Hey guys. Recently posted about my radio unit failing. Saw some helpful solutions on trying to reboot the system but nothing. I have a 2014 IS250 with the common issue of the radio unit failing. My radio unit is P10433. Barely finding my exact radio and I seen maybe 2 for sale going for 1500+. Is there any place online that could be selling for cheaper? Would there be a point in going to the dealership?

well if you are STILL under Warranty, yes, take it in! i would also look up any other TSB type fixes that is covered


for used, https://www.car-part.com/ is going to be your Best Bet

if its your first time using...https://www.car-part.com/cgi-bin/sea...erPage=1&iKey=

cheapest for your specific Model, that actually works, doesn't got a bunch of scratches, dents, etc. is still $1,000



you can also try: https://www.searchtempest.com/ - its like searching ALL of Craigslist on one site....maybe someone in another state has one and is selling it cheaper than Car-Part



best of luck and hope this helps

Sadly no, I bought the car in 2018 from private owner. Would it Be possible to get some sort of different Face ID radio and still play music? The last thing I would want to do is spend that much money on a radio.
