What i did was:
Hit the HFL button and say "phone setup"
then hit it again and say "Pair"
Make sure your on the bluetooth setup screen on your iPhone and it says Discoverable...
it should then find it and will ask you to say a 4 digit pin number... then the iPhone will ask you for the same pin. i hope it works for you

I have tried that exact method many times. For some reason my phone is not recognizing the bluetooth on my Acura I think. The phone says "discoverable" and "searching" but does not pick up the car bluetooth. When I say "phonesetup" and "pair" I just get "no phones were found." It is frustrating . . I know it should work. I will keep trying.

Yes! Success! I tried it again today and it finally worked. I know know if this had anything to do with it, but I paired my phone first with my iBook just to make sure there wasn't a problem with the phone. Then, I tried again to pair the phone with my Acura and it worked fine the first time. It works great now--even better than with my previous Treo.
call from iPhone then transfer to Handsfree Link not working
when I make a call from the phone then I see the option to choose Handsfree Link, iPhone, or speaker. Choosing bluetooth Handsfree Link does not work for me. Pressing the talk button on the steering then saying, "transfer" will not work as well. Anyone having the same problem? I have a 2006 TL.

Will not autopair
I have a Acura TL 2004. I am able to pair my iPhone with the bluetooth but I have a problem. The initial set-up is fine and I'm able to make/receive calls. When i leave and come back the next day, the phone does not automatically connect/pair. If i do the pairing process again it works but again, it does not automatically pair the next day... I have 2 iPhone's and they both have the same issue....
Note: previously I had a Motorola RAZR and it worked fine.
Any ideas ?

Trouble with Cellular Phonebook & Acura MDX 2007 with NAV
I was able to import my iPhones cellular phonebook in the NAV system (2007 MDX ) and use it for a few minutes to make calls and then I could not even use my iPhone at all on the Hands free link! When I tried to use the iPhone the car screamed back - NO PHONE AVAILABLE. Bottom line is I had to delete my iPhone from hands free link and then pair it up again - ths took multiple efforts but now I can use the iPhone through handsfreelink and when I press INFO the contacts are no longer in the Nav system... anyone else experience this or have any thoughts? The Acura dealer said he has heard of this happening with other phones

Unfortunately, I am still unable to pair my iPhone with my 2004 acura TL... (It does not automatically pair when phone is restarted). I have tried to unpair and pair it several times. I have deleted my iPhone from acura's list and pair it again.... 
The only thing I can think of... is possibly updating the software... I had noticed the software version and the database version is from 2003. I'm gonna see if these can be updated to the latest version... hopefully this will work...
