Just moved up from an 02 D2 to a new 08 LR3 SE.

Get the guided tour on pick-up @ the stealership, everything going well until the final item.

'Can we sync my phone to the Bluetooth' - I ask innocently...

Phone syncs fine (iPhone 3G) - but when I dial using the in-car system, the mic in the car does not work :(

It won't work for voice commands either :(

So two days later, I get to collect the car after the techs have swapped every module in the diagnostic tree in an attempt to fix the problem.

Turned out to be the connector to the mic, which had it's wires soldered in the wrong way round!

Hope that's the only 'Lucas' electrical issue I'll have :ack:

Christ - electronics...plague of the modern automotive era...and the D3 has more than just about anything on the road and they are still put together by soccer hooligans with toothless grins brandishing soldering irons...love it and love my colonial Brit history!

Cheers
