof is retracted but can hear my voice OK still.

| Thanks for the replies, guys. Looks like we'll be getting the dealer to look at it, then. |
