Brand new ES350. Rear view mirror does not display compass readings. My 2008 did. Is this feature discontinued or is there a malfunction. I tried the calibration procedure described in the manual but could did not see any of the figures that should have been displayed.

The green digits on the '08 rearview mirror are integrated down inside the mirror, so you get a continuous mirror reflection across the segments that aren't lit. On the other hand, the compass in the '10 loaner I'm driving today has a big gray non-mirrored rectangle behind the digits. I assume this was considered an improvement to make the letters easier to read, but it looks clunky. In this case, getting rid of it entirely was the better choice.
