Before I upgraded from my Windows Phone to an iPhone 6s, i was able to reply to a text while driving. I am wondering if this is a feature unique to the windows phone or if it is possible with the iPhone as well?
View 1 Repliesis there a way to make a text message make a sound alert? It will pop up for just a couple of seconds saying "new text message" but if I happen to miss that message. Just wondering is there a way to make it chime or something?
View 8 RepliesMy wife have a 14 Corolla LE Plus, no NAV and every time I get a text message it pop up on the screen and I can play the read out message over the car speaker system.
On my Camry it does not do this. I have NAV with the 7" screen. I try matching the setting of my Camry to the Corolla and it seen to be the same but still it does not ready out the message or even pop up when I get a text message.
My IPhone 5 is paired with the car that I know that for sure, all my phone book contacts and phone work just fine even play music from my phone. I can't find anything in the manual.
Bought a 2011 Camry XLE and the radio doesn't scroll from title of song -> name of artist -> channel number while I'm driving. It does scroll thru information when I'm at a stop.

View 3 RepliesI just upgraded my 2010 Camry XLE to the 2015 XLE Hybrid this weekend. Couple of issues... How to get the voice activated system to SEND text messages? I can receive and view them through the car display, but can't get them to respond. I get through all the prompts and then upon sending it stops and says it's not supported.
Second, what I need to get for my iPhone 6 Plus in order to use the built in Qi wireless charger that came with my car? Also, where can I get whatever it is I need to attach to my phone?
I have a 2012 PIP (assume same technology as non-PIP Gen 3s?). I paired my Galaxy S3 phone with the PIP and when my phone receives a text message, I get the prompt on the Prius' screen to read the text message to me. I then paired my wife's iPhone4 to the car, but when she gets a text, there's no prompt on the Prius' screen to read the text. Where should I start troubleshooting this?
View 2 RepliesI can receive messages and the HDD unit reads back the messages from my iPHONE. But when I hit reply and pick a preformatted text like " I am driving. Will call later" and hit SEND, it gives me an error. I have not so far been able to reply to any incoming messages.
View 1 RepliesWe've had our 2012 Camry LE 2.5L since October. In that time period we taken two 400 mile highway trips. The best mileage we've obtained is 28 MPG (hand calculated). That's all highway driving at 65-70 MPH. Needless to say, it's very disappointing. My 13 year old V-6 Mercury Sable wagon gets just over 30 MPG on the same trip.
In everyday driving it's only getting 24-25 MPG. That's mostly suburban/rural driving with some short highway trips mixed in. The car has just less than 10K miles on it, so things should be getting pretty well broken in.
So a few days ago until now I've noticed the transmission jerks as I am driving, like a slight stall and such. Could this mean my transmission is failing, I feel as if the car chokes. My car currently had 8900 miles, all highway driven.
While I was doing some reading, I noticed some people had their ECU resetted. Also my average mpg is 10 mpg on a v4.
I have a 2012 Camry and the Factory NAV system does not let me use the phone, GPS, etc. when the vehicle is in motion.
View 8 RepliesWhenever I start my car in the morning or when leaving from work, my A/C has a strong musty, moldy odor. It slowly dissipates as I drive (and switch to non recirculate). I haven't had the car but 4 months, but the odor is getting worse and worse.... I live in South Florida where the humidity is high, but never expected this!
View 14 RepliesI have a 2012 LE Camry 4 cylinder, and almost ready for the first service. I have an annoying vibration at 1150 RPM when driving. It does not matter if the AC is on or off. I have not discussed it with the dealer yet.
It is not a tire balance problem, it is engine related, and only there at a little less than 1200 RPM.
I recently bought a camry 2013 and I have a few questions.
-Some mechanical click sounds in the rear when navigating on tight turns at speed of 25 - 30 mph (the trunk is empty and there is nothing in th back seat)
-Transmission jerks when accelerating/decelerating between 25 - 45 mph speeds. If I accelerate from a stop and get up to 30/35 mph and go easy on the gas, then I can feel the transmission jerk (and get into a different gear ?).
