[Djlech]

I got told that gps sound comes out from the right speaker so they can't change it.

That's bullshit, I have been told by MM it can be changed

[Swoffa]

so has anyone actually had this problem rectified.
I had the ps into them today for this issue and was told they cannot fix it and they cannot find anywhere to change it via software???

I've had the speaker swapped over, but it doesn't rectify the fault at all. I just use my iPhone headphones when making calls.

U certainly have a faulty unit then, people tell me all the time I sound perfectly clear

Looks that way. I'll get it sorted tomorrow at the first service. The screen keeps turning off and the reverse camera display appears sometimes when I connect my phone via the cable.

Apparently mine sounds a lot worse when talking to people using landlines and Android phones - no idea how that can be the case though.

I mentioned it to my dealer and was essentially told that that's what I get for buying a cheap car.
I've had a bunch of courtesy cars and rentals in the recent past, including crappy Hyundais and a Toyota Yaris, and the BT handsfree worked fine in all of them.

Demand they replace the whole unit

I assume that's what they'll have to do.
I've owned a Jeep - so I know how to get Fair Trading involved with these matters to get a result.

Just an update on my faulty handsfree kit -
My PS had it's 1500km service yesterday and the service centre confirmed that echo issue is present and have lodged a case with MMA. They tried it using 2 different phone in the car and calling both mobiles and landlines and unless the volume was set to "4" or less the person on the other end could hear their voice and road noise.
Apparently this was a reasonably common fault with Challengers, Outlanders and the ASX, and in those cases it was the amplifier that was the cause.

So long story short, the service centre has confirmed that it's faulty but needs to wait for instruction from MMA before they can replace anything. At least they've documented it I guess so now they have to rectify it.

Just wondering if anyone has had a resolution of this? I've recently taken delivery of my new PS and love it. All except for this horrible echo - I spend quiet a lot of time talking in the car.

I've swapped the bluetooth audio over to the right hand speaker which makes it a little better (I'm deaf in my left ear so had needed phone audio up really high which would make the echo much worse for callers).

Would love to hear if anyone has resolved with Mitsubishi.

thanks for your feedback @bige - do you mean there is a software update for the entertainment unit that I can asked to be applied during next service?

Great thanks, do you have any info about software / firmware version numbers that I can give the local Mitsubishi service people to see if they have it?

Took car in today to find out that they have no information about a corrective software update for the echo problem.

If anyone has had this problem corrected in Australia can you please let me know when.

The service manager told me that might get it next year (its just a piece of software and the head units are common between AU and NZ).

If its of any use here is my version info:

iPhone Bluetooth

The car manual says the microphone is in the roof centre, perforated panel approx 6” to the rear of the sun glasses drop down compartment. We found we can be heard a little better by turning slightly towards the mic.
