Default Blue tooth issue with hearing through speakers

I have bluetooth and it usually works fine. i am currently experiencing, and have had this once before, a malfunction in part of the functionality. the phone connects to the car and when the phone rings the radio cuts out and the screen shows that a call is coming in, but i don't hear anything over the speakers. i have to pick my phone up and talk in order to hear and the caller can't hear me over the car reciever. the 1st time it happened it lasted for a couple weeks and then as mysteriously as it stopped, it worked fine again.

any ideas? my maintenance light is on because of 30k miles. could this be connected. i can't remember if last time i needed an oil change and waited awhile if the phone cut off.

thanks,
kevin

umm. my RX350 has that distortion sound for when I talk on the phone...

but my VIN# is 2T2HK31U88CXXXXXX

does that mean the fix is not for me?
