AUX input trouble

I have to turn my factory, non-JBL, head unit to max to get med sound from AUX input. All ready tried swapping patch cords and devices, same problem. Any help?

I asked the dealership and they said they all do that. My 08 Tacoma didn't have an AUX Input, but my 08 RAV4, 05 Carolla S, and 10 Corolla S did and they sounded fine.

My truck is a week old & I have the same BS connection with my Mp3.....have to turn up the head unit to max, just to hear it. These guys all told me it's normal....it sucks!

 

It's not normal on any of my other Toyotas that I have owned, the AUX input performed flawlessly. What's up with the Tacomas?

 

My Corollas were both made in the USA. Only the RAV4 was made in Japan. (I get your Humor)

 

Yup...the one in my Toyota Scion will throw you back in the seat with volume......new headunit with an aux plug is in my near future.....the wife will love that.

 

is a swap from a corolla or scion possible? for cheaper than the aftermarket $50 replacement i mean

 

makes sense, now that I think about it. Seems silly that it's just the little 3.5mm jack or some wires that are the problem. It's inside the head unit.

These threads have popped up before I know that. So OP check them out and there are some options like inline boosters that some are using.

 

If you need to boost the headphone output of your mp3 player check out this thread.

Went ahead and ordered a Pioneer AVIC X930BT. That should take care of the Aux input problem. See my thread http://www.tacomaworld.com/forum/audio-video/172417-just-ordered-pioneer-avic-x930bt.html and give me any tricks that you may know

 

My wifes RAV4 aux input is crap too, but nowhere near as crappy as my Tacoma.
