I just double-checked this on my app (I have an 08), and this is NOT available. Neither the seat, nor the steering wheel.

If you have a nav, it should be one of the settings available through there (again, only if the car supports it, which it's sounding like it may not).

Need to go faster than 130? I don't believe carista can change the limiter. I didn't see it at least.

I was very happy with the app.

Turned off DRL
Turned off the rear shade from going down in reverse.
Turned off seat belt buzzers, even though I always use seat belts.
Increased sensitivity of auto headlights.
Activated car unlock when put to park.
Changed setting for trunk to open on one click of the remote button instead of 2

Only thing i couldn't do is disable auto steering wheel away.

No, we don't have that setting and I don't think it's configurable at all, even by a dealer.

Thanks, we're glad you're happy with it Btw, the steering wheel auto-away is configurable, but it's a weird type of setting (technically different from all the others), so we haven't implemented it yet. It's in the plans though.

Yes 130 is very less for this car we got long highways without many Speed Cameras .. this car has a potential of around 300Kmh ... with right tires and everything its easy to hit 300kmh . i really wanna get rid of Speed limiter .. any idea Ecu tuning will help ?

Resurrecting an old thread here...

...is there much use for the Carista App in the 2013+ models?

It seems many settings can be changed via the infotainment system directly.

Does anyone use Carista in a 2013+ LS?

Thank you in advance.

No there is not. We can adjust nearly everything on a 13+ LS the app can do.

Hi Dr. J, can we really adjust everything ourselves? The manual shows that many vehicle settings can only be changed by the dealer. For example, quoting an earlier post,

Can we really change these functions?

Best wishes,

Like I said nearly all, some of those you can some of those you cannot, consult your owners manual, it's in there. I set my car up to my preferences.

no, I won't. Carista said they'd look into it but that was a while ago.

Still haven't figured out how to save height adjustments with techstream, but then again I haven't played with it much over the past couple months. Let me know if you figure it out.
