Bluetooth dials a random number?

Crap if this has been discussed already I\'m sorry I\'m using the app on my phone and can\'t search and getting frustrated so I thought I might ask. When I press the phone button on my steering wheel my car just dials the same random number every time I press it. It also won\'t let me pick a name from the phone it says the directory is empty, but if someone calls it recognizes the number and shows the name of who\'s calling so it clearly recognizes the directory at that point.

Am I missing a step here? Phone is paired with no problem. I can make calls from the handset and receive incoming calls no problem but when I try to use the voice assist it dials a number nowhere near what I said and won\'t let me look up the numbers in the directory!

Thanks.

My 335 does the same thing - embarrassing to say the least!

^^^ Yep especially when it happens twice in a row haha. Took me a couple tries to figure out the "phone" button hangs it up too... Oh well.

If you don t have I drive, you have to hold the button to show the phone book I believe, a brief press will just redial the last number.
