turning off DRL
i am going to the dealer (lexus of glendale) this friday to have my DRL turn off.
on the phone, they sounded kind of hesistant to do it, but i told them it's one of the LPS settings. They told me to come in anyway.
any tips in case the dealer refuse to do it ?
thanks

Talk directly to the tech doing the service, don't run it by the service manager first. That's how I got mine "fixed."
I went in to register another set of TPMS, and while he was plugged into the OBD, I said, "You know, while you're at it...."
Management will flat-out refuse to do it, since it's not on the pretty Lexus-approved pamphlet of things that can be personalized.

I was at Glendale not too long ago and I talked directly with the service advisor. I begged him to do it but he flatly refused. He probably was BS-ing but he told me that corporate had sent out a letter to all techs informing them that they are NOT to do it no matter what the customer says.

Not interested in debating the effectiveness of DRL, but which states require DRL's? Most of the states I've checked don't require DRL either on the state or federal level. Many states require the use of the headlights in bad weather or when you use the windshield wipers though. That said, if there is no law that mandates the use of DRL in the USA, why would Lexus be held liable?

I just wrote on the LPS sheet at the bottom the additional features I wanted adjusted that weren't on the sheet already. the Tech took care of it all in the back. My service advisor didn't even look at the sheet...he just passed it on to the tech.
Also when you do your LPS...it would be a good time to program your extra TPMS sensors if you plan on getting rims.

I had mine turned off the day I got my car... Dealer did it for me right then and there... They were like "Wow, I didn't know that could even be done!" (I had the printout showing how to access DRLs in the scan tool since they didn't know how to do it)
I left the the copy of the printout showing how to do it so they could turn off the DRL's of anyone else who wanted it done... All the service reps were like "This is great information, thanks!"
