Northside Lexus Brake Hold & Automatic Parking Brake Tutorial - Tech Tip Tuesday: / 3nepyxmtnm
FYI: Some of you may know this, but many do not. Your 2021 GX may have the ability to remotely start by pressing Lock, Lock, Lock (hold it). You'll see the parking lights flash each time you press unlock on the remote. On the 3rd time you press the lock button, you'll hold it until the parking lights begin to flash several times, and then the engine will start. It will run for 10-15 minutes or until you open a door. Works great on my 2021 Premium Plus on cold Chicago mornings! 😉👍
Thanks for spreading the knowledge. I try to include that in my newer videos, since it seems to be a little known feature, but when people know they have it, they love it! Thanks very much for being here!
As a new owner of a 2021 GX 460, I want to thank you for the video.
Congratulations on your 2021 GX! That's awesome! Thanks so much for tuning in!
Just bought a 2021 GX, your tutorial was super helpful. Saved me from reading the manual…thank you very much.
Awesome to hear! Congrats on your new GX! Enjoy and let me know if you have any questions. I'm happy to help :)
Thank you sooo much for taking the time to make this video!!
I appreciate your kind words! Knowing that the tutorial was helpful to you makes creating content worthwhile. Thanks very much for your support!
Very helpful, so much better than so many salesman reviews available on RUclips.
Thanks so much, @ E M! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video!
You are very knowledgeable about the Lexus brand! I learned a lot about my Lexus. Thanks for posting.
Thanks so much, Peter! I was just answering a question for another viewer for this vehicle and realized that the information about 3-Zone for the climate system, was inadvertently left out of the final edit of the video. Here's the info if you need it for your GX: 3 Zone means you have a 3rd controllable climate zone for the rear cabin.
Zone 1: Driver's Area
Zone 2: Front Passenger Area
Zone 3: Rear Passenger Area
If a passenger temperature is adjusted (from the front passenger or the back controls), then 3-Zone is activated and it will let all of the selectable temperatures operate separately. So you can have 3 temperatures chosen. When you turn 3-Zone off, by clicking on it, then all of the temperatures will sync up with the Driver's selected temperature.
I'm sorry I seem to have missed that in the video. I do apologize for the oversite. All the best!
Sorry to be off topic but does anybody know of a tool to log back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb lost the login password. I love any help you can give me
@Dane Bronson instablaster =)
@Elijah Owen i really appreciate your reply. I found the site through google and Im in the hacking process atm.
Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Elijah Owen it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy!
Thanks so much you saved my account !
Excellent I learned so much. Cool tips were so helpful. Well worth the time to watch.
Thanks so much, Kathy! I'm so glad it was helpful for you!
Excellent tutorial!!
I'm so glad you liked it! Thanks very much for tuning in with me!
Thank you very much for this thorough and informative video.
So glad it was helpful! Thanks very much for tuning in!
Thank you for the super helpful tutorial!
You're very welcome! Happy to help! Thanks for tuning in with us!
Would love to hear FULL details on how to use the 4-wheel drive FULL features and capabilities! Overall, excellent review!
Hey B K! I would love to get the opportunity to make a video about the off road capabilities of the GX. I'll have to see if I can make that happen. It's on my wish list now for sure! Thanks so much for tuning in!
The DAC will only work when 4lo is engaged.
I got my go this was so helpful especially how to get to the 3rd row. Thank you so much.
So glad to help! Thanks very much for tuning in!
@@NorthsideLexus thanks for the help!😊
Wow just what I needed thanks very well made…..
Thanks so much, Alex! So glad you're here!
I’m looking forward to seeing your 2022 GX 460 review. Cheers!
Thanks so much, Enrique! I have been working away on it for weeks. Trying to get it finished for everyone asap. Thanks for hanging in there with me.
No worries, thanks again.
The 2022 GX Deep Dive Tutorial is finally here: ruclips.net/video/bgr7s5_O-hw/видео.html Thanks for your patience :)
The Most patient detail vehicle reviewer online . 😁🤣. Good for me to listen and practice my English with my AirPod in my ears so I’m fine 😄
That's awesome! Thanks for making me smile and thanks for tuning in!
@@NorthsideLexus 😄✌️. And I’m buying a GX460 . Been struggling between this car and GLS 450 for a month.
