Question about 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport

Software upgrade for 2005 Range Rover Bluetooth module

I just bought a used 2005 Range Rover and I'm having problems with the Bluetooth system. I was told the Nokia Bluetooth module that was installed by the factory needs to be upgraded with a new one that hold newer software. My question is; Does anyone know if I can 'flash' the original Nokia module or do I have to buy the newer module. The dealer has no idea and Nokia is also clueless. I would think, any module should have 'flash' capabilities and it can be done, but the dealer said they could try it with no guarantees it will work.

Was your 2005 in an accident prior to the issue? Also, was the leak in the rear of the vehicle?

Official LRNA solution: buy a new module. I will be doing this tomorrow. I have been through this comprehensively with LR Dallas and LRNA. There may well have been other modules installed depending on when the Rover was built, but mine is not flashable. BTW, when plugged in, the dealer computer checks your Rover for updated software, which is downloaded from LRNA every night.

If your bluetooth module part number ends in 042 its the 1st model so you need to get a newer model and theses can be re programmed if they fail and start dropping callls or need upgrading to newer phones coming out all the time plus this can be done if you search for a guy on the forums called wiggs he charges around 60 to upgrade and repair

Back up camera not working?

I have the same problem that got worse. Now the radio is not working at all after pulling the fuse to inspect it. In going around I understand that the Bluetooth module could be the culprit. I went to the dealer they told me that there is no codes for the radio.

Programming a used 2005 Range Rover key FOB

Unfortunately I believe that will require a trip to the dealer, and a hefty price tag to go with it. Most dealers refuse to let anyone else handle their security systems. And most keys have the alarm keypad built in making it even more dealer specific. I wish I could give better news.

Paired Blackberry Curve 8310 w/Range Rover 2005 drops calls

Ok, this isn't so much a solution as a work around.

As long as your phone is still holding the call (showing connected), once the Range Rover drops the call, hit the soft button that shows a picture of a green phone receiver....as if you were making a call. This will cause the Range Rover to reconnect the speakrs/mike to the phone, and you can continue your call in relative harmony.

I still haven't figured out how to get out of the jam when a second call comes in while you are still on the first....

Good Luck
