    In the same situation myself, I don't know if it ever worked properly with any of the updates... it usually connects for about 5secs and then disconnects. I'm thinking of doing a Factory Restore on the phone (3G model) at this stage..

    Try deleting the pairing from the car kit and re-adding it.

    It worked ok with ios4 apart from having to pair it every time i went in the car.
    when i deleted the pairing after i updated to 4.1 it lost the connection and cant find it but i can find it on my old iphone.

    im running an iPhone 4 on 4.1 with the Nokia car kit.

    99% of times it works perfect but sometimes it will pair up and then when i receive a call i have to answer it then select the audio source as the car kit for the sound to route through the car kit.

    dont know wether its a :
    • handset problem
    • nokia problem (as the ck-7 kits are around a while now)
    • BMW problem (the E46 keeps some power going through the car for a few mins after you lock up)

    Had the same issue myself with 3GS & CK7W. Wired the unit to a permanent 12V feed and now when I want to pair, I just press the little button ( you know the one with the nokia logo which is used for answering / last number redial and volume ) and voila. Never a pairing issue since :-)

    I think you can only pair one phone at a time so maybe another phone is paired with it. I remember a few years ago having to press the button for 7 seconds for some reason. either to pair it or delete a pairing.

    Those Nokia kits can only support 1 phone at a time, they get unreliable if there are a few phones in the memory, any issues I've had in the past with CK-7W's have been resolved by a full carkit reset, which wipes the internal memory, re-pair only one phone and it should work fine, the procedure for a full reset is in the manual or google it.

    Resetting paired Bluetooth devices

    The Advanced Car Kit saves the last 7 Bluetooth devices that it has been
    paired with.

    The list of paired Bluetooth devices can be erased. To erase the list,

    the Advanced Car Kit must be switched off (indicator light goes off):
    Press and hold the button until a signal tone indicates that the list has
    been erased.