@@FreelikeaBird999 That's an awesome problem to have! LOL! Since I've been with Lexus for almost 22 years, you know I'm happy that you chose the GX! Let me know if you have any questions when you get it. :)
@@NorthsideLexus thank so much. I can imagine the good quality customer service that Lexus can provide just though you 😀
As an owner of a 2016 GX460 I'd like to thank Lexus for saving me the envy of newer model as the 2021 is exactly the same! For 2021 owners I'm sorry you guys paid over 60k to get the same features that my 2016 has and probably what the 2010 Lexus had. 2021 still has no sync button for the climate control like literally every other vehicle out there even Toyotas and Lexus! Still gotta dig through the menus. At least you get auto high beam! I wish I was exaggerating, look up a 2010 lexus GX460 video, it's the same. They've kept the interior the same for 11 years. Yes keep the hardware same for reliability but could have made some adjustment for suckers shelling out close to 70k for 11 year old tech.
You are so right, Daniel. The GX has been long over due for an update in my opinion as well. Lexus is making some great technology changes for the 2022 model that should be in showrooms this Fall. It will not have the Gen 12 Lexus Interface system that is premiering on the 2022 NX, but it seems like it will be like the 2021 RX Gen 11 system. Major improvement, just long over due. Thanks for watching.
Looking forward to 2022 GX tutorial! :)
Thanks so much! It is coming soon! I have been working on it for the past few weeks and hope to have it here for you asap! Thanks so much for your support!
@@NorthsideLexus awesome, we appreciate all you do!
The 2022 GX Deep Dive Tutorial is finally here: ruclips.net/video/bgr7s5_O-hw/видео.html Thanks for your patience :)
@@NorthsideLexus awesome! 😍🙏🏽
Just bought a 2021 GX.
Congratulations on your new GX! Glad you're tuning in with us to learn all about it!
Thank you for these valuable information
Best regards
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for watching!
Thanks for a great tutorial!
You're very welcome! So glad it was helpful!
Great vid!
Thanks so much, Larry! So glad you liked the video. Thanks for tuning in!
Great videoMelissa, one question is there a package where I can have the outside side mirrors collapse automatically? I had that in myRX and loved it.TY
Thanks so much, Mary! Unfortunately on the GX, we don't seem to have that option for "Auto" Folding Side Mirrors right now. They are adding the "Power-folding outside mirrors (starting with October 2020 production)" on the Premium Package, but they still don't Auto fold. I believe that feature may be on the GX in some other countries. Hopefully it will be added to the GX on the next redesign. All the best!
Excellent
Thank you so much 😀
Very helpful contents
Thanks so much, Kenneth! Glad it was helpful for you. :)
Brilliant tutorial video. We intend to purchase a 2022 GX 460, I hope you’ll prepare one for that one as well or at least whatever changed may have been implemented. Thanks again.
That's wonderful! Yes, my plan is to continue making the short Tech Tip videos and the Full Tutorials for most models. As in person work has gotten busier I am not able to produce the content at the pace I was before, but I will keep working on it for everyone! I think there are a lot of changes planned for the 2022 GX so it should exciting! Thanks so much for tuning in!
I thought the 2023 GX was going to be the newly revised model? Isn’t the 2022 going to be the final run of the current model with the V8? Thanks.
@@enriquecarrillo3909 2023 is supposed to be the full redesign, but I had heard some talk of a minor refresh with some technology updates for the 2022. I'll do some digging and see if I can learn anything new. They may be keeping a lid on it either way. Tech changes are long over due so people will be happy if they happen, but unhappy if they don't. But you're correct, no major changes until 2023. I'll let you know if I find out anything that can be shared!
Thank you so much I greatly appreciate it. I’m hoping the final GX 460 will have the all speed intuitive cruise control, emergency back up braking and all LEDs in side and out. Please do let me know. Thanks so much for looking into this for me.
I understand the 2022 will have the larger 10.3 inch infotainment screen as well as Apple CarPlay and AA. That’s a huge upgrade. We’ll be ordering a 2022 Luxury model. I look forward to tour video and that more updated model. Thanks again.
Great, thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for tuning in!
