Toyota Touch 2

The Toyota Touch 2 system is the latest generation of our basic multimedia system and features some important upgrades.

At the core of improvements are redesigned screens with a deeper, 3D effect for graphics. Image resolution has been improved too, meaning the screen is brighter and images are sharper.

On-screen menus have been redesigned to incorporate key vehicle information including fuel economy and DAB radio function (where available). What’s more, the screen now supports ‘drag and flick’ control for easy, intuitive operation.

Toyota Touch 2 with Go

The Toyota Touch 2 with Go system takes all of the basic function of the Touch 2 device and adds a versatile and detailed satellite navigation system.

As well as offering simple-to-use navigation functions, the system also allows users to tailor the information on offer, to include customisable speed limits, speed camera warnings, automatic zoom, motorway signposting and motorway junction views. The map zoom function is controlled by a simple rotary button at the side of the device.

Advanced traffic coverage, now located on the map itself, takes the form of a ‘traffic bar’ showing the driver any congestion ahead, and how long a delay to expect.

Via the Toyota Online function, the system offers on-board connectivity to an expanded range of services including Toyota Real-Time Traffic powered by TomTom, Google Street View and Panoramio, and Google Local Search –the largest and most up-to-date search database in the world.

The MyToyota customer portal also allows users to plan their journeys online. Destinations can be input remotely from home or office via Google Maps, and Points of Interest (POI) may be downloaded for entry as destinations.

Toyota Online content includes a Touch 2 with Go Apps function which offers several applications, including fuel prices, weather and parking space information.

This smart music recognition system can automatically provide playlist recommendations to suit your mood; a safe and easy way to manage music on the move.

Touch 2 with Go Plus supports Wi-Fi connectivity. Users set up their smartphones as a Wi-Fi hotspot for connection to the system’s online functions.

  1. Hi Emre
    Thanks for your post.
    We have run this past our technical team, they have advised that the iPhone is not compatible with MirrorLink and they recommend that you double check your LG phone on the phone compatibility list with Mirrorlink.
    Hope this helps for now.

    1. Thank you for your reply, how can i check whether my multimedia system is touch2 or not?.device id is not 16 digit?, is it possible to upgrade the device (firmware or software) to use internet?
      Any integration over bluetooth connectivity or usb cable to access internet? .Since touch2 compatible with smart phones and can access internet via using smart phone’s connection sharing ability(bluetooth, miracast, hotspot etc)

      1. Hi Emre
        Thanks for your reply.
        Probably the easiest way to see if you have Touch & Go or Touch 2 is to see if you can move the screen with your finger. You will be able to slide the map from side to side. If you can then this would mean you have Touch 2. The systems are not compatible unfortunately so it would not be possible to upgrade Touch & Go to Touch 2. Have you registered your system on https://customerportal.toyota-europe.com/login/index.html ? You can set up an account online and also check out map updates. We are not sure if you are in the UK or another European country but just click on the the flag of your country of origin.
        Hope this helps and any problems give us a shout.

      2. İ will test the screen but as you may know touch2 systems have map/navigation button but no support for navigation.
        my question is: is it possible to upgrade touch2 system using firmware or software to support ne features.
        Since i have registered my car usin portal but can not register touch2 system since having an “device id is wrong” error while registering.

      3. Hi Emre
        If you are having problems checking the device ID do check carefully between 0 and O (numerals and letters). Also a device id consists of 26 characters. If you do have Touch 2 and can tether your mobile phone to the internet then it would be possible to send the device is from the car to your customer portal from the car. As a rule map updates are released twice a year and these can sometimes include software updates. If you have a local dealer nearby they could help identify whether there are later upgrades for you.
        Let us know.

      4. Hello,
        on my device screen software is 010177 and device id is :13TFDAEU-DA00.
        how can i be sure the device is touch2 or not?. The seller said that this is the touch2 device. but i can not register on customer portal.

  2. Hi Emre
    Thanks for your further post.
    We have run this information past our technical team but unfortunately they do not recognise the device id you have quoted. It should be 26 digits. Which model Toyota do you have and how old is the car?

  3. Thank you for answer but I don’t know how to find RELEVANT APPLICATION. I tried for android (Lenovo) and also for windows (Nokia Lumia) but no success 🙁

    1. Hi VK
      Thanks for your post.
      If you are using Mirrorlink with Touch 2 then only the Samsung Galaxy Note II and S3 and a number of Nokia Symbian Belle handsets are compatible with this. It may be worth checking this further with your phone provider about this feature.
      Hope this helps but let us know if you have any other questions.

  4. I have this exact same problem. I am loving the Yaris (i got a new one back in October), but i keep getting issues with the DAB radio. At first it kept loosing all of the stations in the station list (i.e. there was only 1 station i could choose to listen to) but then after about a week it would fix itself to show all available stations and then later the problem would start again. I rencently got the ‘nav’ option installed, and since then ive been geting the scrollign text display issue just as Steve described. Not sure if this is considence or just another glitch in the DAB radio that noone seems to know how to fix?

    Please let me know if there is a fix for either of these issues this is geting EXTREEMLY frustraiting.

  5. Hi Pomplemoose
    Thanks for your post.
    Sorry to hear of your problem with the DAB and we have had a quick chat with our technical team. They have asked whether this occurs when you change the DAB channel (button in the screen on the top right). If not try changing the channel and let us know how you get on.

  6. Hi Carmine
    Thanks for your post. Just waiting for our product team to confirm and will reply again as soon as we know.

  7. Hello Carmine
    Further to our reply we can confirm that Touch 2 with Go Plus is now available at your local Toyota dealer and features include full map navigation (with free upgrades for three years), advanced Bluetooth connectivity and facility to use voice recognition button on the steering wheel. Cost is £1,299 including VAT and fitting. If you need any further help please let us know.

  8. Hi just bought a new Yaris Hybrid last week
    I have the touch 2 with go and would like to know being a new car how come it doesn’t support Mirrorlink version 1.1 from what I can see it only supports Mirrorlink 1.0 being a new car and new model I would have expected to be compatible with the latest phones that are out at the time of release any reason for this
    will there be any type of update/download to support Mirrorlink 1.1 as a new car why does it only support 3 year old tec Mirrorlink 1.0 supported phones are at least 3 year old phones

  9. Hi
    Thanks for your post.
    The Toyota Touch 2 system does support Mirrorlink however compatibility will depend on the handset being used phone being used as not all will support the system. We would recommend that you check this with your phone provider as additional software may also require downloading as well as additional leads in some cases. You can check out phone compatibility here. http://www.toyota-europe.com/service-and-accessories/my-toyota/bluetooth-compatibility.json or the Mirrorlink website. http://www.mirrorlink.com/
    Hope this helps.

  10. I’ve done that and it stays the same. At the moment (as of yesterday) all of the stations are back but the text isn’t showing in full to say which song is on even though it was working a day or so ago. I don’t understand how it keeps glitching even though nothing is changing….

    1. Hi Pomplemoose
      Thanks for your post.
      Our technical team have been looking at intermittent scrolling of text but at this stage they are having to check whether it is the car or whether it is due the DAB signal being affected to the car. Can we ask which radio station you listen to? We are assuming you will see scrolling some days and not on others.
