[@pychien8841]

Thank you so much, I think other Lexus dealers out there owe you part of their commission because you saved the day :) I just picked up my 2020 ES 350 a couple days ago and the salesperson in my dealership just randomly went through a few things and told me to call. I love 300 miles away from the closest dealership, your video is very helpful.

[@suwiggtube]

This is a super helpful video, while I wait for my new car to arrive. This is a better way for me to learn, as opposed to listening while in the car with the tech specialist. At that point in the purchase process I feel tired and overwhelmed, whereas with this video I can listen at my leisure and replay as needed. And of course the social distancing advantage is much appreciated.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Glad it was helpful, Susan! You are spot on about the motivation to create this series of videos. Prior to COVID19, we always sat with a Guest in their new vehicle for at least an hour teaching the bells and whistles. I wanted to find a way to give everyone a different version of a detailed introduction. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks so much for watching!

[@fatenabdullah1567]

Thanks for the information, it’s very helpful. I have 2019 ES , is my car has the auto play if the side mirror as I noticed that those mirrors dose not flip in when I turn off the car.

[@himynameisryan]

Thank you for this video, this is the best tutorial of using a car I’ve seen on the internet ever I’m about to buy a 2020 es300h sports luxury (with the enhancement pack) on the used market and having this documented is so helpful For why I want to buy one: I test drove this, the Mercedes e class, Audi a6, bmw 5 series, all were high spec models and the Lexus was by far the smoothest, most comfortable, quietest, and most plush interior of the bunch. The Lexus interior designs are truely a masterpiece in terms of comfort and usability The reliability is just an additional plus for me.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Thanks for your kind words about the video! I'm so glad you're enjoying it. I agree about the Lexus ES being a great car. You'll really enjoy it.

This is the most comprehensive review I’ve ever seen. Im a car enthusiast and have both a 2019 Lexus RX Ultra Lux, as well other luxury models (Audi). Was trying to see if there was anything you may have missed in your detailed review, and must say, you got nearly everything and are very knowledgeable. Very nice!! I would only add a few items: - The center storage bin lid should swivel on both sides (Driver and Passenger side) - In addition to the radar and traffic recognition sensor behind the rear view mirror, the auto rain sensor for wipers are there too (so if your auto wipers are not working properly, that’s a good place to first check that it’s not dirty or blocked) - Your front windows and windshield are acoustic glass for noise reduction, as well as your wheels if you have that option - The windows also have jam safety feature where while rolling up automatically it detects any obstruction (like a hand or finger), the windows will automatically reverse down. (Test it with something soft like a wallet) - I didn’t see any power rear window shade?? Is this not available on the Ultra Lux ES? I know it’s available on the Limited Avalon.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi GHN1013 Awesome ideas and great catch on the front arm rest! It does indeed open on both sides. (Insert face palm emoji here;) The rear door sunshades are an option on the ES, but are not always easy to get in our area. Unfortunately I didn't have access to a vehicle with them. They are a wonderful detail. This was the second full tutorial video I did after the virus changed how we teach our Guests at the dealership. I'll keep working on adding as many details as possible. Hopefully they will just get better and better. I'm so glad to be able to help so many people. Maybe KZbin will add a feature where I can add notes on the existing videos for things like the arm rest? That would be so cool! Thanks again!

[@ONI1013.]

Northside Lexus - You can always add updated notes to your description section, and I think you can take your existing video and add pop up text notes (but I think you may have to add the text outside KZbin and re-upload). But keep up the great work. I really think it’s one of the best car video reviews out there.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi @@julyzerg1, depending on your model year, that is correct. The app used to be required for the connection to function. But with Gen 10 and newer models that feature is possible. The key fob remote start has the limitation of distance and none of the other Enform features, but it is nice to be able to do in the heat of the summer or on cold winter mornings.

I only watched about the first 5 minutes, but what ive seen so far looks like a great video....A lot of these features are similar to my 2013. ONe thing about closing the trunk, there is a manual pull down handle inside the trunk lid.. I use it all the time since mine doesn’t have electronic trunk closing feature

Great video, thank you. Is there a way to close the trunk from the remote or open/close all windows from the remote?

