This was just discussed the other day (again!)

If you search the forums you'll see the links to download it.

Do a search "echo bluetooth"

You'll see something..

dont do it, you'll blow your bypass

dont do it, you'll blow your bypass

Not necessarily. If it's a pre-june unit then it will change it from a flash your headlights to a ground 2 wires. If it's July-october, then nothing will change but the bluetooth echo problem. If it's october and later, the bluetooth update won't even load cause it's already on there.

DB, mine is a December 2006 and has a terrible echo. Are you sure it's already on 12/2006? Maybe it's just a matter of turning down the volume?

I'm pretty sure it is. You can check by putting in the bluetooth disk. But I think some time in October those units started coming with that update. Maybe it was in November. But I'm pretty sure December already had the update installed.

yeah no harm in trying. If you put the disc in there and hit the map button to initiate the update, if it gives you a warning that it already has the latest version, then i twont do it. Otherwise, it will start updating.

OK. I've been searching for the bluetooth echo fix for a while... can't seem to find the post. (Yes, I searched for "echo bluetooth" and didn't find it in the HUNDREDS of threads that get returned!!)

Maybe I'm looking right past it, but can somebody please tell me the url to the post of the thread with the actual file to make my CD?

Thanks!!

bobmun did post a good link. And if you do a search for "each bluetooth" and search for "Search for all terms" instead of the default of "Search for any terms or use query as entered"

You get 94 matches and it's the 10th one down on the very first page.

Which will give you 6 links to the same file:

http://avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php? ... +bluetooth

I would guess you left the "Search for any terms or use query as entered" which will give you all the "echo" posts and all the "bluetooth" posts.

At least you have the file now. Just make sure you read this:

I just *knew* it was there somewhere!

Thanks so much for the link, and the warning information, as well as the search tips for the forum!!

Now let's see if that fixes the problem because after performing the BT update, I am still having MAJOR echo problems.

Someone mentioned a while back that you have to sync it the first time with the volumn turned all of the way up on the phone. I'm not sure if I did that or not, if not, it was almost all of the way up when I sync'd it.... Any other secrets anyone figured out?