-Occassionally the car seems powerless. This happens when the AC is turned on and the car refuses to increase speed on a level road and engine rpm at about 2300
-Mostly on highways, I keep pressing on gas and still the car doesn't pick up on speed.
-Remote doesn't function in the mornings. Every single morning. Have to click unlock a couple of times before it can work. It happens Occassionally during the day at any given hour.
-Occasionally Radio will restart for no reason.
-Can feel engine jerking (turning off with a thud) when turning off ignition
-Assisted braking works only between speeds 35 to 20 post which the braking by the engine will suddenly release.
To describe better this is what exactly happens: The car is travelling at 50 mph. To stop when I am applying little pressure on the brake pedal, say 10 lbs, the car begins to slow down, once it is in the 20 to 35 mph range, the brakes will behave like 15 lbs of pressure is being applied. Once the car is at around 20 mph, then all of a sudden the pressure will disappear and the car will come to a hault whenever it feels like stopping.
OR, from a speed of 35 mph take your foot off the accelerator and wait for the car to come to halt on its own. You can then feel how unstable the speed of the car gets due to this assisted braking not working properly ?
-Car seems unstable (shaking) sometimes while driving at over 70mph
-Never been able to get the advertised 35 mpg on highways.
-Many a times when I flick the indicator stick up (to turn the right blinker) there is a distinctive metallic 'click' sound like a washer/bush out of place. Same with the steering if I keep turning it all the way to left then it stops with a metalic click.
-The pasting of the interior (white colored) is coming off near where the left foot (dummy) pedal is.
I just bought a 2012 camry about two months ago, and now I'm starting to feel some vibration while I'm driving. It seems to only happen when I'm driving between 30 and 50mph, and I am accelerating. For example, I can be cruising at 40mph and go to accelerate and I'd start feeling the vibration. It doesn't happen every time, but enough to know its something wrong. Also I can gas it 0 to 50 and feel no vibration at all. Or I could be cruising between 30 and 50mph, and gas it, I still wont feel it. Like I said it happens the most when I'm cruising between 30 and 50mph, and only when I slightly go to accelerate.
View 14 RepliesI just picked up a Camry SE the other day and noticed that there are no daytime running/driving lights. I had them on my '05 Camry LE but this '12 SE doesn't seem to have them. Are my bulbs just out? Or do they not come with DRLs anymore? The switch in the car has "Lights On, Side lights, Auto, and No DRL." I always leave it on Auto.
View 14 RepliesJust like the title says, getting crappy mileage. all my driving is city driving and on weekends i go on the highway for about 3 miles to get to work, i4 2013 camry getting 19.8 mpg, does that sound right for just city driving? Car has 6643 miles on it bought it in May 27th.
View 14 RepliesI own a Camry SE 2012. Like a title above, driving with the ECO button on? I used to turn it on all the time, however, I've noticed something strange on my car recently. The transmission doesn't get smooth! I mean with the 6-speed auto transmission, it is supposed to change speed smoothly from 1 to 2, 2 to 3, respectively. It's like when I change from 1 to 2, the transmission is smooth enough, however, when I get to higher, it doesn't get smooth. I'm not sure if I turned the ECO drive off and it would get better or I just feel it so. My first thought was about the engine oil was not lubricated and out of date but I did maintained a week ago. It still happens on my car, but less than before.

View 2 RepliesI noticed on a few occasions that there is a slight smell of coolant around the front of our Camry after driving it a while. I haven't noticed any decrease in the level in the reservoir.
Since it's a CPO vehicle, I was thinking maybe some coolant was spilled during the inspection process. A little spilled coolant can go a long way, and last a long time.
This just started. Twice so far. The dashboard brake light, ABS light and the Traction control light pop on while driving. Pull over, shut the engine off, restart and everything is OK again.
