We are having the same problem! We have a RX450H and our ipod now stopped working completely! To bad my friend sons car is a 2010 Ford Focus and he can play songs manage his calls and play incoming Text messages for a 395.00 option! Boy did lexus drop the ball... The dealership said they are working on it what load of crap! I am calling them tomorrow and demand they fix it, three trips and its a lemon!

2010 RX 350 - USB iPod Aux Question by rxers

Hi Guys -
 
Just got a 2010 RX 350. It has a USB and a AUX output, but I am not sure what to do with that.
 
#1 - can I use my iPod to connect to this? I know I can via the AUX audio out, but that won't allow me to control the iPod menu.
 
#2 - Whats the USB connection for? Do I use that for my iPod? If so, can I control that? What about USB thumbdrives with MP3s?
 
THanks!

I purchased a 2010 RX 350 last week with 6000 miles on it. I am having the same issue when trying to play an audio book. Has anyone been able to fix this issue? Thanks!

Just curious-how much did you save by purchasing a 2010 with 6000 miles on it over a brand new vehicle?Discount from MSRP that is?

Sorry to say I have had my RX350 since March but have been unable to find a solution. I had some success with certain books but I cannot figure out why those books work and others don't. Unfortunately most of the books don't work properly and always restart when I turn the car off and on.

RX350 2010 IPod Issues by bl8ant1

I have the same issue where the USB screen either goes gray and you cannot hear the doinging sound or it altogether doesn't recognize the device. You have to disconnect and reconnect to fix.
 
1. It happens with both my iPod Touch and IPhone 3GS.
2. I was able to reproduce the issue when I searched by Artist.
3. It reproduced by itself when just playing music.
 
It appears to be a Lexus software issue from my troubleshooting. That is just my opinion, I could be wrong.

I'm just sick about this. After years of frustration trying to listen to audiobooks on my iPod through FM transmitter connected in the cigarette lighter, I debated whether to keep my 2006 RX 330 and go to an auto audio store and have them put in a new iPod capable radio or buy the new 2010 RX 350. I bought the 2010 last week and was so excited. I told the salesman how important the iPod feature is to me. We tried it briefly and I thought it was working but I didn't spend enough time with it.
 
Got the car, put my iPod iTouch on usb and all it will do is start at the beginning of the book. Every time I turn it off and back on, it goes back to the beginning of the book. Every button/control knob on the dash or steering wheel moves to the next or previous book in the list.!!!! ARGH! I wish I'd read here before I bought because I simply would not have bought the car until this was fixed!
 
I bought an aux cable and a cigarette lighter charger with a usb port and am using it though aux but I'm going to have the same problem as before, trying to control the iPod through the iPod while driving! That's as dangerous as texting! The only thing I gained is a dedicated channel to play it on.
