  1. If you were a Toyota designer... what would you change?

    I would completely rewrite the Toyota Infotainment system software to have Carplay mute the music when reading a text like it does in every other vehicle and I would add more customization options to the audio system for tuning speakers, levels, ect. I would also allow a user to remove the...
  2. [Solved] Apple Carplay Issues - Siri inaudible and unusable

    Its working as poorly designed. Toyota Brand Engagement told me they do not see this as an issue and no plans to fix it. Contact them to file a complaint, maybe if enough of us do they will fix it. I have been fighting this since 2024 when I bought my Tacoma.
  3. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    So I finally got a definitive answer from Toyota Brand Engagement. I had to go through 4 different representatives, but one guy finally told me the answer. They are not planning to fix this. Toyota see the Apple Carplay not muting music while playing or recording text messages as working as...
  4. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    Jerrod, I have been back-and-forth with Toyota Brand engagement on this issue for almost 2 years, it's a struggle. Please open a case with Toyota brand engagement, they look at the issue when more people report it. They did extend my warranty because I have been screaming about it for so long...
  5. What PSI are you running?

    30 cold, front and rear. I also wanted to add, has anyone else noticed that when it's lower and you get the check tire pressure warning at startup, it doesn't even show what the pressure is? I have seen other makes and models that show the actual pressure at startup, just not this one. One of...
  6. Oil Change Question?

    I am at 22k on my '24 Taco MT, I did the first oil change for free at 10k, but felt like that was way to long to wait to change the oil, I did my next at 15k, then they paid for it again at 20k. I let them change the filter each time, I just think it's best to baby the engine rather than push...
  7. Recall Notice (25TB08) - 12.3 inch display instrument panel may go blank at startup

    I have experienced this once in my TRD Sport, screen would not come on until I held down the main power knob for about 10 secs to reboot it. I have to use that reboot method all of the time to get Car Play to interpret my text-to-speech correctly. Sometimes it will not even take my entire...
  8. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    So I've almost had my '24 Taco for 1 year now and I just went in for my 20K maintenance and while waiting I saw a marketing advertisement for Audio Multimedia. I laughed because under Apple Car Play it states "Pair your compatible iPhone to get directions, make calls, send/receive text messages...
  9. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    I feel like the CarPlay experience in the Tacoma is so far from what it should be that they shouldn't be able to say it supports CarPlay. It doesn't work as it's intended and half of the time when I try to reply, the voice to text doesn't even catch what I am saying. Doesn't matter if I mute...
  10. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    Latest update from Toyota, they are FINALLY admitting that this is an issue within Toyota software, but there's not ETA on them actually fixing it. My recommendation is to open a case, reference my case number, and then blast them in the survey responses that you are able to post until...

  12. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    You can contact Toyota Brand Engagement center and open up a ticket, that would be helpful if they would get a bunch of tickets inquiring about the same issue. Here's the contact info for phone and online ticket support. You can say they should chain it to Case # 241016000858 because it's the...
  13. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    Still fighting this battle for all of us! Here is my most recent post to Toyota Brand Engagement. Apple has stated this is a problem with their software design, not Car Play so hoping they finally do something about it! Hello, I received the following information from Apple after extensive...
  14. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    So latest from Apple, they asked me to completely restore my iPhone to factory and see if the issue still persists. I told them the fact that my iPhone works in other vehicles, and other peoples phones do not work in my vehicle should prove that, but this is the road they want to lead me down...
  15. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    Agreed, they put very little time into the audio configuration options. I love the little removable speaker, but it's way too overpowering. I found it sounds best if I tune treble, mid-range, and bass well below mid. I also noticed that the sound quality of Sirius XM versus when I use Spotify...
  16. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    I am still fighting the battle for all of us. My support case with Toyota Brand Engagement was a complete waste of time, they only want to point the finger at Apple. Apple support is dragging their feet and even said I should try adjusting Siri settings and installing the latest software...

  18. 2024 Tacoma Sport air dam removal / TRD skid plate soon!

    Did you ever do the TRD skid plate? I see that rough country has one for the Taco but they don't specify body style. Definitely interested in removing the air dam while keeping it protected and not creating a noise while driving.
  19. 10,000-mile update 2024 Tacoma TRD Sport 6MT. No Issues and going strong

    I average 24 in my TRD Sport 6-Speed manual with a few up hill treks in the mountains of SW Virginia. Love knowing I wont replace brakes or rotors for at least 7 years with the downshifting
  20. Apple Car Play: Music volume stays loud when listening to text messages

    Apple has my case, and is providing irrelevant update at this point. I have asked to escalate in hopes of getting more attention. I also have a case open with Toyota Brand Engagement. The person I am working with is nice and has reached out several times, but they really don't get the point of...
