Nokia carkit is useless with anything else but a nokia, had one in my S4 and it echoed badly. Everyone else has had the same complaint. Have a chat with Guy at APR nicely and you may work something out. Not cheap though. Just had it done on my RS4 and the factory one is perfect.

I have two nokia car kit's in my car and in my van - CK7W's
Both work fine, no echo at all.
I use a sony erricsson on them both.

All the features work well and i have no issues at all.

Maybe the installation has been messed up or something ??!!??

Hi, where about are you? If you're in Sydney I can recommend an installer for you. I had an OEM bluetooth retrofitted last week and all is working great.

Cheers,

Yep, talk with Guy at Harding Performance.
He may need some convincing.

I have another friend with the same Nokia carkit and has the same echo problems. Not sure what phone he uses. Im using an XDA Atom. As I said would not recommend it. The OEM is sweeeeeet!
