Default Volvo Bluetooth Kit

Has anyone any expreience of the genuine Volvo Bluetooth Kit?

http://data.manageyourdealership.com...roductid=16266 (but you can get it cheaper than this (think £180 ish)

I like the idea of the original equipment and the full integration into the stereo, but I'm put of by the price.

I have a Parrot CK3100 fitted to my car and will be fitting the same to my wife's car. It is in my opinion an excellent kit, very good call quality and easy to fit as well.

Not working well for me at the moment. Will not pair with a SE K800i and with the Dynaudio premium system (C70) does not mute the subwoofers!

Thanks for that. I too have the Dynaudio premium system but without sub in a V50 T5. If I bought the bluetoth kit it would have to pair with an SE k610i and a K750. From your experience that would seem doubtful.

Not muting the sub is nothing short of ridiculous. I presume thats a Volvo factory fit sub?

Yes it is the Volvo Dynaudio for the C70 with twin factory-fit subs and the Volvo approved Bluetooth (Motorola OEM) so it is a major drop-off and I am awaiting Volvo's response. I don't think these subs are in the S40 so you may be OK, but the kit will not pair with any phone which is not backward compatible with BlueTooth V0.96 or V1.0 (many newer phones are BT V2.0 backward compatible only to V1.1).

The kit comes with a wiring loom and a mute relay but this only covers the main amp (as far as I know as the supplying dealer fitted the kit).

This should of course be a factory option but instead Volvo prefer to have a dealer pull your brand new car virtually to pieces to fit something which does not work properly. The dealer has offered to pull it all out again but I don't want my car to suffer all the pulling about until I know there is a better solution.

this ones for you hashluck, auto leads do a seperate mute kit for muting systems with the volvo sub installed.

you need kit 06-904b

http://www.siocommunications.co.uk/S...roduct=06-904b

good luck, maybe let volvo know.

the volvo fitted kit is a motorola unit, and you can get better others on the market. incidently volvos claim about can only fit to pre certain serial numbers cars is rubbish as i fitted everything in mine which volvo claim wouldnt work

I am giving Volvo loads of info at the moment about their own product!

I have a feeling there is something different about the Dynaudio Premium system in the C70 as it has two huge subs maybe each has its own amp and they only mute one? Not sure but with Volvo at the moment for the official answer. I am not holding my breath.