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Christopher, Thanks for watching! If you have a power trunk it will be able to open and close form the key fob. There is not a close function on the key fob for a manual trunk, just the pop open feature. The key fob can be programmed at your Lexus Service Department to power open the windows and moon room, but there is not a power close feature from the fob. The Lexus App with Enform Remote will tell you if your windows or trunk are left open, but you can not open/close them from the phone app. Just unlock. I hope this is the info you needed. Thanks so much :)

[@slugger7440]

Absolutely great tutorial. The touch pad doesn't look a awful as many car reviewers have said. Can you change the sensitivity of the touch pad to movement? Sorry if I missed this.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Thanks so much for watching! You are spot on about the Touch Pad. It has come a long way in just a few generations. They are highly customizable in the Setup Menu. I like to turn the Feedback Force down to nothing, because I don't like the popping sensation. Some people love it though, because it indicates a clickable surface. You can also speed up and slow down the cursor, depending on what works better for you. Hope this helps!

[@WillieRayPR]

3:30 if you hold the driver's door handle for 3 seconds, it will unlock all doors after unlocking the driver's door. But if you're approaching from the rear it's quicker to put your hand on the rear door handle to unlock everything as you're getting to the driver's door.

These tips work for many Lexus models now. Hope it works for you as well. Thanks for being here!

Hello again "OG" Melissa.. One more question for you. Whats the setting for turning on your headlights when you unlock your car?

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi! Great to see you're enjoying the videos! I haven't seen a setting for the headlights to always come on when you unlock the car, but you should have indicator lights flash and some interior and exterior lighting should come on at night. Make sure you have the dome lights set to Door mode. You could also go through the Vehicle Customization settings for the lights and see if there is something that might get closer to the setting you prefer. See if this one is helpful: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jqXMmqNumJyAjsU Let me know how it goes. Thanks again for all of your support!

Hi! Glad you're here. It is very common for the Map to come up by default, especially if you were on a phone call when you turn the vehicle off. Try turning off the Auto Screen Change feature in the General Setup menu, then press the Radio button to open the audio system on screen. That should help in many cases, but it will only apply to the Radio screen. I hope this helps. Thanks for being here!

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Triet, you can't remove a radio preset, just overwrite what is in that spot. Get your new station playing and then save it in the spot you want and it will replace the old saved station. For that year model only Apple CarPlay was available. Unfortunately that is not a retrofit for Android Auto in the US. 👍

Hi! Thanks for being here. I'm so glad the video has been helpful for you. The 2020 ES comes standard with Apple CarPlay and most models built after October 2019 also came with Android Auto. I would highly recommend using the NAV apps from your phone for navigation. They are a great integration with the vehicle!

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi! If you have a non-NAV base trim ES, you will have a different screen, but the setup for the Bluetooth pairing on the phone should be very similar. Menu > Setup > Bluetooth and follow the steps to remove any old phones and then add your phone. :)

[@luxurreview]

I know older Lexus like the ES330 had a calendar, service menu and maybe even notes 😂 Does this have those features?

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Luxur Review, the calendar feature is no longer on the vehicle since most Lexus vehicles have Apple CarPlay/Android Auto integration and the calendar app on the phone can be operated by your phone's mobile assistant mor efficiently. There is still a service menu on the vehicle. It is more robust on NAV package cars, but most people prefer to us the Vehicle Health Report in the Lexus App. It is part of the Service Connect feature. The Notes feature is gone, but you can use your phone's assistant to make notes in your Notes app as well. Many of the older features like these have been replaced by more advanced phone capabilities :) Gott love technology!

Hi, I have 2015 NX200T and have 3 hates about it. The mouse control infotainment screen(so I never use it at all), the single reverse light and the unadjustable back and forth headrest. I like the new ES look, does it have those annoying things?

