2010 Bluetooth Problems
I have a 2010 GX460 that the radio was possesed in. It would cycle through all the modes and shut off and such. So i got a 2013 head unit off ebay. So far no shuffling but im haveing some bluetooth issues. My wife has an iphone 12 and it is paired. When she is playin off apple music it will stop playing audio yet the track is still showing playing via the seconds. It will revert back a couple seconds and do it all over again. Pretty annoying. Ive already "forgot" both the phone and the lexus and repaired. It still did it after that. I have not troubleshot yet by adding my phone and trying it. Any thoughts?

mine started out only when hot outside then moved to when it was cold also. i will much rather give up teh blue tooth for a radio that stays on. the radio does not get any better and only declines with the cycling. mine would try and spit out cds also. lexus said they could not duplicate and it would do it as i was driving home from teh dealer. i guess they should have left it in the bay to heat up nicly.

Is the BT only happening with Apple Music? Do you have any other songs on the phone that can play and check? How about Youtube? Can you play it via youtube or other radio apps? Are you on IOS 15 by chance?

ML crazy radio problems
I have a 2010 premium with ML sound. Same thing has happened to me at least 2 times. I notice it happens when it is really hot outside. I'm in Houston, so we frequently have those days when it gets super hot. When I turn the car on, the radio will spit out any dvd/CD it has and then seems to go back to normal.
$9,000 is absurd for the radio. I don't know why this system is so different than the older ML system in the 470. The 470 system was the best OEM sound systems I've ever heard. Deep rich base w/o being muddy and the high's her not tinny....I find the new 460 ML upgrade laughable. Its void of any depth at all, especially when you use satellite. Plus the sound seems so concentrated in the front center. Ive never heard the base sound system, but hate to hear what thats like.

2010 GX460 - BT hangs up after dialing
Hey folks, just wondering if anyone else had this issue - when using SIRI to voice dial, it will call out, link to bluetooth in the GX, and then immediately hang up.

Do you have other BT devices to test against? Portable speakers? Headphones or earphones? As far as I know, BT doesn't send signals to devices like 'hang up'. For example, if a device were to be disconnected via BT, the music or call resumes on the phone or pauses, depending on the behavior set for a particular app or OS for such an event. I would check your phone's settings first like for BT or if using Android Auto, then AA's settings, or try to replicate the issue with another BT device.

Same here with 2011. My iPhone is only a year old and updated but if for example I say Siri call home it initiates the call shows up on Nav screen and then disconnects. Kind of frustrating

Have tried pressing the mode button on steering wheel with no result. Also have pressed and held power/vol button for 30 seconds with no result. In both cases audio display just has "audio off" message.
