Hey guys, I just got an 06 IS350. It has some issues but I'm very happy with my purchase!

Anyway, I have the buttons on the steering wheel for bluetooth, and when I start the car the screen will say "Bluetooth connection failed" or something along those lines. I've been searching a little, but I can only find bluetooth setup for 07+. I opened the "INFO" menu and I don't have phone settings there.

It does have an AUX port in the glove box, along with NAV. Is there a trick to it to setting it up? Or does mine simply not have bluetooth?

Also one other thing, I noticed a few threads mentioning ML, mine is NOT a ML unit.

Bluetooth setting should be the same for almost all IS model years. Since i think you've got a pre-owned, maybe you need to delete previous owner's setting and set it up again.

I agree--the car is searching for a phone that has previously been paired with the car, but not finding it. You can delete all data from the nav system, delete any previously paired phones one by one, or you can just pair it as an additional phone without deleting any other info.

I will work just like this.

I believe it's the same, with the same "no phone book" sync with iphone. Also, no A2DP for music. I picked this up for $19 at Walgreens...



Works like a charm for music, and phone/music switch seamlessly. It's rechargeable so no USB in your '06 shouldn't be an issue either. Lasts about 8-10 hours per charge.

What happens when you press the phone button on the steering wheel?

your navi screen will go to phone function, IE. number pads, phone book, speed dial, but once you are in motion only allow to access speed dial.

I know what it's *supposed* to do, and that it locks out when in motion. OP is trying to pair his phone said that hitting the info screen doesn't display a phone icon. So hitting the phone button on the steering wheel *should* pull up the keypad and phone options, enabling him to get to the BT pairing screen. When I said "you" I meant the OP, not the collective CL. I'm assuming OP is not looking to pair a phone while the car is in motion..

I haven't tried it yet. My dad is actually driving the car at the moment, while his car is getting some work done. I'll try it when I stop by his place tonight.

Sorry for the super late reply fellas.

I hit the buttons and they do absolutely nothing....

The phone button on the steering wheel does nothing when you hit it? That can't be good. I wonder if your seller did the nav hack and didn't reconnect a wire properly?

Nothing at all, there's two buttons on the right side on the steering wheel. It shows a picture of the phone, and one with hanging up motion.

On NAV itself, it shows no phone option, but it shows "bluetooth sync fail" or something along those lines. I don't think the NAV hack is still hooked up (if at all?) cause I can't do anything (NAV wise) if the car is in motion.

I shot two videos last night,

The first one shows the bluetooth connection fail, it happens roughly after a minute after I hit "I Agree", it also shows in the menu how I don't have the phone option

This video shows me hitting the phone buttons that do nothing. I did this while stuck in traffic
