    Is there any way to sync all my contacts from my IPhone 4S to my 2012 Tacoma? Some one told me that my truck doesn't support PBAP (Phone Book Access Profile) [​IMG]

    Have you tried exporting the iPhone contact entries to a USB stick and then importing the contact entries manually via a USB port to the car and the flash?

    After reading through the owner's manual, it looks like the iPhone and Tacoma don't communicate via BT in the way that Blackberry, Android, etc. do and, therefore, will not sync contacts. If you try that suggestion that Torino gave, let me know if it works. I think that it's merely a matter of the communication type between the two devices which is limiting.

    My Iphone is paired with my bluetooth so I think I will probably just use Siri. I can't believe that Toyota would not design their bluetooth setup to mesh with an IPhone, unbelievable:confused:
