Perfect convertible weather right now.
Agree. I’m not into modding, and the LC was too similar to my Huracan (same functionally: 2 person, limited storage). So making a choice which one to get rid of, wasn’t really much to think about.

i wasn't aware of this, but anyway, i guess last time i stopped the car i had it on 'current gear' display, and sure enough starting it up tonight it was on the same setting.

maybe it goes to fuel efficiency if you shutoff/start the car in eco?

Aye. I mentioned subsequently that the “meter” suddenly started locking in as desired yesterday, and I have no explanation for this. (Even the dealerships’s knowledgeable tech coach said it couldn’t do that.) Is it possible that Lexus sends down minor software fixes without us being aware of it? Just a thought. Also...eco? Why would I subject this beast to that indignity?

I know that you already sold your car but for anyone else that hasn’t figured this out yet when the side display with freeway exits comes up just move your cursor to the small icons on the far right and click on the bottom one. It will make the side display disappear. Page 32 of the Navigation System Owners Manual explains this.

But I want split screen, with music on the right side all the time. Your suggestion is not a solution.

Again on page 32 of the Navigation System Owners Manual it describes the 5 small icons that control the side display. The second on from the top displays audio.

Don’t just quote the manual, try it yourself! If you have audio displayed on the right. Drive down the freeway, Exits info replaces the audio, and stays on. I don’t want (nor should need) to reselect the audio icon EVERY time I pass an exit!!

Home is already a 'previous' destination (i set via voice) but i don't see how to use a prior destination as setting for 'home'?
i know you already have it as a previous destination but you need to set it as home first so that you can just select the home icon from the Navigation screen. After you do that it will be saved and you won’t have to enter it again

You are correct that it doesn’t save your selection after you restart your car (not every exit). As an alternative you can display you audio on the instrument cluster. That is actually what I do. That way I can ignore the exit screen while driving.

Easy solution to this issue. Do the following:
Go To Setup
Select Navigation
Select Detailed Navi. Settings
Scroll down to Automatic Freeway Exit List and select either ON or OFF

Problem Solved

Thank you. I just followed these instructions and it worked. 👍🏾 I bet that my split screen selection will save now. I’ll have to try that one out tonight

Rebooting this. It's not stuck on fuel efficiency anymore. Now it's stuck on something else - tire pressures. If I shut off the car with something else in that screen and start it up again...dang...tire pressures. It seems to randomly decide what to default to. Touching the "OK" button doesn't make any difference. Does anyone know how to lock in the last selected bit of data in that meter screen?

Bumping this up again. Anyone know how to lock in a selection on the center “meter”? The RX has a home button for this purpose. The LC does not. I’ve read and re-read the owner’s manual. Nothing seems on point or effective.

Mine always defaults to range which is where I leave it. I will try leaving it on something else and see what it starts up with and let you know how that goes.
