I Love my 2008 LR-2 - But, have Bluetooth Problem - 6/12/2007 9:25:24 AM    B4NFTR Posts: 2 Score: 0 Joined: 6/12/2007 Status: offline I have had my LR-2 for 3 weeks and it has been awesome.  I took it on a road trip, put 400mi on it and it ran great!  Fuel use was as expected, averaged 20 MPG.  I replaced a 2004 VW Touareg and there is not much to compare.  The LR-2 is a different class of vehicle in a much better way! I highly recommend this vechicle.  I have it loaded with all the goods Nav/Lights/Heat.  My only complaint is that the Bluetooth doesn't work with the Blackberry 8703, 8830 or 8800.  I am still searching for ways to get this to work, anyone have any success?

I have my heart set on a Blackberry Pearl and it won't set up correctly with the LR2, at least so far.  If you manage to find a way to get the Blackberrys to work with the LR2, please post it, as there IS a problem with them. My dealer had warned me about it, as they'd had problems with the Blackberry on the RR. (in reply to B4NFTR) Post #: 2

Looking forward to days of enjoyable driving! (in reply to rmjones) Post #: 10
