@Max Wise There's nothing available to purchase. The only item in any of the options is MAPCARE LEXUS (2/22/2023 - 2/22/2030) in the Purchased section.

The estore option is empty.

try different browser and reload page, it should be looking like this

When I go to the estore and choose the estore option I see the following:

HERE ARE ALL THE APPS, MAPS AND CONNECTED SERVICES FOR ANY INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM.

But there are no apps, maps or connected services available.

Interestingly, when choosing the Purchased option I see MAPCARE LEXUS (2/22/2023 - 2/22/2030).

Does this mean I have free map updates until 2030?

Try to buy the 2023 map update, and it should say you have it. Then go to your active services, expand all and try to expand map, there should be URL with download and activation code.

No.Given up and all my music is now on my phone,relayed via Android Auto wirelessly.

I know. I have experience with many cars in UK and USA, with Satnav and Android Auto. My choice is built-in Satnav on Ram 1500. Having Lexus here in the UK and the USA, for the same models, USA cars are way better: buil-in internet for software and traffic (not hotspot, surely plus hotspot), remote start and other perks, SiriusXM (satellite HD radio), Lexus application is much more features enriched. Also, Lexus is now well behind the industry regarding in-car technology. Not buying any more new Lexus. It was nice to drive them.

PS Android Auto via wireless is good, but when connected, your mobile phone is not connected to the car's built-in hotspot. Not good

Interesting.

I have a feeling that the estore on my RX has not been working either.  I'll check and revert.

I have seen no announcement about the estore being closed, but then again there was no announcement about Radly internet radio stopping working either, and that hasn't worked for me for 18 months.

Yes, there is definitely an issue. It is not a big deal, but sad. I need to see and download some other applications like Weather; I installed Coyote 2 years ago.

latest map is 2023 v1, available on lexus.co.uk ans lexus-tech.eu. USB flash drive is only version 2.0, FAT32, max size 32GB.

Tried on my NX300h 2019 Lexus, but it doesn't recognize it. Has anyone had success with Gracenote updates?

On the Lexus e-store, it says the map update is £119! I thought it was free?

Any help appreciated 🙏 

Man, this is Lexus for you. Nothing is free. Morons at Lexus official dealerships never even tell you about the new software available. You have to check yourself 🙂 For the map updates, please go to lexus.co.uk, choose eStore, and buy freebies and map updates. When bought, wait for some time and find in the purchase history, then expand it to find the link and see the download link for the map and activation code.

Yes, maximum 32GB, formatted FAT32, and USB version 2.0! it doesn't work with version 3.0

Max,

Does the car have an active internet connection?

Paul

Yes sitting in front of my house and connected to home broadband 🙂

Hi All

I have a Lexus NX300h 2019 and installed all the latest software.

Audio: 1457

Navigation: 1560

navdb_version 2023 v1

eStore version 1.27.7

However, when I run it, nothing happens. Is there a fix? Is eStore still open?

Thanks,

Max

HI pobrown

Many thanks for your information! You're my hero! I made all the software upgrades!

I have a Lexus NX300h 2019, and I have the latest software like that:

Audio:                     1457

Navigation:          1560

navdb_version: 2023v1

I have checked all TB today, one by one. That's the latest, I believe!

PS had an ugly experience with a Lexus dealer. They told me no software available. I have complained.
