06 Bluetooth
#16
I've got a 2003, so I had to add my own bluetooth. Originally I had a Motorola IHF1000 - loved the functionality (voice tags in the unit, dial by number, etc) but had the same kinds of sound quality issues you're describing.
Switched to a Parrot CK3000 Evolution a couple weeks ago, using one of SDGuy's kits, and the problems seem to have gone away.
I'm curious what the brand of the factory-installed bluetooth unit is...

Congrats...I hope you enjoy the Q....powerful little phone, but I am afraid you will still have this problem.
My dealership at least had the honesty to admit there is a problem. We tried 3 other Gs on the lot....the service manager called his service crew from each car and they said it sounded terrible each time. I have a recorded conversation from the Infiniti helpdesk where they admit that there is a problem on all cars but the M (the M has an adjustable microphone level). If you want to take that recording back to your dealership....just let me know.

I noticed that the sound quality is also dependent on the folks on the receiving end of the call. Whether it's their phone or their carrier, I'm not sure. I have Sprint and the Samsung A900 and I can talk to my girlfriend on her T-Mobile Razr just fine. However, my friend who has Cingulair (I think) and a Samsung phone refuses to talk to me when I'm on my Bluetooth because she says I sound like I'm on a horrible speaker phone.
Maybe my girl is just willing to put up with more crap from me... But seriously, I've had her call me from my phone and I was on hers, and it sounded just fine.
I tell you one thing, the Bluetooth that she has on her Acura is sooooooooooo much better than ours. Sometimes, I can't tell she's on the bluetooth when she calls. And the caller ID showing up on the dash is pretty sweet.

Sorry to hear that Cokecan....
My cousin picked up a new Acura TL yesterday....he called me using the bluetooth system in his car and it sounded great! I could not tell he was on speakerphone at all, much less Bluetooth.
Like I have always said, I like my G even if it burns oil! It offers a lot of performance for a reasonable price...just wish they would do something about this feature that does not work.

I have the opposite experience - my bluetooth in the car sounds so much clearer and better than my bluetooth headset (Plantronics).
I'm using a Sprint PPC-6700 PDA phone and I speak with clients all day in the car - no complaints. My girlfriend refused to speak with me using my BT headset but will chat for hours over the G's bluetooth (blessing, curse?)
Maybe seating position is important? I'm a big and tall guy, so I lean the seat back pretty far and I'm pretty much pointing directly at the BT mic.

btw, my bby 7290 (TMobile) works fine about 90% of the time. But every once in awhile someone asks me if my phone is turned upside down!
