My ipod wakes up only 60% of the time when I start the car engine. For the other 40% i have to disconnect and reconnect the usb cable for a link to establish. I read somewhere that a firmware update can work but a firmware update seems to be bundled with a map update which I am reluctant to pay.

View 3 RepliesSo this past weekend, I disconnected my battery to just tighten one of the wires on my Nigel LED fogs. it was a little loose, upon reconnecting the battery and using the car this past week, the weather and traffic have not been updating at all. only when my phone is connected and the enform app is synced. therefore using mobile data, not HD radio signal. I am getting HD radio and I am in the same areas I usually am so I am sure the HD signal isn't the issue. Should I just disconnect the battery again?
View 7 RepliesThe radio text display data stopped updating on my unit and still shows the artists/song titles from when it stopped working (several months ago). Whether there a procedure to reset this?
View 4 RepliesI noticed on a few occasions this weekend that the clock is not changing when the time does. It will go 10 -12 minutes usually and then change. However one time it went almost an hour and a half before it changed. I am lost. I've looked for a setting that my son or I may have changed, and read the manual, but still can not find anything about it. At first, I thought it was because I didn't have anything on in the truck. No radio, navi, anything. But after turning it on, still does it.
View 14 RepliesSo after updating Sync in my Super Duty the system no longer receives text messages on the stereo. Before the update if I was paying attention I could hit a button on the screen and the stereo would speak the text message. Now all I get is my phone is not blue tooth compatible with the system.
View 14 RepliesI just recently purchased a 2013 GS 350 and have noticed the maps have never been updated. How often does Lexus come out with new updates for the nav system? How difficult are they to install?
View 10 RepliesI have sent my 2008 ES350, 47K to a dealer since it has a bit hesitation on accelerating; RPM goes upto 3K easily to get engaged to next one.
The dealer told me that no hardware problem but they did update a tranny firmware. They added that it may work right away or work after 3~4 fuelings.
What would be next step?
I have a 2010 RX350. Using my iPhone 5 with the bluetooth in the car is a little hit and miss/sluggish. When hitting the button for Siri, the car seems to struggle with the process.
I am curious if the firmware for the car is current... and if not, does a more current firmware update the bluetooth for better functionality. I haven't had it updated for almost 2 years. I do have navigation.
How to upgrade the maps in the GPS. I have a 2010 GS350. Is it a do it yourself task after you purchase the disc/usb...
View 14 RepliesI have a 2012 ES 350 and I have paired my Samsung s4 smartphone to it. I hear phone calls through the car speakers but Any way to hear the voice that navigates you with Google maps through the car speakers as well. The car's own navigation is so poor I don't even use it.
View 6 RepliesI have a 2014.5 Camry SE with Entune Audio headunit without navigation or apps. I have an iPhone 5c that used to be able to display mp3 playlists on Bluetooth until I upgraded to ios 9.x. But essentially same headunit on wife's 2016 Prius 2 allows me to access mp3 playlists via Bluetooth. Is there a firmware update that will let my head unit do the same?
View 2 RepliesHaving issues with their RNS-510 in regards to inaccurate GPS performance? It was fine before I upgraded the maps and firmware. Now, it seems to lag the behind the car by about 10-20 meters and on side streets will sometimes jump over to the next street and back?
Its a revision G-unit (J after the update I think). I have reset the unit multiple times, cleared the GPS data, nothing seems to work.
The only light that comes on when entering the car is the dome light. Do the map lights not come on when entering the car? Very irritating. All of our past/present vehicles have the feature of all interior lights coming on before starting.
I have a 2015 Camry SE (non moon roof). If in fact the maps lights don't automatically come on when entering the car, can another map light fixture from a higher trim level be used instead? Or is this just a Camry thing.
I am enjoying my new (pre-owned) 2010 Gen III prius and it has been a pleasure so far. My only whine is that the navigation map mode is always in 'North up'' and 2D mode.
In this day and age of the GPS/MAPS world I suppose it wouldnt be too much to ask for a 3D view of the map and default 'driving direction up' mode? Also can the daylight mode be selected even at night or when the headlights are turned ON?
I have a 2012 Camry LE and I always use bluetooth connectivity between my iPhone 6S and the car. I use an online radio app called "Tambura" (similar to pandora but something which caters to Indian Hindi songs). Now I also use my phone as a GPS navigation device on need basis. The problem I am facing is that, whenever I am listening to music using the radio app in my camry's speakers with volume on around 15-20, whenever the Google maps voice says something like "take next exit" or whatever, it is almost inaudible. I expect the sound to be on same level as my music but that does not happen.
View 3 RepliesEverytime, I get into my V I play my various podcast (via iPhone). However, its takes about a minute (as compared to my wife's RX which connects instantaneously). Why it takes such a long time? Bluetooth is always on and its be "paired".
Also, when I turn off audio, the screen simply shows blue screen with "audio off". Is there a way that I can always default to the map screen instead of going to apps --> maps --> show map? Not a biggie, but a nice to have for me.
I cannot find the TPMS reset button. My car is GS350 f sport 2013 model.
