How come my Climate screen (navi) doesn't look like the one in the picture? Maybe this picture is from a preproduction version or maybe the japanese version?

Is that on a 2008? If so, it might be part of the software update.

It's not JDM as it is left hand drive. And temp shown in F. Suspect it is the updated software. No big deal, imo.

2008s don't look like that. Still the same old climate controls on the 2008s.

I'll bet if you switched off "dual" you'd get one button for both.

i only see one power button...if im right ur mistaken the button on the right that says auto as a power button...looks to me as if it is the vent options...which includes an auto for the vent....

The auto fresh/recircle air light is only available on the IS350.

One of the functions I like most in my car.

this photo is from a pre-production car. The topic was discussed 2 years ago.

on the 250 you can choose fresh or recirc, or press auto and have the system choose the correct one.

on the 350, lighting that middle LED activates the auto smog sensor, which will recirc the air if it senses smog.

the 250 you have to turn the smog recirc on manually. with another button. it turns off automatically after a few minutes

basically they seem to do the same thing with minor doifferences, i find it odd that they wouldnt just make them identical. one less part in the parts bin
