loto Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 Please forgive my ignorance; I am a Nextel Dealer who is trying to make a hot client happy. She has a 2004 Audi A8 with what she thought was Bluetooth capabilities. I was at her office earlier showing her a Blackberry with Bluetooth capabilities and trying to get it to cooperate with her car. After about 20 minutes of dinking around with it I decided to call the Audi Service Advisor for some help. He said that the only phone that will work with Audi's Bluetooth is a v90c (or something like that) and it was over $600. It is a US model if that makes a difference. To me this doesn't sound like it's Bluetooth enabled; it sounds like it's v90c enabled. MY QUESITON IS is there anyway to make a Blackberry work in harmony with an A8? As a point of reference, I have a not-so-hot client who has a Lexus and the Bluetooth works flawlessly in her car. Please help. Thanks!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulW Posted May 4, 2005 Report Share Posted May 4, 2005 If she has a US bound 04 A8L, it did not come with Bluetooth. This can be verified by seeing that it has OnStar near the sunroof controls. Bluetooth came on the 05 A8's half way into the production year. They took out OnStar.....if it has OnStar....no bluetooth.....if it doesn't have OnStar, it has blueooth......all 04's came with OnStar. I have engineered a way to hook up a Bluetooth system to an A8 and sell the plans: Here is one write up of installation of a Parrot 3100 which is very cool. And here's information on her car and my kit, I recommend the Parrot install now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_B Posted May 5, 2005 Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 The important thing is, when you say "hot client", do you mean ready to buy, or "Schwing!"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loto Posted May 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2005 Chris - Schwing-hot. Charlie - I thought about that but if people are bored enough to randomly call some number they find on the internet they should get a hobby or volenteer their time to a good cause. On the other hand, if they need a Nextel phone or anything Nextel related, please call so I get the comm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
