There may be several reasons why there is no sound when playing music via Bluetooth in a Lexus: 1. Volume not turned on: The volume on the car navigation system or the phone is not turned on, simply turn it on. 2. Incompatible pairing: Some phones (e.g., iPhone) have music playback programming that is incompatible with the pairing codes of certain car models, so you can only answer calls but not listen to music. You need to change the Bluetooth playback frequency band. 3. Music not enabled: The multimedia music feature of the car's Bluetooth is not enabled, you need to set it to turn on. 4. Signal interference: The media audio on the phone is not turned off, causing signal interference with the Bluetooth function.

I remember being quite anxious when I encountered this situation last time. Don't panic first, it's most likely a minor issue. In my years of driving a Lexus, I've found that Bluetooth audio issues usually boil down to just a few reasons: either your phone volume is off or muted – try turning your phone volume to maximum; the infotainment system's media volume might have been accidentally turned off – try rotating the volume wheel on the right side of the steering wheel; also, after Bluetooth connection is established, you need to manually select the audio output mode by tapping Multimedia-Bluetooth Audio on the center display. If it still doesn't work, try turning off your phone's Bluetooth and reconnecting, or reboot the infotainment system by long-pressing the volume knob for 15 seconds. The technician at the 4S dealership mentioned during my last maintenance that this model occasionally experiences software conflicts – if nothing works, simply press the call button to let customer service remotely reboot the system. Lexus's remote assistance service is really convenient.

How to resolve the EPC light on the car dashboard?

When the EPC light appears on the car dashboard, it indicates an issue with the engine's power control management system. Generally, there are two possible reasons for the EPC light to illuminate. One is a dirty throttle body, which should be cleaned. The other possibility is malfunctioning brake lights, requiring inspection of the brake switch and wiring. Additionally, poor fuel quality can also trigger the EPC warning light. Solutions for the EPC light issue are as follows: 1. Troubleshoot the intake system, use compliant fuel, and clean the throttle body; 2. Remove carbon deposits from relevant components; 3. Reflash ECU-related data; 4. Other faults may also cause this issue, so specific diagnosis should be based on reading fault codes.

In which year was the Mercedes-Benz GLB produced?

Mercedes-Benz GLB was produced in 2019. Powertrain: The Mercedes-Benz GLB is equipped with a 1.3T turbocharged engine, which delivers a maximum power of 120kW and a peak torque of 250Nm. Engine performance: Under no-load conditions, the vehicle's power output is sufficient for use. However, when fully loaded, the power performance becomes somewhat strained, given that this is a seven-seater SUV. The engine features cylinder deactivation technology and employs a triangular cross-section cylinder head design. During actual testing, this engine's maximum torque plateau was observed between 1620-4000 rpm, indicating that the engine's torque output is particularly strong in the low-to-mid speed range.
