I bought the car used and Bluetooth sounded awesome when I first got it. Then something changed (not sure what) and Bluetooth didn't sound so good. Thats when I decided to change the sensitivity and it thankfully fixed the issue.

Sorry to come back to this old post.
Did you come by settings for the easy entry steering wheel retraction?
I would like to disable that feature in my LS430, and will not be visiting the dealer for some time.
I am curious to what other screens you found!

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Does anyone know if the bluetooth mic can be adjusted if you don't have a nav system? It would be most appreciated. I posted this question 9 months ago in this thread but nobody answered... I assume the hardware is the same but the method to do it is different. Anybody? And yes I asked the dealership and they are incompetent douchwillows that directed me to the user manual. lol

It's not possible on non-navs unfortunately.

If you adjust the sensitivity won't that just add more road noise to the person on the other end of the phone.

first hold the "info" button (I did it for about 5 secs) then switch your parking light switch from off-to parking lights-repeatedly while still holding the info button....it takes about 5-6 cycles...an poof the NAV screen enter yet another Service menu. From there I navigated to a bluetooth menu where I was able to adjust the Microphone volume higher so that people can hear me better!

....if anyone else discover more easter eggs PLEASE do share....!
worked like a champ! thanks!

Default 2011 IS350 F-Sport Mic sounds far away

I can hear the calls as well as expected in my car. I do not have the ML system. However, people have said they think I am a mile from the mic. They say it is clear, just sounds far away. I am using a iPhone 4S.
My service screen that everyone has talked about sounds to be different. The Mic setting does not give me any way to adjust it...or maybe I am a half-tard and am missing something.

Also, does anyone else not like the Satellite user interface. it is kind of a pain to scroll the types of music. I am not sure if there is anything else out there that may offer a better user interface.
