2017 LS460 Remote Start
Have a question about remote start. Recently picked up this beautiful, low mileage 2017 LS460 and trying to figure how to activate remote start function. On my ES350 that I had before it was activated through the Lexus Enform service. Once activated I was able to start it from my phone or by pressing lock button on the key fob 3 times. Now, since 3G is dead there's no way to get connected to the Lexus Enform services. Is there any other way to activate remote start function, just so it can be used from the original key fob? Appreciate any info.

There does not seem to be an OEM alternative to Lexus Enform but aftermarket.

Orphaned Model Years on the LS460
The 2016 and 2017 LS460 models are what I call Orphans of Lexus. They discontinued Enform and we effectively lost the ability to remote start our vehicles and, as far as I can gather, there is NO aftermarket solution. Lexus married the 3G technology and there are not solutions offers for High Value vehicles which are less than 6 years old. Sad day for Long time lexus lovers !!!

I have the remote start from 12volt. I really like it. It’s easy to install and only took 20 min.
it uses the OEM kept fob where you press the lock button 3x and it starts. The car does shut down after you open the door and you need to restart the car like normal once in.

Hot summer and cold winters. Remote start allows heater or air conditioner to make cabin comfortable before entry. Is it necessary? No, but the northern states can see temperatures in the winter extremely cold.
