Can't hear callers on hands free
« on: 03 March 2018, 13:27 »
Hi, i'm Chris and just swopped GTI for R estate. Problem with hands free and dealers seem less than helpful. If phone rings I can hear them but they can't hear me, seems like a microphone issue. Anyone had anything similar?
Thanks

I had this among other problems with the discovery system. Sorted after being into the dealer several times but the last time they replaced the whole system(don't know why they replaced the screen bit) but it sorted most of the problems.

Is it the same person you call or all different people?

Reason I ask is, my wife said she couldn't hear me when I called her a few times in a row. (Nothing new there  :rolleyes:)
Then she said she couldn't hear my daughter when she called.
So after removing the bluetooth paring and repairing, it then dawned on me she had the volume down!!!!
She didn't know the phone had its own volume. Which I suppose to someone who isn't technically minded is fair enough, considering she would be listening to blaring music then a loud ring tone then nothing.
