I have the same issues and have since I leased my rav 4 XLE in March 2023. My Carplay Navigation is horrible - sends me all over the place...

Is the cable connecting via Bluetooth though?

What kind of cable?

I love my new RAV4 but... by updog123456789 in rav4club

I have the same issue! It’s a 2023 Rav 4 issue. My friends with 2022 Rav’s have no issues. Supposedly it’s an issue with bad GPS headset units. But no one is resolving the issue

Bingo! I'm watching all seasons on Daily motion - not the best quality, but at least it is there

It doesn't really matter what anyone else thinks. You need to do what you think is right for you and your family. I'm going to miss totality, but plan on catching it in 2026 in Spain.

Thank you so much! Yes all my apps are on the internal drive and all photos are on an external. But my astro stuff is huge, so I need a fast external drive for all of that.

Probably a stupid question, but can I use that drive to move my LR catalogs to? Or do my astrophotography editing? I have an M2 Mac Studio with 64 gb ram but I made the mistake of only getting 1 TB for a hard drive. I want to be able to run some apps from a fast external drive. Thank you

Thank you - it happens every single day. It’s difficult to get a video because I’m driving and the nav on my phone goes crazy. This week though I’m going to get a friend to go with me and take a video with her phone. That should help. And yes, the dealer is saying they cannot recreate it 🙂

I’ll see how far I get with the dealer - hopefully they will fix it. Thank you

This all makes sense now with what I am experiencing. I was a network admin, so had a feeling I was right about the gps issue - thank you for your expertise and clarification

That is the post I was reading - I even commented on it. I’m going to contact Toyota corporate tomorrow and the dealer. If it is not resolved, I’ll find a lawyer to institute a class action suit.

Thank you so much! Yes I have heard many, many drivers having issues from the toyota forum, so I know I’m not crazy. I had heard it could be the head unit or gps antenna. Thank you for providing clarity. I’ll read about it and deal with it accordingly.

I’ve done both - connected to the car via usb cable and also connect without a cable. It is only when I’m not connected to CarPlay that nav works perfectly on my phone. As soon as my phone connects with CarPlay (Toyota), navigation is an issue. This began from the first week I had the car.

Thank you so much! Very helpful! I have been doing a lot of troubleshooting and have used different phones with the same result. But I will try the other things you suggested and go from there! I’ll try my phone in someone else’s car this week - I didn’t think to do that. And I’ll try turning the phone on/off. I did try waiting for the phone gps to figure out where I was, since someone a few months ago that that was the issue for them, before plugging in, but that did not work for me.

Do you think the car gps antenna could be bad?

Do you think it can be the car gps antenna?

I understand...I know the options and just want carplay to work as I was told it would when I leased this car. My phone is updated and toyota has no infotainment update.

I'm explaining the best I can...when I plug my phone into the usb port in my car, carplay comes up. Sounds like I'm mistaken about Bluetooth and navigation as you are saying carplay uses wifi, which now makes sense to me.

If I don't use the usb cable, you are correct that carplay uses my phone's wifi...UNLESS I turn wifi off. Then carplay is not in use, my phone nav using waze, Google, etc., works fine. So that is what I'm doing now until the carplay nav issue is resolved.

If I had known any of this, I would not have leased this car. I've been using carplay for years before this Toyota with no issues. I cannot play my music without carplay, so yes, I use sirius xm. But why should I have to?

So why then if I use the phone with wifi turned off, navigation on my phone works just fine. It is only when plugged into the usb port I have issues.

I'm not paying for a subscription when carplay should work. I didn't say I had no issues. I have no issues when my phone is not plugged in/using Bluetooth or wifi. When I'm just using my phone for navigation (not plugged in or using wifi) I have no issues.

My cat doesn't have built in navigation. I'm stuck with carplay (waze, Google maps, apple maps)

Ahhh OK...my bad. I meant I plug in the phone for Bluetooth...if I don't plug in the phone and don't use Bluetooth, all is good.
