Thanks! That's really helpful to know about the Bluetooth module and wiring. I've got pretty much the same symptoms you described. Been wanting to get this sorted for ages but wasn't sure what I was looking at. If you don't mind me asking, can you remember roughly how much you ended up paying for the fix? Also, has everything stayed working properly since then, or have you had any other electrical niggles pop up?
Hey again! Happy to share an update about my repair costs and experience. After getting my Range Rover Sport TDV6 fixed last year, it cost me 815.00 € for the complete infotainment system repair. They had to replace the Bluetooth module and fix that corroded wiring I mentioned earlier. The good news is that everything has been working perfectly since the repair! The hands-free system is crystal clear now, no more missed calls or audio issues. Honestly, it works even better than when I first got the car. Haven't had any other electrical problems pop up either, which is a relief given Range Rovers' reputation for gremlins. One tip though, make sure whoever works on it uses genuine parts. My mechanic said that's crucial for these electrical components. The diagnostic equipment they used really helped pinpoint the exact problem, which saved time and prevented unnecessary part replacements. Worth every penny to have it working properly again. No more awkward fumbling with my phone while driving!
Thanks for all that detailed info! You've convinced me to get this sorted properly. Just got back from the mechanic actually, had my car looked at this morning. Turns out it was exactly what you mentioned, faulty Bluetooth module and some dodgy wiring. The repair cost was similar to what you paid. Theyaged to fix it in a day, and I'm really happy with how it's working now. The sound is super clear, and I can finally take calls without reaching for my phone. It's like having a new system! Funny how we both had the same issue. Really glad I asked here first, saved me from going to multiple mechanics trying to figure it out. Sometimes it's just worth paying a bit more to get things done right the first time, especially with these fancy electronics. Thanks again for your help!
I dealt with a similar issue on my 2014 Range Rover Sport TDV6. The hands-free calling stopped working completely last year. My infotainment system would show incoming calls, but no audio would come through. Took it to the dealership, and they found it was a faulty Bluetooth control module, plus some corrosion on the microphone wiring harness. These electronics issues are pretty common in Range Rovers from that era. The repair involved replacing the module and rewiring the microphone connections. It wasn't a huge mechanical problem, but it needed proper diagnostic equipment to identify the exact fault. Got it sorted in about a day's work. Been working perfectly since then with no issues. I'd recommend going to a specialist who knows Range Rovers well, these electrical gremlins can be tricky to diagnose for general mechanics.