Thank you for this
So happy to help! Thanks very much for watching! 😊
@@NorthsideLexus I got the 2022 version and I still learned quite alot from this video I'm forever thankful
Thanks Melissa, this is really great, i just got my GX last week and your help video has really shown me a lot of cool features on it. Does it automatically break before a collision? Thanks
Congrats on your new GX, @Obed! The 2021 GX does have a PCS (Pre Collision System) on board. There are a lot of details and parameters to be aware of to understand how and when it operates. Maker sure to read that section of your Owner's Manual to learn more about it. It is am amazing system and is designed to mitigate an accident. It should not be used to avoid all collisions. There is not a system out there that can do that yet. Maybe one day :)
Thanks for a wonderful tutorial, but can you tell me if you can fold the mirror automatically
Hi! Thanks for being here! If you see the selection for "auto" on the side mirror controls then your GX will have that capability. The GXs in our area did not have that feature available. I hope this helps. Thanks again for tuning in with me!
Can you review the settings that come along with the new premium plus package? The additional speaker setting (if any) and how the power 3rd row works! Thank you!!
Hi! Thanks for tuning in. Here's what I can see on the Lexus USA site for the 2021 GX Premium Plus Package:
Include Premium Items:
Intuitive Parking Assist
Power-folding outside mirrors (starting with October 2020 production)
LED foglamps
Rain-sensing windshield wipers
Windshield wiper de-icer
Heated and ventilated front seats
Heated second-row outboard seats
Three-zone automatic climate control with interior air filter
and adds Mark Levinson. Here's a great resource: www.marklevinson.com/in-lexus.html#gx
that will give you all the info for the system.
When I can get a GX with the Power 3rd Row and Mark Levinson, I'll see if I can shoot a quick video.
Thank you😊
You're very welcome 😊 Thanks so much for watching!
tremendous video. so helpful. she's cute too lol
😊 thank you! Very sweet of you!
I need gx 😭
I hear ya! It's so awesome!
The rear view mirror is dark and hard to see at night. How to make it normal
Hi! That can mean a couple of things: 1. Something may be covering the sensor for the auto headlights on the dashboard. This video may help: How to brighten the Display Screen and Camera View on your Lexus - Tech Tip Tuesday: ruclips.net/video/28va94i96YA/видео.htmlsi=gNI-Rq30qpSeDtsD
2. There could be a small sticker on the back of your rearview mirror covering another sensor. Sometimes parking garages, car wash services and even dealership inventory systems can accidentally cover the sensor and it can make the screen look dark because it thinks it is dark outside. I hope one of these will help :)
Thank you very much. But i still have to ask : how to start the car from the key, not from the phone. Please
Hi Romy, To remotely start the 2021 GX from the key fob. Make sure you are in visual range of the vehicle. Using the lock button, press it twice then press and hold on the third press. So: 1st Click, 2nd Click, 3rd Click & Hold
Hope this helps.
Excellent training video.
I wonder why my sound system doesn’t turn on automatically when I start the car. I have always to select the “source” to get it to play. Usually I use my iPhone connected via usb.
thank you!
Hi Rico! Awesome to have you here! The USB connection for audio is accessing your iPhone music library and it take a bit for the computer on the car to process the information. If you want to try to have the Source on Bluetooth Audio and have the audio on your phone open or running in the background, it may work better for you. Also, if you are an Apple Music Subscriber, I read that they have an on off control for "auto play" now. It is supposed to look like an infinity symbol. That will also be better experienced through the Bluetooth Audio source option. Hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in!
How to set steering column to retract automatically.
Hi Judy. Thanks for checking in. You can do that in the Vehicle Settings. Setup > Vehicle > Vehicle Customization > Other Vehicle Settings > Easy Access can be customized here. Hope this helps :)
Thanks for the technology review, One question: is it possible to make all these selections/setups with engine OFF?
Hi Eli, Yes, many of the features can be explored and customized when the vehicle is in Accessory Mode. Just don't apply the brake and press the Start Engine button twice. If an item isn't available it will be grayed out or the system will tell you that you need to turn on the car. For example, you usually have to have the car all the way on (engine running) to pair a phone. Hope this helps. Thanks so much for tuning in with us!
My puppies go with a lot and I need to leave them in the car for a few minutes. How do I leave the car running, ac on and lock the doors?
