Default How to add a car in the Lexus app?

I installed the app in my iPhone.
Wanted to add the NX, but it asks to scan the VIN.
This video on YouTube that says to ignore the VIN thingy, and make the car main screen display a QR code, which I then scan from the Lexus app.
Problem is: I already paired the NX to my iPhone (before downloading the app). Each time I get into the car it recognizes me and prompts "Welcome KLOCQ" and off it goes.
Anybody knows where in the menu I can find in the QR code thingy?

You will need to remove the profile and start from the beginning. it’s the only way for the code to appear for scanning.

also probably worth mentioning the car can ONLY be added to one user account - so if a partner/spouse/whatever already has added the car, it can't be added to another account...

This seems to be the problem. I'm just the trophy husband.
Lexus need to step up and start hiring real software engineers. It's ridiculous the quirks that I've found already.