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Danh, Sorry to hear that you aren't enjoying your 2015 NX. If you are comparing it to the 2020 ES it will be very different. Addressing your concerns: 1. They both use a touch pad to control the screen, but the new touch pad is much more customization, larger and easier to use. 2. The tails lights are completely different. 3. The ES headrests are manually adjustable up and down. I would recommend that you connect with a sales person to get more accurate information for your area. I am certified to teach Lexus technology, but I do not work with the builds of the vehicles. Thanks for watching. All the best :)

One more question, when I first got the car, the high beam has auto turnoff when it see other cars headlight. Then it stopped and I cannot figure out how to turn the auto on again. Please tell me what I did wrong?

No worries. The Automatic high beams are controlled by pressing the button at the end of the headlamp stalk. Then move the stalk forward into the "high beam on" position and the car will control them automatically. Here's the section in the video for 15:36 Headlamp Controls to demonstrate.

How can I turn off the “AIRBAG ON” sign in the right side of the screen? I mean the orange sign

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Abdullrhman, There is not an accessible setting for turning that message off. A Technician at your Lexus dealership might be able to do it, but I'm sure there are legal and safety details about why they don't permit it. When it shows "Airbag Off" it means weight is not detected in the front passenger seat. When it shows "Airbag On" it means weight/a person is detected. I hope this helps. Thanks for tuning in!

Hi, Daryoush, The Kick Sensor and Wheel Lock sets are available options and is not on all ESs. It would depend on the package that came on the vehicle you purchased. Wheel lock sets can be installed after purchase at your Lexus dealer, but the Kick Sensor is only installed at the factory. Check the window sticker for all of the equipment on your ES for more details. I hope this helps. Thanks very much for checking in with me.

Thank you for your answer. Just one more thing I forget to ask my es 350 2020 dosnt have trank key from inside my trunk also.?? And why the car from same year have to be different.??? I wish you all the best and thank you.

@@daryoushb110 I know there were some years and some packages that did not include a locking pass through from the back seat to the trunk. Is that what you mean?

i bought this car last week ... to my b-day ... i have problem with driver´s seat memory storing ... i did it same way, but driver´s seat is not stored, wheel change position correctly, as was set, but seat is still not moving ... i stored 2 different driver´s positions into 1 and 3 ... this must be something wrong or? ... i did it correctly, but still the same ... so i think must go to diagnostics ... or where could be a problem?

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi! Thanks for reaching out. It sounds like your seat may need to be recalibrated. When you move the seat doe it beep while you are making the adjustment? Also, when you press "Set" and then the number do you hear one single beep? Here's how to do a recalibration. You are basically moving each possible position to the max in each direction. So for every possible adjustment go all the way that direction, hold for 3 seconds, go all the way the opposite direction, hold for three seconds. For example: go all the way forward, hold for 3 seconds, go all the back, hold for 3 seconds. Then repeat for all possible adjustments. I have also seen this document that does it differently. Hopefully one of these procedures will help: static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10145738-9999.pdf

I have a serious question about the gas mileage on the 2020 ES 350. I’ve had the car for about 4 months and my take only fills up to 12-12.4gal the MTE indicated 250mi-260mi max. Never has it past 300mi. I need answers because I took it to the dealership with my concern and their answer sounded like BS to me. Im filling up like every 4 days 🤨 and 90% of the time I am on Eco mode. Make it make sense to me.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Paulino. I'm happy to try to help. There are multiple factors with MPG. Here are some things to consider: 1. Did the car have a previous owner? The car has learned their octane rating history and their driving habits and it has adjusted to all of that information. 2. Even though the 2020 ES can use Regular fuel, I would do three tanks in a row of Premium (that's the fuel that is frequently used for testing in research for the numbers you see on the window sticker. (It will tell you in the Owner's Manual as well. If you need to double check it.) Three full tanks will give the learning components on the car time to reset to the new octane and your driving habits. Take notes about your current MPG. Then reset your MPG calculations in the MID so that the Average after Reset reads 0. Then you will be able to start fresh while you do your research. Typically using Premium fuel allows you to get more miles per tank. 3. If you press hard on the gas and fight the eco function of Eco mode you may be using even more gas than you realize. Consider changing to Normal mode and see if you that feels better to drive light on the gas and light on the brake. 4. Check your tire pressure. Proper tire inflation helps with fuel economy. 5. Extra cargo can add weight, which can reduce fuel economy as well. I hope this helps :)

@@VP48 I wish all of the customizations could be made in the vehicle. They keep adding more and more capabilities, but not all of them are there yet. All dealerships handle charging in different way. Usually if you are there for a regular service they won't charge extra to do this, but it may be different at your dealership. I can't speak to the practices at each store. I would call your dealership and ask if it can be done for free when you have a service done. Maybe that will help.

