    Whenever I select someone to call for a split second I get a loud very audible BUZZ. The phone then functions as usual (over the bluetooth). Any suggestions on what is causing this -- and how to remove it?

    I have a 2005 Prius with Motorola RAZR V3xx. I have no such problem.
    It is very likely your cell phone that is the culprit. Maybe it is time for a new cell phone?:D

    I have a couple of questions...
    1. What is your phone?
    2. What is your carrier?
    I have a Voyager with Verizon and it doesn't have that problem (neither did the Moto e815 before that).

    For the record, I unpaired, deleted both profiles, re-paired the phone, and the buzz is gone.

    I have an '05 pkg 5 paired with an iPhone and have the same issues. In fact, I just had to swap out my phone for a new one and the new one does it as well.

    I've heard on a twit.tv podcast iphones occasionally buzzing. I don't own one, but I think they do that.

    No activity on this thread for a while. No anwsers?
    I had a Treo 680. Initially no buzz, then suddenly it began to buzz (loud) after the number was selected from 1 touch, until it started to ring. I have no idea why it suddenly started.

    Now I have an IPhone, same effect. Loud and annoying. So it's not an IPhone issue.
