+1

removal of the key cover is a total waste of time, just to roll up your windows.

However i do wish they had incorporated that function into the remote.

first off, I KNOW YOU CANT ROLL UP YOUR WINDOWS WITH UR SMARTKEY....

My question is, how do you change the option from opening your sun roof all the way, to just making it "tilt"?

I love when I can open all my windows by holding down my unlock button, but I don't like opening my sun roof. I like the "tilt" feature better.

Lucky I live in Oz, I can open and close all windows and sunroof just by holding the lock/unlock buttons on my remote.

The key feature is useless, too much hassle, might as well do it from inside the car.

Has anyone ever thought of swapping a US ECU that controls things like that with an ECU from another country? That might work...

if you hold the remote on top of the windshield for 35 seconds it will auto open the gas door and turn the fog lights on.

WTF?!?!?! Really?

And does anyone still know how to change that feature? Tilting my sun roof instead of opening it?

Can't see it costing more than the actual parts themselves. I bet the little box even looks the same, and is 99% the same other than slight software change. Aussie dollar fell in value vs the US dollar, it might be cheaper than you think. You can go one step further and get the ECU for the reversing camera as well, you'll get the park assist guidance with it, apparently the US IS250 doesn't have it. I'm not sure what other parts would be needed for it though, as it is linked up somehow to the wheels...



The lines on the screen move as you turn the wheel, pretty cool!

Just ask your dealer to change the setting.