[@kolohe4169]

Can you tell me what grade gas I should use for a 2020 ES300H? I know manual says 87 octane.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi Kolohe! Yes, the ES is designed to use Regular fuel or 87 octane. The Owner's Manual notes that 95 octane was the research octane. So you can always use Premium fuel. It will end up giving you more miles per tank. If you change fuel, it is a good idea to give it three full tanks of fuel to allow the system to learn the new rating and adjust the calculations for you. Hope this helps.

a most helpful & informative video. this poured fuel on my lust. thanks for that! a couple questions/observations..... 1:50 ... Lexus has announced the ENFORM app is ending. they *HAVE NOT* announced any plans to rescue deserted Lexus owners. 30:30 *TPWS* is _not_ an acronym. an ACRONYM is an abbreviation which can be _pronounced_ as a word. such as Mothers Against Drunk Driving... MADD. TPWS is an abbreviation, but it cannot be pronounced as a word. therefore, it is NOT an acronym.

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi. Thanks for watching and for the grammar lesson. Always happy to learn and have a good note. To correct you on your Enform update. The Enform App Suite 2.0 and the Lexus Enform Remote App content have been moved into the Lexus App. The compatible content is still there, but in a new location. Lexus owners will only need to have the one Lexus app instead of multiple apps. You are looking at a video that was made before those announcements. Videos made after the announcement have the newest information. This was also mentioned in the video about Apple Watches having issues syncing after the update.

[@googoo-gjoob]

@@NorthsideLexus , as of this minute, the Lexus site says Enform will cease to work 10/31/22. are you saying the Lexus app is the route for future?

[@NorthsideLexus]

@@googoo-gjoob You are talking about the cellular companies shutting down 2 and 3G. That will impact Enform services on older model vehicles not the 2020 ES. It is a 4G vehicle. This shutdown will impact any device, including phone, cars, etc., that have DCMs and connected services that use 2 or 3G. It is beyond the control of Lexus and Toyota and there is not a hardware retrofit that is available. So two years from now those vehicles will not have the ability for Enform services that require a cellular connection. Since you were commenting about the Enform App on a video about the 2020 ES, I thought you were discussing the latest updates to the Enform app. It was not clear that you were pointing out the announcement about telecommunications companies turning off 3G. Hopefully this clarifies things for you. If you have any feedback for Lexus corporate, I would recommend reaching out to them at 1-800-255-3987, since I am with a dealership in Houston and can't get your feedback very far up the ladder.

I hear ya and totally agree. When the hard buttons it is definitely more convenient. In our area we don't turn the AC compressor off much, if ever, because of the humidity. Even in the winter the compressor is on to "condition" the air. But in areas with less humidity, I know people like to be able to turn it off and you really have to do a lot of clicking to get there. Sorry I don't have a work around for you.

14:30 "So the rule now is every 5,000 miles or every six months you should bring your Lexus vehicle in for service." Who made that "rule"? The Lexus service center that wants my money? If I'm not driving much -- or at all -- why do I constantly need to bring in a car that you sell as one of the most reliable in the world?

[@NorthsideLexus]

Hi @Bigwave2003, vehicles with full synthetic oil only require an oil change every 10,000 miles. The Owner's Manual states that the vehicle should be serviced every 5,000 miles or six months, which ever comes first, for tire rotations, fluid top offs, filter checks, etc. Vehicles used to require much more frequent maintenance, so guess I'm confused by your questions. Most people are happy to have these longer intervals between maintenance. If you have a question about your Lexus, I'm happy to try to help.
