Surprising if something installed backwards it worked at all. But i'm armed with this latest info when i stop by to discuss with the local dealership service manager tonight. Wonder if they have a new number or whatever, date code, mfg. date, anything that can be referred to when ordering replacement units. They should be asking these questions though, not the customers. But, ya gotta do what ya gotta do anymore.

6 Disc Radio Problems continue

Just browsing thru Consumers Reports. Checking Lexus 07 SUV. And lookie here. Apparently problems continue even in their 07 model. Doesn't give me a warm/fuzzy feeling about to get my 1st replacement 6 disc stereo. Here's text from someone rating their 07 Lexus
I brought the car in April 06. It is now August 06, and I am already replacing the
CD player for a second time. After googling this issue, I find that it is endemic
to Lexus multi-CD players and certain Toyotas, yet Lexus has not done anything to
address the problem (and the dealer acts surprised when you bring it back with this
problem). This seems unacceptable in a car with an MSRP over $46K.

My Acura TSX 2004 has a problem with the display. There is audio from the radio and CD, but there is no clock, radio or heater dispay. Dealer wants to change the radio, at a ridiculous cost. Does anyone know how to fix this problem. Thank you.

I had the same problem with my 2006 RAV 4 radio. The dealer said that he could not fix or diagnose it unless he could see what it was doing. I took pictures of it with a digital camera and spoke to the service manager after getting nowhere with the "master service adviser" that I spoke with at first. It took him a couple of days but he then called me and said that he was ordering a new display screen for my car. You have to make a little noise or you might get stuck with it after the warranty is expired.

Surprised when i got your message. August 06 when i got replacement stereo. Anyway, it's been great till past few weeks. A few times while playing fine, screen is blank. If i hit am or fm then back to cd for example, it comes back on. It's happened a couple times now. Car runs great, but this stereo display thing my only complaint with the RAV4. I did have a hesitation glitch but after they performed fix based on TSB, it's fine now. I'll at least call dealership to log complaint on current stereo, blank screen etc. for future reference during next visit.

LCD display problem

My display would intermittently display an H followed by 12 indistinct figures which looked as if all of the characters were attempting to display at one time. After a trip to the dealer in which case it did not display this problem. I called the service manager and insisted that there was a problem and that I wanted it fixed while still in warranty. He finally called his technical support organization and called me and said that he had ordrered a new display for my radio.

Was your hesitation problem at low speed or higher speed? When slowing down for a turn and then accelerating coming out of the turn I see my RPM go up a little and then feel the car surge forward. It seems to happen between gears 1 & 2 possibly.

My stereo on my Rav has done this twice. Dealer doesn't seem very interested as it hasn't happened in front of them. Service is not Toyota's specialty!

The hesitation was at low speeds, slowing then accelerating for example a red light that turns green. Car whatever went wacko. as though no power. Also in passing, low speeds jumping out to pass....nothing for a second of 2..... scary. But since TCB was performed it's run flawless.

Mine went blank, blinked, and had strange symbols etc. I reported this, screen printed pics from web others had (same symbols i showed), and gave this to dealership. They acted dumb, as they never heard of it. While talking to supervisor one of their mechanics walked in. Overheard us. Said, yeah that problems hapening with alot of these radios. Probably inserted his foot in mouth and got in heat later. Anyway, they ordered a new one. And no problems till just recently. Noticed a couple times playing fine, but screen blank. touched another button cd or fm or whatever and back and it reappeared. So who knows.
