    When I listen to a book on tape on from my iPhone 6 (through Bluetooth) a comfortable volume setting is at about 17. For the radio a comforable setting is at about 5. Therefore, when I switch from Bluetooth to radio, the volume on the radio is very loud. I get blasted until I reach over and lower the volume. I have my phone turned to maximum volume when listening to the books. Any suggestions?

    Turn down the volume on your iPhone. Calibrate it until the volume output is eQual to your radio.

    Thanks, but that makes it worse. Decreasing the volume on my phone increases the differences between the volume on my radio and the volume on my phone.

    I guess you just go with the obvious and turn down your volume before you switch to your radio.

    You may be right, but I am going to pursue an answer for a while longer. I am going to call Toyota Customer Service tomorrow. Hopefully, they will be more knowledgeable than the dealer.

    Good luck with that. I contacted them with bluetooth problems after upgrading to entune 5.1 and they were useless. They actually couldn't solve my problem and referred me to make an appointment with the dealership.

    THE Dealership Has NOT Even Contacted Me Yet AND I Already SOLVED My ProbleM through google searches.

    Probably your best bet, a Google search.

    Thanks. You just saved me a call. I will not bother contacting them,
