even saying normal things bring back surprising answers from the NAV lady. Warm = auto club. I guess they have heat at their office. Cancel guidance = map my way home.... I guess so that my wife can yell at me for being mean to the NAV lady

Default Coolest Features

My teenage kids get a kick out of the NAV lady game. For example, "Eject Front Passenger" gets a response of "Command not available, etc." This is followed by "Fire Photon Torpedoes" (not an option in '06, unfortunately), etc.

LOL My wife just did this today, left me at home watching golf. I love it and don't even drive it.

I haven't figured out how to set the locks to unlock once the car is placed in park yet. It locks when placed in drive. On the GX, I held the lock button down for 5 second while in park with the key on. Didn't work for the LS. Any suggestions.
I’m new in this forum and I just bought ‘02 UL with 45k
I tried many times to set the smart key to open all the doors, not just the drivers but I couldn’t.
Can any one help me with this issue and post pics of the configuration setting that will show up on the display.


thanks,

thanks,
Are you talking about using the remote to open all doors (press unlock twice) or using the door handle to open all doors (open with passenger door handle).

My favorite command is "pick my nose" which gets the response "are you sure you want a route to home?"

Yes, my dealer asked if I wanted that feature as they can program it for me. Do a search on the forum, someone had listed the full option available.

That's news to me. I'll check my '02 since I'm curious.

I like how the dealer can program the sensitivity of the auto-headlights. So says the manual, at least.

(and about the Sunroof- I hear they can program that to not open with the key. I Haven't asked yet).
