Got the AUX TSIB done last week, sounds great I had been using a ground loop isolator one can get from any electronic store, which worked well but was another set of wires I had to deal with, but not anymore. Only thing was they kept my car an additional day and they said they forgot to order an addditional part. Ah what? Well the car sounds great only thing that worries me is that I found a broken plastic peice on my seat when I got home. Was that the part that they had to order? They probably broke something. But checked for anything loose or any rattling and none so far. (knock on wood).
Good info Ben!

I just called and scheduled as I also use a sirius tuner in the console and the whine is so annoying. The dealer didn't have any of the parts in stock so they ordered them for me and will call once they arrive so I can get it fixed. This was the biggest complaint I've had about the car so far.

Well, there are a few ways:
- Regularly call the dealer and ask them to check
- Pay $10 for a day and a half at TIS and search and check for them yourself
- And finally the best way: Read CL as often as you can and sit here and chat with all of us and together as a group we will keep all informed of the important things (which include much more than TSIBs, for example all of llamas jokes!)

I just got it done this weekend...
And the sound quality from the aux input is now extraordinary!
The ringing tone is gone whenever I use an iPod or my XM radio unit. The quality of music is more "pure" with less distortion. Definately was a huge difference.
I highly recommend getting it done if you're a music afficionado!!

So I got this TSIB done and I am pretty sure there is no more sound distortion. My ipod charger is a POS (does not sit in plug properly, doesn't charge), so I wanna get a new one. I like the Belkin with the line out which would reduce my clutter down to one cord. Anyone with the TSIB done have any better recommendations for a one cord system?

For all those who have noticed the electrical noise issue when running audio through the aux audio input, as of August 10th, 2007 there is officially a TSIB to fix it! Looks like they are putting an in-line filter in to clear that issue up. This fix is for the '06-'07 IS250/IS350, the '07 ES350, and the '07 LS460. It is TSIB #L-AU001-07 NOISE FROM AUXILIARY PORT WITH EXTERNAL DEVICE
