  1. P196 in the PDF manual, although I guess page may vary across the different types/editions of manual.  Was in 1-7 "Adjusting the angle of the outside rear view mirrors".

    Linked mirror function when reversing (vehicles with driving position memory)
    When the mirror select switch is in the “L” or “R” position, the outside rear view
    mirrors will automatically angle downwards when the vehicle is reversing in order to
    give a better view of the ground.
    To disable this function, move the mirror select switch to the neutral position (be-
    tween “L” and “R”)
    With the shift position in R, adjust the mirror angle at a desired position to set the
    mirror angle used when the vehicle is reversing.
    The adjusted angle will be memorized and the mirror will automatically tilt to the
    memorized angle whenever the shift position is shifted to R from next time.
    The memorized downward tilt position of the mirror is linked to the normal position
    (angle adjusted with the shift position in other than R). Therefore, if the normal
    position is changed after adjustment, the tilt position will also change.
    When the normal position is changed, readjust the angle in reversing.

    Suspect incorrect speed shown in dashboard and HUD: I got so fed up with the in car navigation that I tried using the Tom-Tom phone app via Android-Auto.  There is a variance of 2-3 KMPH between what the car says is the current vehicle speed and what Tom-Tom says is the current speed.  Going past road furniture that displays your current speed, it seems Tom-Tom is reporting the speed correctly and the Lexus is reporting it incorrectly.

     

     

     

    That's perfectly normal, and very noticable with digital speedometers.

    Sat Nav speed is using GPS to calculate speed as distance over time.

    Car speedos are not using the same calculation and are not allowed to under-read under UK law - they can over-read by up to 10 per cent plus 6.25mph.  So it could even read 50 mph when you're only really doing 40.

    Just placed an order for 450h+ on 01.08.2022 and dealer already confirmed it is going to be '2023' model. Dealer could not say but any indication on what is new in 2023, if any?

    Got an ETA of March 2023 but what is more realistic in this forum's opinion?

    Thanks

    I've been watching this thread keenly, and based on recent/forthcoming arrivals, Mar 2023 seems realistic for a recently ordered 450h+.  I certainly hope so, as that's our ETA too!

    The 350h ETAs do seem much more variable based on comments here.

    We ordered through a lease company.  Unfortunately our first order was requested a week or so prior to the price increase which we knew was coming on Jun 30th.  The lease company only got back to us after this date, and then rejected the order due to the increase.

    The resubmitted order was confirmed in mid-Jul, and fingers crossed for Mar 2023.  This is for a 450h+ Takumi.