Hi! We need to keep those puppies comfy for sure! Just leave the GX running and use the metal key (located in the key fob) to lock the car form the key cylinder from the driver's door. You will take the fob with you. Make sure not to leave it in the car. The vehicle will beep a you a few times once you lock it with the mechanical key, but that is totally normal. Then you will use the mechanical key to unlock the car when you are ready to get back in to drive. I hope this helps. Thanks for being here!
Firt of all Melissa Thank you for the great videos u make... one of the best if not the best ... I was hoping u could teach me how to make my HUD read the speed in the middle rather on the right of the HUD ... I hope you got what i mean... i will be waiting for your reply .. thanks
Hi @GHOST! Thanks so much for your very kind comment. The HUD has some limitations regarding the position of information, but when certain elements are turned on or off it may impact the layout. Let me see if I have a GX here with a HUD and I'll play with the settings and see if I can come up with a solution for you. My concern is that the items appear in a fixed position so I don't know if it will work, but it's worth a try. Fingers crossed and I'll get back with you :)
@@NorthsideLexus Well you deserve these words because they are true... I actually have ES350 F 2020 not a GX .. I commented here because it hasn't been long since you posted this video... anyway I will be waiting for you thank you again Melissa
@@gh0st684 Thanks so much! Also, thanks for clarifying which vehicle. The HUDs are different and I want to get you accurate info :)
Hi @GHOST I finally got my hands on an ES w/ HUD and have gone through all of the settings. Unfortunately each item that can show in the display is in a fixed position and even when other items are turned off the layout of the information does not change. That means your MPH will always be on the right side of the HUD projection. Sorry I don't have better news for how you would like it to show. Please let me know if you have any other questions about your ES though :)
@@NorthsideLexus No it's fine, I for my self tried everything too and didnt get anyway also anyway thats fine, but thank you so much for trying really appreciate it. Well actually I do have something new that came to my mind in the past few hours :) the thing is as follows ... when the engine is running and a key is not detected I still can drive it right! , I was thinking is there a way that this actually doesn't happen ? Like if the engine is running but the key is not in the car I can not drive it .... Again thank you so much.
When is the 2022 GX 460 tutorial coming?, soon I hope.
It is in the works. We have had very limited inventory, but I have been able to film everything except the Off-roading package details. I'm waiting for one to arrive next week. I'll get that segment filmed and finish the edits. Fingers crossed I can have it ready in a few weeks. Thanks for staying tuned.
what about the remote start feature on 2021
The 21 GX is compatible with Remote Connect. Make sure to add your VIN to your Lexus app and select to add the subscription. Then you will have remote start from the app and the key fob. Thanks for tuning in!
On the dash screen it has a normal for raising your car up and to lower how do you set it
Hi Edna, If your GX has Adaptive Height Control, then you use those controls to adjust the height or you let the car adjust automatically for you for better aerodynamics and fuel economy. Thanks for checking in!
Some people buy this Lexus and use regular gasoline. What’s your opinion about it?
Hi Zemo, This GX has a V8 designed for a higher octane fuel. The minimum would be 91. The research grade was 96. Regular fuel is too low of an octane rating for this engine and can cause changes in valve timing and potentially damage the engine. It's always best to use the correct fuel for the engine type and build on any vehicle. I hope this helps. Thanks very much for being here.
This is straight out of the owner's manual: "You must only use unleaded gasoline.
Select premium unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 91 (Research Octane Number 96) or higher required for optimum engine performance
and fuel economy. If the octane rating is less than 91, damage to the engine may occur and may void the vehicle warranty."
You are amazing
Thanks so much, Hesham!
Can you please check and see why when you the Apple Car Play, everything works (GPS, music, text and others) except Bluetooth. I took it to the dealership and said that was my phone, then they checked again and said it was the volume, but I never moved anything with that. They took it to the technician and gave me another NX300 2020 (same year and model as mine) and the Bluetooth works perfectly.
Hi @rosaab84 Thanks for watching. Sorry you're experiencing that. I hope I am understanding your issue. Here's what I can tell you:
- Re: volume with Bluetooth. Each device pairing is different which could explain why it was not an issue in the other vehicle. Also, each app that produces sound seems to have a separate volume control. We're seeing this more and more with iOS14 versions. The trick is to get your app playing (through Bluetooth Audio) then turn the volume up on the iPhone all the way. Then adjust the volume on the car. The phone is sending volume information as well as the audio content to the vehilce.
