No issues with my blue tooth (Y/M 2011, 6MT). Have a friend with a 40th and I didn't hear him complain. we've conversed car to car and car to phone on the blue tooth of both vehicles and no issues.

Maybe it needs to be checked... loose wire/connection maybe? Bad Mic? who knows...

Me too, the OEM module works very well, otherwise you might have to use a noise-reduction headset.

Bluetooth audio quality is not terrible, but I noticed people had a much harder time understanding me once I installed my cat-back. Then again, audio was never crystal clear to begin with.

Mine works great. So does the BT in my wife's Murano. Even works great for voice dialing and Siri voice commands.

Same here. I think it has a lot to do with phone comparability or the lack there of.

1stgen Moto Droid sounds great on both ends, but a lot of features do not work though.

YMMV

I'm not sure if there's a difference in bluetooth on a Touring vs non Touring but mine works great and with the Navi interface makes it all so much easier.

Cat-Back changed like Christian370Z had mentioned? Drone from the upgraded exhaust interfering with the sound quality?

I've had Bluetooth headsets not work well just because the accelerometers and GPS in the iPhone were taking up processing power. If I stopped the Bluetooth would work fine. This doesn't seem to happen with my newer iPhone however.

I know people have had issues hearing me when I'm on BT and driving on rough roads. The road noise seems to completely over power my voice. I'm hoping switching to some quieter tires after the stock Bridgestones wear out will help. I will also probably add some sound deadener at some point as well.

I have only had a couple calls in mine since I got the car, but I my phone is a Dinc 2 as well and I had no issues and the other parties didn't complain about not be able to hear me clearly. Like others have said may be worth getting it checked out as it could be a bad mic.
