Bluetooth audio cuts in and out

Has anyone seen this?

Just playing music off my S4 (no pandora, just locally stored mp3's) and the audio will start cutting up like a scratched cd.

This has been happening a lot, yesterday the system said "No Signal" at one point then spontaneously rebooted itself.

Car is about a week old.

I had it happen once during the last two hours or so of a long trip. It didn't reboot, just sounded scratchy. But that's been the only time.

This happens to me time to time. It is almost as if the connection has some sort of interference and sounds like a scratched cd.

My solution is to simply change the audio source back to the phone and back to bluetooth. Easy fix and works every time.

Good luck!

Happens to me from time to time as well. Maybe once every 2-4 weeks? I normally change audio to radio and back to BT and it tends to fix it. Sometimes it won't and I'll have to turn off BT and on again.

Thanks for the comments...was reading in another thread that this has to do with being on Android version 4.2.2. Updating the software on the phone seems to fix the issue. Trying to update now.