- When you plug in for Apple CarPlay, it completely overrides the BT connection until you unplug and the system reconnects for BT. So all voice commands, etc. should be push and hold to use Siri for the features you mentioned. If you push and release for native commands you can operate the radio and climate control, but not the phone.
Hopefully this will solve your mystery. If not, please let me know exactly what you're experiencing and I'll see if I can troubleshoot it for you :)
Hey I’m having a weird issue. When I first bought the car and they filled up the gas tank, it said 343 miles per tank. Ever since then it doesn’t go past 277 miles per tank whenever I fill up, why is that? And on your car it has 389 miles on a full tank. Am I missing something?
Hi! It is normal on all cars for the approximate range to lower to a more normal amount after the car starts learning how you drive and the octane rating of the fuel you are using. The initial calculation is not realistic because it is the first tank of gas and there are very few miles on the car for it to use as a reference. The car's I have access to for filming are also usually new and on the first tank of fuel so they can look high. Keep in mind that it usually take 3 tanks of fuel for all of the learning components to "learn" from you and the fuel being used. I hope this helps.
@@NorthsideLexus ah makes sense. I do a lot of city driving so that explains it. I don’t drive far but it’s a lot of stop and go. I thought something was wrong. Also I haven’t let the car go past 1/4 tank so when it was only letting me put in 18 gallons to fill up, it was throwing me off. Thank you so much for the response.
Super helpful tutorials. There is one item that I need help with. The signal lights on my 2021 GX 460 doesn’t blink 3 times when touched like other Lexus, I have to fully engage the signal lights every time I want to change lanes. What is going on?
Hi Doc Torres, Unfortunately the GX doesn't have the same "customizable lane change" feature that you are describing. I checked the online Owner's Manual for you and on page 211 (drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/document/om-s/OM60T19U/pdf/OM60T19U.pdf) it just states "move the
lever partway and then release it." When you do that does it just blink once? That is what I have experienced driving the GX. I wish I had a better answer for you.
Hi- could you please explain how to connect the iPhone apps via Bluetooth in the GX 460 that does not have apple car play?
Hi Steve. Thanks for watching. App with sound can be played through the Bluetooth Audio source selection on your sound system. On the GX, press the audio button, press source, select Bluetooth Audio. Then on your phone, open the app you want sound from, start playing content, use the volume control on the phone to turn it up to max volume. Then you can control the volume even better from the vehicle’s volume controls. If you are wanting audio from navigation apps, you will also need to look at the audio settings for the app. Each one is different and can vary by phone and phone OS. Some have options to play as a Bluetooth phone call so you can still listen to the radio while getting NAV app periodically like getting a call. Hope this helps 👍
Hello, I was wondering if the spare tire underneath the GX460 2021 has a chain that is supposed to be hanging down a few inches from the middle of the spare tire? Thanks!
Hi Victoria, The GX spare tire is pulled up and held into place by a chain and a metal bracket. Check out page 543: drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/document/om-s/OM60T19U/pdf/OM60T19U.pdf for a better description. I don't think the chain should hang down past the tire though? You may want to make sure the metal bracket is in the right spot. I hope this helps.
I am having a issue setting up my Navigation to drive to other cities
Hi Jewel, On the GX, make sure to change the state you are searching in. Select Address > Change State or Province > Select the correct state for your search > then follow the prompts for the rest of your search. Once you have the state changed you can also use voice commands for searching in that state. For more information check out the NAV Owner's Manual starting on page 99: drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/document/omnav-s/OM60T28U/pdf/OM60T28U.pdf Hope this helps :)
Question, the 2021 Gx460 on the signal lights it comes with the option to push the signal lever half way and the signal lights just blinks three times? The premium package.
Hi Eddie, The Owner's Manual is very confusing on this one. The GX still does not have a programmable customization for this feature. You Can hold the lever partway and it will flash until you let it go, but it does not have a set number of flashes, even with a Premium package. Check page 211 of the online Owner's Manual for details: drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/document/om-s/OM60T19U/pdf/OM60T19U.pdf Thanks so much for tuning in.
how do you use the front camera?
