Lack of electronic damping and an LSD on the 2.0 is a fairly important limitation. Read the reviews of both. The 2.0 has a pretty stiff ride; they had to compromise on that without the adjustable suspension. Also, the ZF 8-speed was geared for the 3.0. Most reviewers will state that the 2.0...
We now have several 2021 cars reporting this problem. Pretty widespread. No doubt, Toyota/BMW will be on top of this quickly. My money is on a subscription authorization issue, perhaps associated with the recent OTA updates to iDrive. If it hasn't happened to you yet, it may be your car...
The inverse question is relevant as well. Are there any 2020 owners that have NOT lost CarPlay? Be interesting to know. This is widespread enough to try and collect a bit of additional data, such as model year and build month/year (from your door jam) for the impacted cars.
A quick review of signatures of those that report this issue all show this happening to 2020 Supras. I don't see any 2021 models reporting this. Has anyone had this happe to a 2021? My 2021 is working fine, just confirmed it a few minutes ago.
Well, we now have reports from at least 6 people here that all lost Carplay today. I'm guessing it has to do with the date. 12-1-20. Quite possibly a bug in the authorization code. Carplay is subscription-based, and this is about the only explanation that makes since. Your cars were...
Did you code your car? It's pretty easy to zap things in Expert mode if you're not careful.
Beyond that, there is a menu option somewhere that sets up the comm mode. I think you have to have wifi active for carplay to appear.
At launch, the Supra had two major components that were a generation behind the companion G29/Z4. The big one was the older version of the B58. This was rectified with the 2021 release of the A91.
The other big difference was iDrive 6.0 vs. 7.0. iDrive 7.0 is a major upgrade, with larger...
The 3D printed ports (from the file, above) worked great! As given, the outer diameter is 2.5"; the inner is 2". My 2.5" hole saw was perfect for this.
Great mod, really did clean up the bass very nicely.
Absolutely fantastic writeup here. First rate work and outstanding documentation. Thank you so much.
An alternative to purchasing the 2" bass ports would be to print them if you happen to have a 3D printer (as I do). You'll find many different styles on Thingiverse for bass ports. Here's a...
If the alignment figures given in the article above are accurate (zero rear toe; +2 degress positive camber), then that car is far out of factory spec. Here's the factory spec alignment settings. Weird.
Greetings! New here, old guy. Irresponsibly long story follows.
I appreciate the chance to talk about me and my favorite cars. We just picked up a 2021 3.0 Premium. Great car so far. Why the Supra? Well, glad you asked! Settle in, we're going on a bit of a ride. I retire soon, and have...
In addition to wireless charging, the charge pad contains an localized antenna which is then connected to a repeater (via 4G/LTE frequencies) which further connects to a roof-top external antenna to improve reception. There's a bit of handoff and communication going on to make this happen, its...
Greetings. Just picked up a '21 3.0 Premium. I've had many BMWs over the years and I'm very familiar with iDrive.
Most everything in the Supra is pretty familiar. A few small changes here and there. The one thing I haven't found an answer to is: does XM/Sirius display album art in the Supra...
