I posted this query on the ICE forum a couple of days ago, there have been plenty of views but no replies.  Here's hoping one of my Yeti colleagues has not seen it before and knows the answer.

 

I have an intriguing issue with my Bolero / Bluetooth at present, have searched the forum and can't see any previous comments on this so, before my Yeti goes into my dealer shortly I thought I'd ask if the problem I have is known about and what might be the fix.

 

I had a Pure Highway 300Di DAB radio unit fitted 10 days ago.  A few days later, checking over the settings on my Bolero I discovered the fader for the speakers set to 'front only'.  I reset this and carried on.

 

Checking again on next journey I discovered again speakers set to 'front only'.

 

After some trial and error testing I have worked out that, having switched the Bolero / 300Di on with the ignition all is OK (speakers set to equal front / rear) but when my phone connects into the Bolero on bluetooth, and I get the prerequisite 'bong', the speaker flicks to 'front only'.

 

A problem though is that I don't fully know how long this has been going on for as I check the settings rarely. 

 

Is it a bluetooth / Bolero issue or is it related to the installation of the Pure 300Di DAB?  Does anyone have any ideas?

Logic suggests that as it only happened following the Pure 300Di DAB installation then that is the cause. However, as I have no experience of using a phone in my car I'll shut up and wait for the experts.

Snag is I genuinely do not know if it was happening before the 300Di installation.  Its just that I only noticed afterwards; it might have been going on for a while, except I somehow doubt it.

So when Bolero sets to front only, is the actual sound only coming from the fronts only?

If I fade to fronts only the difference is quite noticeable on my Bolero.

Good point; I'll try this on my way home; still in the office at present. :(
