Programming the remote
I read in the manual that the windows can also be programmed to go up from the remote. When I questioned the my Lexus Dealer about it they said they tried but it would'nt go up. Do any of you guys have this feature programmed into the remote?
It would make sense though especially if it was to start raining and you left the sunroof open, but you don't want to runout and put the key in and then close the window!!!

If you read closely in the BEST setting forms you will see that this feature is designated as "Not Available in North America"
Don't know why, something to do with safety laws I suspect.

I know I hate that.
I love the fact you can roll them down with the remote but not up.
The other one I hate is that you have to be in park to operate the memory buttons on the door.
The seat memory on mine is the same position for 1 and 2 only the passenger side mirror goes down so I can see my back wheel and the curb. I hate the fact that you have to be in park to get this to work.
This is where BMW has it over Lexus. Put it in reverse and the mirror goes down automatically.

I always scratch the car when I try to roll up the windows at night. I always think I am putting the key in the key hole but I always miss and she has a new blemish!!!:eek:

question for you guys, sorta off topic, but still regarding our remotes.
what is the range you guys get with your remotes? i've noticed that the newer lexus cars have a far range they can go and still be able to lock/unlock their doors with their remote. mine is like working within 15 feet and any distance farther than that, it doesn't work. i even tried changing the battery, no luck.

It sucks that we can roll our window down with the remote but not up. . Well i have an aftermarket alarm and when it is armed, all the windows are rolled up automatically. .

so true. i have remote start, so i turn on my car and when i enter, i have to hit the memory button to get my steering column down to the proper position. hell, my mom's '89 MB 560SEL has more functions then the GS seats(minus lumbar) and the rear seats are also heated and movable
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah i agree, i also have remote start and after entering the car, i would also have to hit the memory button so the steering column move into position. .
