Default personalized settings?

Im still not sure on what options i have to pick from...i bought my 07 CPO from 1 local owner(in his 60's) im sure we have different tastes except for that of good cars!

Can I set up an appointment at service/ dealer? Is there a cost to choosing the settings?

**sales guy said nothing about this, but i keep seeing this term personalized settings**

From what my sales advisor explained to me, Personalized Settings is a list of settings that you can customize for the car with, such as door unlock sequences, etc. See this for more specifics http://www.lexus.com/pdf/service/LS_LPS.pdf

From what I was told, each Lexus gets this done once, free of charge. It involves using the TechStream computer I think to make changes to the car's computer settings. At the dealer I purchased from, every subsequent change afterwards costs 1.5 hours labor.

I was able to get another dealer in town to do the settings for me as a courtesy. So you might be able to find a nice service department somewhere to do it, assuming there are things on that list you want to change.

Great info. I didn't even know I could take it in for this type of service. Is it free at any Lexus dealer as long as it is my first time? Or does it have to be the Lexus dealer that I purchased it from?
