Had my 20,000 service today and the only problem I asked to be fixed was the Blue tooth phone system.
I can hear perfectly, but every one complains over the reception when I am underway. OK when stationary.
Dealer told me it is my Apple I phone and it needs the later softwear. I changed to the latest model and softwear and the noise is still the same.
They now claim it is the Apple phone as their Nokia works OK.
All our company cars and Apple I phones work very
well. (Holden, Falcon and Subaru)
Has any one had the same problem with the Toyota 200 series Blue tooth phone system?

I have BlackBerry and Nokia have no problems with them. Now had the 200 series diesel two years and all works
well.

The dealer is to replace my unit as there are bulletins from Toyota stating there is a fault.
You may wish to tip off your sister.

Toyota have identified the problem when you drive more than 60kph, They do know about it and ther is a fix for it, pm me and I'll look for the official Toyota bulletin today, ill send it to you then you can take it to your local Toyota dealership.

Is it a Sahara or GXL / VX add on? Different systems. I think the service bulletin relates the the latter.
If it is the Sahara then you can configure it and make it louder.
Hold the menu button
Turn the parkers on and off 3 times.
A service menu will come up. Go to audio ( or something like that, Then microphone and turn up a few notches.

It is a Dec 2009 VX t/d.
Thank you all for the info. Would appreciate the date or copy of the Toyota Bulletin.

there are 5 service bulletins relating to this matter, one of them should be able to fix the problem, sahara's have factory sat nav with bluetooth, the problem does not seem to affect these models

Sorry to sort of hijack - Does this apply to RAV4's (2009) Cruiser model??? Person at the 'other end' of the RAV complain they can hardly hear.
Same radio?

Hi pling, I also had a 20k service yesterday on Hilux and mentioned to service dept about bluetooth problem same as yours, service mngr had a look at the codes in the radio and had no hesitation in saying that the radio would replaced under warranty. There is a software problem (in Hilux at least) and by the sound of your probs may also be in 200 series, Best of luck
