Default Lexus Enform Question

Trying to figure out the weather app. Got registered, signed up, and all that. Paired my phone to the car, but still no weather map or forcast. Whats up.

im guessing you have a 13' model year or up? In which case lexus uses HD radio for the weather services..Should be able to click on the "info" option on your menu where youll see traffic and weather up to date. The only reason you'd want your phone paired with "enform app" is to use the pandora interface or the other various included apps... hope this helps.

The '13 actually still relies on the XM data services package unfortunately... I think they started the HD radio weather and traffic in the '14 or '15

'14 models still use XM - HD Radio started on the '15s.

I'm sorry but does that mean that the 2014 LS 460 does not have a free subscription to HD Weather & Traffic? I have to buy the XM weather/traffic before it starts to work again?
Thank you,
Jeff

Lexus historically, like most car companies, don't add new features to previous years. Unfortunate.
