OK well my baby is gone. The dealer promised to reset it but I have my doubts since this is the dealer I had bought it from and when I got it, the previous owner info was in there!
Who knows I might buy another- but I really want a manual-shift removable hardtop next time..
Chow!
I watched a BMW video that showed a menu item somewhere under settings, where they had an option for RESTORE FACTORY SETTINGS..
I spent about 10 minutes today in my Supra menus and didn't find any option like that.
Dang the luck!
Sadly, my buyer is supposed to show up tomorrow (I half-hope he's a no show, but these payments are over-whelming).
I want erase everything- contacts, phones, greeting name, destinations, recent nav, stored locations, maps, favorites, internal-disk music library, settings, etc..
I searched...
OK, I finally got into service at the dealer. It was sorta a non-event, but as-promised , here are the results.
I gave them the jpg images of the dash fault, so they knew what had happened. They could not replicate it, which didn't surprise me as it only happened once in 3,000 miles.
They...
My Tesla-driving told me I could get an online trade-in quote for my Supra GR, for a Tesla (not that I'd DO that, I'm not going from perfect body design to fugly! ..but I was curious). So I carefully filled out their online form.
He also said you get ONE shot, can't resubmit the same VIN, and...
no, no warnings of any sort. I don't think it went into any odd modes; aiside from the wacky gauges everything else seemed normal.
I'll check battery tonight. After shutting the car off and back on things came back to normal but this was disconcerting!
Did I press a button or something? I'm driving yesterday, glance down to check gauges, and the only things on are temp, gas, and a green lane indicator on the left. The heads up display is normal. I did notice some of the numbers on the tach were on as well.
Did I go into some weird display...
I'm considering replacing the stock subs with these:

But they need about 3" clearance below. I was also thinking that if not enough clearance, perhaps I could top-mount them on a circular wooden pedestal high...
Actually, yes. I noticed that often my latch would just buzz, but not open. Sometimes after 3-4 attempts it finally did. At my 1 year service I asked the dealer to fix it. They said the same thing- that the emergency release cable was somehow entangled in the latch. They said they untangled it...
My music collection is in Windows. I have windows playlist files (wpl). I added them to a USB stick. I can play the mp3 songs ok- however , when try to import into the car's internal drive I get an error saying no files found.
Is ITUNES the only recognized format? If I do manage to convert wpl...
I know right? He took time to document an entire technical manual. I'm ready to get started. There are lots of things I like about my Supra but sound sure ain't one!

This writeup was awesome; I ordered all the items today. I wasn't really sure where you got the grille parts that you cut out (the squares with 2-sided tape?) . Did you have some old ones you used?
As far as speaker replacements- I see some posts here calling them a "sealed system". Does...
