phoenix1151 Posted November 27, 2018 Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 My wifes 2012 SXT (bought used) didn't come with the owner DVD and doesn't appear to have any bluetooth hands-free phone capability. I'm thinking of getting her an aftermarket bluetooth hands-free phone kit that apparently will plug into the lighter socket. Looking for recommendations from others that have done this. Thanks folks.

phoenix1151 Posted November 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 EDIT: I started up the SXT and the touchscreen display showed the Uconnect logo but there is no phone logo anywhere. Without swapping the entire touchscreen, can it be software upgraded? I imagine it would need additional hardware too? Not having the DVD is a pain. The lighter socket type of aftermarket device is sounding like the easier way. PS: The clock continuously gains time too, so is there any way for the owner to adjust?

jkeaton Posted November 28, 2018 Report Share Posted November 28, 2018 You will need a lot of hardware and cost to add factory Bluetooth. Dealer can flash the module for the clock. Ours gained 5 minutes a day until we took it in and had it flashed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix1151 Posted January 5, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2019 I got her an Avantree stand-alone unit that clips on the sun visor. She likely won't use it often, but it's there if she wants it, especially now that the bubble-wrap politicians have increased fines for "distracted driving".
