Angry Official Acura Bluetooth and iPhone Compatibility Discussion

just wanted others to know that the bluetooth on the iPhone works great with the Acura MDX Handsfrees link systems.

I can confirm this. It works great with my 07 TL. you can even import all your contacts into the car.

Works great on my 05 TL. I don't see an option to import contacts, but it paired up the 1st try and both the signal strength and battery strength levels display on the dash.

im not sure if its the same as the 07 but on the nav unit, hit the Info button below the steup button. then tap on the cellular phonebook and you can import from there.

Default Can't pair with my TL

For some reason, my iPhone won't pair with my 2006 Acura TL--My phone says "discoverable" and searching, but never picks up the Bluetooth in the car. Any ideas?

Is there a menu on the Acura's Bluetooth to "search"? Might try initiating the pairing via the car rather than the iPhone initiating the pairing -- if that makes sense.

Default Acura pairing problem

Yes--you initiate the pairing by saying "Phone setup" in the Handsfree mode. When I do this, it says "no phone is found. Return to the main menu."
And on my iPhone the "Handfreelink" does not show up as a device on the phone to select.
Thanks

What i did was:

Hit the HFL button and say "phone setup"
then hit it again and say "Pair"
Make sure your on the bluetooth setup screen on your iphone and it says Discoverable...
it should then find it and will ask you to say a 4 digit pin number... then the iphone will ask you for the same pin. i hope it works for you

I have tried that exact method many times. For some reason my phone is not recognizing the bluetooth on my Acura I think. The phone says "discoverable" and "searching" but does not pick up the car bluetooth. When I say "phonesetup" and "pair" I just get "no phones were found." It is frustrating . . I know it should work. I will keep trying.

Thanks for your help.

Yes!! Success! I tried it again today and it finally worked. I know know if this had anything to do with it, but I paired my phone first with my iBook just to make sure there wasn't a problem with the phone. Then, I tried again to pair the phone with my Acura and it worked fine the first time. It works great now--even better than with my previous Treo.
