  1. I know it's definitely retro-fitted as when I took it to Lexus, they were going to order a new part, and when they entered the number plate in to the system they said this model is not meant to have the multimedia pack. Plus where the reverse parking camera is, you can tell it's definitely been fitted later. Where can I find the LP2 connector?
  2. Yes, tried that, but it was actually from a car supermarket and they refused to take the car back. Got some money refunded. It seems like a very professional job whoever did it. Even when it was taken to Lexus dealer they didn't realise it was retrofitted. Satnav audio cannot be too difficult to fix can it?
  3. I post here really hoping someone can help! I bought a UK 2007 Lexus IS 220d with what I thought was the multimedia package. After further investigation, it seems the entire multimedia package is retro-fitted. It is the stock Lexus multimedia kit, but seems like it's not been fitted by Lexus themselves. So what works? DVD works fine - video and audio. Reverse parking camera works fine. CD changer works fine, radio, auxiliary input from MP3 player all work fine. My problems are with the SatNav and bluetooth. SatNav - the maps display fine, GPS is fine. But I get no audio from it. I get no speech directions, so I have to keep looking at the screen. I've reset all the options and made sure the volume for directions is set to max. But I get nothing. If I'm playing some sort of audio (e.g. radio) when the SatNav should give me a direction, the radio audio does dim a little, in anticipation for the direction, but nothing comes through. Bluetooth is the second problem. My phone connects to the system fine. But when I receive a call, the speakers do not play the voice from the phone. Neither does the system pick up my voice for voicecontrol. Now, I'm guessing I won't be able to fix bluetooth/voice control as perhaps whoever retrofitted the system didn't install a mic (although I should still be able to hear the voice of the other person?). And I guess that's not a biggy. But I REALLY want to fix satnav audio. I've taken it to two Lexus dealers and neither are ready to touch it. I've taken it to two audio garages and they didn't want anything to do with it either. Is there anyone who could help me?
