Bluetooth and GPS issue

When I pair phone and car receiver with bluetooth, GPS can't find satellites (in iGo).

When I turn off bluetooth, then GPS works.

Why?

Is this standard behavior for Android 4.3?

I tested it today, and it's not an issue.

It was just GPS didn't find sattelites at the given time when bluetooth was on, I blamed bluetooth because sattelites were found when I switched it off.

It was not related and just a coincidence, it works fine.

Shouldn't be any issues. I'm using a bluetooth headset along with gps almost daily so it seems like there might be something in the app (iGo? Haven't tried it). Have you tried using Maps when connected to the car system?