Hi! I'm sorry I didn't have a GX with the front camera when I was filming. On the GX it is called the Multi-terrain Monitor in the Owners Manual. There is a section starting on page 296 in the digital version of the manual: drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/document/om-s/OM60T19U/pdf/OM60T19U.pdf
Start by pushing the "View" button on the left side of the dash. If you have the GX stopped, but shift into Drive and keep your foot on the brake, you'll also see an "Auto" soft button the bottom left corer of the main screen. If you click to turn "auto" on then the camera view will turn on as you slow down or come to a stop. You can select different views right on the screen and choose the view that works best for your driving situation. I hope this is a good start for you. All the best :)
Oh. my car 2019. hope same
Hi Bess. It will be very similar to your 2019. If you want to look at the 2020 GX full tutorial instead, here it is for you: ruclips.net/video/kfjBfOsgyD4/видео.html Hope this helps. Thanks so much for tuning in with us!
Will hard wiring in a dash cam void my warranty? Thanks Melissa
Hi Jim, Yes, there is a risk of the warranty being voided. Make sure to check with your Service and Finance Department to see if there are any options they can recommend. I know at our store we don't install them since they are an aftermarket item, but I do see them on some people's cars. Not sure if they are not hardwired and the installer is just really good at hiding the wiring? I would see if that's an option. Best of luck on your search.
do you have the dimensions (Height, Width, Length from 1st & 2nd row) in inches of the cargo space? How flat is the cargo space with the 2nd row down?
Hi Brian, For a measurement in inches, I would check with your sales person so they can measure that for you. The dimensions I have access to are only what's on the Lexus website and they only give cubic feet of cargo volume. Here are the dimensions from the Lexus website: www.lexus.com/models/GX?link[model_overlay_infolayer][SHOW_PAGE]=true&link[model_infolayer][setActiveTab]=1
Cargo volume* (behind front/second-row/third-row seats)
64.7 / 46.7 / 11.6 cu ft They only give cubic feet of cargo volume.
All the best.
You did not cover different driving modes of GX460. Does it show anywhere on the dash or screen which driving mode the car is in ?
Hi Ali, The GX does not have a Drive Mode Selector like a lot of our other models. Are you asking about the Low 4WD information? I was not able to drive this vehicle to demo the off-roading capabilities, but as noted in the video, any button or toggle adjusted in the center console will display information on the MID and or illuminate on the dash. I hope this helps!
@@NorthsideLexus I have the luxury trim of 2017 GX460 and it has 3 driving modes. Normal, comfort and Sport mode. When I change the switch to set on comfort or Sport, I don't know where to confirm if it has appropriately shifted to the correct mode
@@alimahmood5111 Ahhh, that is adjusting the suspension system. (The Adaptive Variable Suspension System.) It is not the same as the Drive Mode Selector like some of the other cars. That adjustment is only indicated by the position of the toggle switch. Hope this helps.
How can I set my navigation to the shorter route
Hi Jewel, When you put in a route, look for the soft button the the screen that says "Three Routes" click to open, and then choose from the three route options. You also want to start a route and then make sure you have Freeways and Toll Road turned on in the Route Preferences. That can make a big difference.
Hi I just got my GX460 Luxury Since I can fold my mirrors. I know there is a way to do this. The guy showed me quickly but it was such a condensed walk through that I can’t figure it out. Can you please help with the function for them? Automatically and/or manually will help. Thank you for being so specific! I appreciate it!
Hi @Geri C, Thanks for being here. If you have power folding mirrors on your GX you will see a mirror folding symbol on the toggle button above the mirror adjustment circular pad. If you don't see the power fold button, then you can manually fold them in just by pulling from the housing for the mirror. Check page 157-158 of the online Owner's Manual: drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/document/om-s/OM60T19U/pdf/OM60T19U.pdf they show a picture of it. In our area it is rare to see the auto folding mirrors. Hope this helps. :)
How did connect to RUclips while driving
Hi Karla, You can listen to the sound from RUclips videos through Bluetooth Audio. Video content does not share to the screen for safety reasons. If you have an iPhone, you can also plug in to USB and play sound from RUclips videos through the USB/iPod Audio Source. Thanks so much for tuning in.
What does 3 zone mean?
Hi Javier! Thanks for watching. 3 Zone means you have a 3rd controllable climate zone for the rear cabin.
