Help no telephone numbers !!!???

Post by stevie_514 » Fri Oct 26, 2012 6:33 pm

I have gone through the step by step guide to pair my phone with my car, with the end result ' PAIRING SUCCEEDED'. after turning the ignition to position 0 , concludes the pairing process. when all switched back on when i go into the telephone menu, it says..... my telephone book is EMPTY, Does the car not transfer the numbers to it or do i have to transfer it from the phone to the car.....help

Depends what phone you have and what Bluetooth module / software... I think. If you have the nav then you may need to upgrade to the latest software, which IIRC is v.32.
Current... Silver Grey ///M Roadster, non-flimper spec, Imola Red nappa, permanent ear-to-ear grin 8)

Previous... 3.0Si Sport Roadster, Black Sapphire, Dream Red leather with lots of toys and lots of mods...

Are your numbers on the phone or on the SIM?

It takes a while for them to appear on the system though ...

You might find it only reads numbers from the phone and not the SIM.

Add a number into the phone and see if that is visible.

Didn't think anybody stored numbers in the SIM any more.

There is indeed no way that the car reads it from the sim.
