Is there anyway that you can stop the tilt steering from position itself everytime I take the key out.

yeah... just position the steering wheel all the way forward and all the way up and save that to the memory seating.

There is also a CBEST setting that can be programmed at your dealer, so you can set it however you like and it won't move with the key inserted or removed. If you go this route, you may want to look into the many other changes you can have made to your convenience. Unlocking all doors with one press of the remote for example comes to mind. Search "CBEST" for a list.

Can you use the CBEST setting for a 98 GS 300?

I need the extra room to get in and out of the car! I love having the wheels tilt up when I take the key out! Having all 4 doors unlock with one touch I believe has been my favorite mod!

+1 I'm 6'6" 230 lbs and if I had to slide under the steering wheel every time I get in the car, I'd get rid of it. I even had my alarm guy disable the auto tilt when I use the remote starter. Get in, sit down, push one button and I'm comfortable.

You can unplug the connector underneath the ignition lock i.e. directly at the base. 5 minute job. Pull out the moulding around the ignition key (it pulls out easily enough) and then unplug it. Done deal.

It is a CBEST option, it must be set by the dealer with a scan tool

how do you program the key to where you only have to push it once to unlock all doors?

The previous owner had the CBEST settings changed and disabled both the telescoping steering column and the power seats. It was a benefit seeing how I am only 5'5", so I can slide in and out easily anyways. The other upside is that you place less wear and tear on those mechanisms (seat and steering column).

this thread is old, but I wanna know HOW DO I SET THAT?? Right now, my car doesn't auto tilt when I take the key out. I want room to be able to get in out the car. haha

It's a cool feature, but gets annoying real quick!

There are two options.

1. The setting has been disabled electronically through the CBEST setting which requires an OEM scan tool to set.

2. It has been physically unplugged as mine was. The most likely case is that has been disconnected at the ignition lock which is the easiest place to get to. The moulding around the ignition lock pulls out but first pull out the illuminating bezel around the barrel. Once these are removed and you have access to the ignition lock, you should see a small connector at the base of the ignition lock (6 o'clock) very near the front. The connector has two black wires (with two white stripes). If this is unplugged then the auto function will not work. If it is in then either it is faulty, disconnected up stream or simply been de-programmed and so move to Option 1.