Zone 1: Driver's Area
Zone 2: Front Passenger Area
Zone 3: Rear Passenger Area
If a passenger temperature is adjusted (from the front passenger or the back controls), then 3-Zone is activated and it will let all of the selectable temperatures operate separately. So you can have 3 temperatures chosen. When you turn 3-Zone off, by clicking on it, then all of the temperatures will sync up with the Driver's selected temperature. I'm sorry I seem to have missed that in the video. I do apologize for the oversite.
Is this the 2007 Lexus GX? To be honest, it really looks outdated. Lexus is my favorite and best car brand out there, but they need to think out of the box and create a new design for the GX. And even the interior looks so old. Otherwise, great job on the tutorial!
Hey Dakota. Thanks for watching. Glad you liked the tutorial. I know the GX is up for a redesign, but it is definitely on the longest track for major changes. Lexus usually follows 3, 5, 7 and 10 year tracks for changes and redesigns. I'm not sure why the GX has been so slow to have big updates. Hope fully they have some cool updates for it coming down the line!
How do you install a license plate in the front.
Hi Gunner, There should be a license plate support bracket that comes with your new GX. It is a rectangular black plastic piece with some holes that will line up with the "knock outs" in the grille for the screw attachment points. I'm sorry they don't seem to have a picture of it in the Owner's Manual. You may want to ask your Lexus Dealer to help with the installation, if you aren't comfortable attaching the plate bracket. I'm sure they would be happy to help. Congratulations on your new Lexus!
Do you know where it would be found?
Good morning, @@gunnerblinka9799 . It is usually in the glove box, or in the back cargo area. There are some small cubby doors in the back sides and rear door, have you check there? Unless the previous owner discarded it. if they did, you can order one from a Lexus Parts Department to make sure it fits correctly. Hope you are able to find it. My fingers are crossed for you.
Do the 2021 gx460 have alarm system?
Hi Darcy, Yes, it does have an alarm system, as long as the vehicle is locked. If someone rocks the vehicle or tries to open a door without the key, the alarm will sound. You should see a small light by a pad lock icon on the dash. A Glass Breakage alarm is optional and is not always installed in all packages. So make sure to check the equipment list on your window sticker to see if you have the glass breakage option. All the best.
@@NorthsideLexus Thank so much for your help.
@@NorthsideLexus Do i have to set it?or is automatically armed the gx460 when you locked it?
@@darcydiaz23 When you lock the GX, the alarm is set and active. You should see that light change from a solid light to a flashing light. There is a good picture on page 79 in the online Owner's Manual: drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/document/om-s/OM60T19U/pdf/OM60T19U.pdf Great questions!
Maybe I missed it, but can you explain how to engage the mist on the rear window.
Hi Amy! Thanks for watching. The rear windshield wiper doesn't have a mist feature for wiping the glass, unless you spray the glass to clean it. Then it will swipe as well. To spray the glass push the stalk away, toward the front of the vehicle. (Pull toward you to spray the front windshield.) For rear wiper operation: twist the end of the stalk to select Intermittent, On for a steady swipe or Off. Hope this helps :)
Full tutorial and not a word about terrain monitor?
Hi Sergei, I so wish I had been able to drive the GX to demo the Terrain Monitor. Unfortunately I was not able to for this video. Lexus USA does have some great video content for the off road features on the GX. Making a video for all of our off road features in on my wish list, so hopefully I will be able to do that in the future.
👍👍👍👍😉😉😉
Thanks so much for tuning in!
Melissa is kinda hot
Awww . . . now I want to throw a rainbow at you ;-) You made me LOL! Thanks for the sweet comment.
How to turn off seat adjustment cause every time turn off the engine the seat go back and when I get my leg can’t reach step brake to start the engine
Hi DT, No worries. Press the Setup button > Vehicle > Vehicle Customization > Other Vehicle Settings > Drive Seat Easy Exit > you can select Partial or Off. I hope this helps. Thanks so much for watching!
@@NorthsideLexus Thanks and one more thing I can’t start the engine with the key fob for 2022 Lexus GX 460 I know 2021 you can
As a new owner of a 2021 GX 460, I want to thank you for the video.
Thanks so much, @John! I really appreciate your feedback and support. So glad to help! Thanks for watching!
