What hidden maintenance screen and is it applicable to the 07 GX?

Thanks!

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last night, I put in the 6.1 version in place of my current 4.2 nav dvd in my 2005 GX. I noticed that I can not access the hidden maintenance menu with version 6.1, and now my unit has saved that setting, and I can no longer access the hidden menu after reinstalling the 4.2 dvd.

1) Does anyone know how to completely revert/reset back to version 4.2 so that I can once again use the hidden maintenance screen that is accessed from the Volume screen?

OR MORE IMPORTANTLY

2) Does anyone know where/how the hidden maintenance screen is accessed in version 6.1????

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can someone please send me the step-by-step guide? I can't access the link. If anyone resides in CO, please let me know of a local installer. I'd love to have add this feature as well as the dvd restriction over-ride.

Much appreciated!

Hi All ! Has anyone installed the Vaistech ipod interface? Im interested in knowing if this unit can control the ipod through album / genre / artist etc, or only by creating playlists like some of the other products out there.

Also can the touchscreen be used to control the ipod faetures? I have checked out the vaistech website but still not too clear on details.

Thanks!!

Alex,

You can't browse, but if you want to hear the next song on that cd, just push the up button on the touchscreen. That's as close as you're gonna get.

The unit is great, but it has it's drawbacks. Even though you are only supposed to have 99 songs in a playlist, I've got 5000+ on one, so I don't think that it has a limit. I do get some random errors because of it tho. It gets confused and will sometimes list the wrong song or overwrite, but it's well worth it

Newbie here. Just got an 07 GX. Please send a copy my way as well if you don't mind.

Will the TSB and parts replacement include a 2003 GX470 with 29,800 miles and out of their standard warranty period? Thank you.

If you make enough noise about it, you can get it done for nothing....as it should be. It's been a known issue with this vehicle and Lexus should have fixed it permanently as soon as they knew it. But, they say because it is not a safety issue, they will only fix it if a customer complains and if it is still under the 50,000 warranty.

You will see on the newest TSB that part of this service is covered to 70,000 miles and part only until 50,000 miles. Even my Lexus dealership did not know that part of it was covered under the 70,000 mile drivetrain warranty. I had to tell them to check the latest TSB.

In the end, I got the whole thing done for nothing on my 2004 GX470 with over 60,000 miles.

The newest TSB is April 2006. If anyone wants a copy of it, PM me with your email address and I will email you a PDF of it.

Thank you very much... I will speak with my dealer about it... please email a copy of the TSB to me at dlb20011@aol.com... appreciate it.
