This drove me absolutely spare for the last two years Off and on .
Let's go back a year or so when I reached out to you guys for help regarding an issue, every now and then my multi media unit would not understand my commands when using android auto and at the same time that this would happen, people who I would talk to via Bluetooth In my van could not understand me saying I am breaking up or just it's just a bad connection
I thought it was a Bluetooth issue and danishblunt tried to help thinking it was also a Bluetooth issue ( PS thanks for that db, this post is mainly for you because you really tried to help)
I ended up buying and trying various phones like the pixel pH ( I can't remember what model it was but it was the newest at the time) and the OnePlus 9 pro ( a mean lean phone I might add but just like Asus pathetic software updates) and eventually they all did it.
Ok enough crap I finally found a Toyota service guy ( thanks Luke - Preston Toyota) who worked it out. It was just a bit off crap or dust or something that had gone into the grill protecting the multi media microphone and bounced around in there interfering with the Microphone.
I have confirmed this by simply putting my mouth up to the grill which is directly above the Sun/ reading glasses slot when it plays up and blowing into it and like magic it's gone, the issue I mean
Unbelievable it had me on my knees praying to the late king Bluetooth, and you know,what I think he heard me and managed to get the technician in the right place at the right time like when I was around the corner from the dealership and he was around also around 😜
Don't you just love it when you finally work a puzzle out that robs your sleep 😴
On the next service they are going to pull the microphone unit apart and give it a good clean but a sly dig at Toyota for $50000 ++ really fix this it not only drove me nuts it cost me thousands of dollars in experimenting with different New phones for a brand new Toyota HiAce Van not good enough
