at least 2GB free of space in any Flash drive or SDcard with adapter , the file only 89MB or 98MB if i don't forget, Fat32 as they stated above, just download it and plug in your car's USB don't open or do anything, get on your Nav setting and go to setting and click update, wait till it finish dont turn off your car before it completely done.
updated for 2 days now no Nav reboot or restart yet, will see ...

I got this one and it worked, it was already formatted Fat32 so no formatting necessary:

West coast Canada here. The update has been a huge help. It no longer shows me driving on the grass. Going to wait awhile longer to see if it helps with screen locking up.
Thanks OP!

Hmmm...I am reading a list of fixes and there is nothing there to suggest they did anything in the area of improved positional accuracy. I noticed that too before many times - if I do something contrary to what navigation tells me (for example I stay on freeway rather than taking an exit I was supposed to take) it takes Lexus long time to realize that I am still on freeway. My Garmin doesn't have this problem, it is much more nimble in terms of positional accuracy. I don't want to bad mouth Lexus because I don't think its navigation is as bad as some here want us to believe (like "unusable") but clearly its algorithms are not at the top of the game.

I spoke too soon. It rained today and sure enough I'm driving on the grass again. I don't even bother to use the GPS. Sometime I have it up just for fun. Between the awkwardness of the interface to enter an address and slow to calculate route, I can be 2-3 blocks driving using my iPhone and google map.

Just for the record - Garmin doesn't provide maps to anybody, they have to purchase them themselves (Garmin is not a map/database company),
Garmin gets it's data from HERE which is a major map/database supplier, there is a good chance Toyota/Lexus also get their maps from them.
