It's really bad, and I'm also very OCD which doesn't help. However, I enjoy cleaning them now as it gets me out of the house for awhile. It's kind of like therapy lol

Question,

On you guys seeing post port arrival activity on the enform remote app, did you have to enter a 6 digit PIN or does activity just show up with only a VIN number entry? I linked up my camry and see all the items for it. I see nothing but a request for the is500 PIN however.

Apologies if this question has been answered deeper in this thread. It’s a long thread and I went on hiatus from July-November lol

thank you.

VIN is all you need to obtain mileage & fuel level.

Did this all show up once it was in port or did it have to start the PDI process at port first? I figured once it was off the boat it would start to show, but mine has not yet in NJ.

I can relate, anything related to car detailing is a form of therapy for me too, I put the tunes, my daisy Duke shorts and go to.town! That being said, a busy wheel pattern can be difficult to get to all nooks and crannies

I wasn't able to confirm precisely when the information populated in the app. I checked the app daily; the odometer was 4-miles when it populated.

You must be sooooo excited! It appears the white with black interiors went to the west coast while the red interiors are going east...you, shoeboy and port moody dealer all have the white on black

I need some help (nothing serious). Can you guys instruct me on how you're tracking your cars on the app(?) before taking ownership? I recall people mentioning being able to monitor how much gas it has, how many times it's been started, etc etc.

I downloaded the Lexus Enform Remote app and have yet to register but can't imagine exactly how this works if you're not the owner. Seeing the car tonight.

edit: I can see I can add my vehicle on the app by entering the VIN. Can I add the VIN but delete it later if I don't take the car?

You can delete it later. I did for my previous one, but apparently started the Enform services for already.
