Lane Changing Blinkers
Does the new 2013 RX350 not have a 3-blink lane change? All of the other cars I have had had this feature. Just purchased one for the wife and it does not appear to have it. Can this be a dealership program that can be fixed to allow for one push of the blinker and the car will blink 3 times and goes off? If not she will not be happy.

Doesn't have it and I'm grateful for it. Each time I test drive a BMW, its blinkers drive me nuts.
If it is really bothering you, I'm sure an aftermarket device could be created (if there isn't one already) to alleviate this issue.

Yeah, doesn't. Purchased a '13 RX for my wife as well. Most German cars do (as do other Lexus vehicles it appears). Not sure why the RX does not, but she like the BSM lights that I don't care for.
Can anyone confirm that the dealer can program this? Might ask them to do this on our 5K service.

What's wrong with slightly holding the turn signal stalk while changing lanes like we have done for 100 years? This auto turn signal feature can confuse the drivers behind you should you have a quick change of mind to not change lanes after your initial signal activation.

Our last 2 non Lexus cars had this feature, but neither RX or our IS has had it. Although I didn't like it at first, I grew to really appreciate it, and missed it when it wasn't available anymore. Personal preferences differ, and they can't please everyone. My wife didn't like (and never used) the lane change feature when she had it on previous cars, and is happy that her RX doesn't have it!
The good news is that she can adapt to the change pretty quickly. As much as it bothered me when our cars were new, I stopped noticing after just a couple of weeks. I bet your wife will, too.
