It should be showing Map ID *************** when you get the uodate that ID has to match and your ID is Missing You could rebbot the system press start twice without pressing the brake

I Did manage to get this to work i used an old Nokia 6500 and it worked perfectley doesnt do a deal but i did get it to work useing Dial up Networking Robert

Mine too goes straight to the Map screen if i switched of with the map on if i have had the media screen on it goes straight to that on swich on as john says

Peter Yes i input all the details of my Portal acc but will still not connect I get the " Check your Phone Or Provider" I reinstalled phone into system and i think it must have got to the point where it asks for my portal details and then i get the error "Do you Want to try Again" YES or CANCEL i have tried multiple times all to no avail I think it Must be The Bluetooth Dial up Networking i think i will contact O2 and see what they Say But as i said before when it asks for my UserName in the EditCtrl it as (www.Mylexus.Eu) then when i input that disapears and my user name goes in. then Password then I get the error I know its not end of the world but i thought if it was there i would have it I am sure others have tried to do it Thanks Robert

Thanks for that Peter Did you USE DIAL up NETWORKING or just bluetooth tethering I have a O2 Act and was thinking of going over to the 3 network but may have to get the settings Mind i am on Pay and Go maybe thats the problem

Hi While we are in this Lockdown i thought i might try and get the Lexus Connect to connect to the car I have iphone 7 an d car is 2014 GS450 i tried once before to no avail it kept telling me to contact provider. I have a portal account and if i say set a journey it says "Trip Successfully Sent to Car" but it does not however when setting up the car Radio the Default Address Says (WWW.My.Lexus.EU) but if you pit that into the browser it says SITE no longer available and directs you to www.myLexus.co.uk so i think this must be the problem . So my question is can the Harded coded IP address be changed in Car useing TechStream . However it must have worked at some time by previous Owner as there is a stack of Personal POIs in the Cars POI libary. Thanks Robert

Certainly looks good Alan well done

I Had a similar problem with my car that i purchased from Maidstone (Lexus) the book wasnt stamped up to date and when i queryed this was told that they no longer stamp books unless specificaly told to by the customer as everything is on line, He then went onto the pc he had there and sure enough it was all there. I am old school and like to see services in the service book so i got them to get it stamped up which they duly did. Robert

Glad you got her back john pleased for you I bet it was like loosing yr right arm Enjoy Mate Robert

I wonder why they have been "back marking " with the repair 7 week for a body repair and change door mmmmm but glad you getting the old girl back john pleased for you Robert

Just in the proccess of renewing mine just had the car coming up to a year now nothing as gone wrong but i am renewing warranty

Well John i bet you are really het up about that have they said what is the problem is could it be a paint mismatch ? Hope you get her back soon Robert

Jeff If they working ok i must be wrong but i thought USA was 315mhz and UK 433mhz so if working ok dont worry if your DTC not showing its ok Sorry about that Regards Robert

I am not too sure on this but i think the ones from there are 315 mhz ours are 433 mhz so they will fit but wont work

Great News John i bet you cant wait to get the old girl back. Robert

have you checked that the door switch is not corroded making bad contact happend to me on my gs300 many years ago took out switch cleaned it and the problem was solved

Yes I too was a little disapointed in the audio and the 1 slot Cd from 6 but memory sticks and bluetooth have solved that problem As for the audio set the the source settings to your choice and you will find its more than acceptable plus after all it is MP3 or WMA so it has already lost a bit of quality i find mine is perfect for my needs. Changing the speakers will open a can of worms.

good on you ninz and ask for the service manager tell them to put origional battery back on ( they wont as it will have gone in bin) Robert

I think i would be taking it back to dealer

A very merru xmas to all LOC members may all your wishes for the New Year come true and hope you have nice xmas with your loved ones Robert

Exactly David but cruzer sticks are best I have found I have seen other peoples cars with wires hanging about all over the place and that goes through me just to play music I have 2 16 gb sticks less than a tenner a peice and one as 40 albums on and there is still plenty of room i dont think i have used the other and i have a small USB extension that sits in the console box as neat as a pin. Perfect I use to use a old iphone 4 as IPod but if you dont use car for a couple of days its battery is flat mind it does show Album art work and plays in AAC which is slightly better than MP3 or WMA but not much so thats why i use the USB stick Robert

You can also use itunes and make playlists of your music i e if the cd is Tom Jones greatest hits name the playlist that also make sure in preferences in Itunes it is set for MP3 put the USB memory stick in Aand make coressopnding Folder then copy and paste, all songs will be in order then. I used to use drivesort but since it updated it will no longer work asks for MFC140.dll that cannot be found Drivesort is simple if you can get it to work so I have now reverted to ITunes. One more point I have got 3 16 gb usbs as i found out that the large ones take a while for Albums to display on screen I know its too much trouble, but you can get 40 albums plus on 16 gb usb sticks mine is a 2014 Gs450

Fingers crossed for you mate hope all goes to plan Robert

My 2014 450 Premier works as Johnatg says maybe needs the software flashing again maybe other things are wrong too contact the Dealer
