Program it for what? If you want to change how it functions with reguard to unlocking all the doors on the first click instead of driver's door first and all other doors second then that is a C-Best setting. Something the dealer has to adjust.

What's C-Best ya say? Well, just is case you didn't know I'm gonna go ahead and tell you. It's a host of features on Lexus vehicles that are adjustable by the dealer. C-Best stands for Customized Body Electronics System.
It includes things such as loundess of the beep when unlocking/locking, no beep at all, length of auto-headlight delay, etc. All Lexus vehilces have different programmable options, the LS and GS having the most.

Any idea- about how much do dealerships charge for changing CBEST parameters? It doesn't seem like it should cost them anything more than time, but you know how they're always looking for an easy profit...

You're right RX300_ATL, it shouldn't cost them any more than time. From what I understand all they have to do is plug up a tool that adjusts the settings. Simple as that. Some on the board have had their dealers adjust it for them and it didn't cost anything. I guess it depends on the dealer.
I'm surprised when the car is purchased new the dealer doesn't go through the settings with the customer to customize the settings
I'd push for a free one for the first time b/c the dealer never asked you how you wanted them set in the first place...other than the default settings. It may work, after all, that's what the settings are for...to be changed!

When you read the owners manual you'll see writing that says "To alter this feature see your lexus dealer". That is your only hint about C-bes. I have never seen a dealer charge to do this. Only takes a minute.

You never sounded like an ***. All I'm saying is the c-bes options might be too technical for a sales person to properly explain. When I'm asked about a particular c-bes option, I still need to refer to the list. But I still think it would be a good idea.

What options are there?
What other options are available? I'd love to hear what is available. So far the only one I've seen mentioned was the door unlocking order from the remote.
I suppose I could rummage through my manual, but it would be helpful if someone could post a list.

This should work, just don't turn on word wrap.

Security UP/DOOR KEY ON ON/OFF: Windows will roll up when key is locking drivers door and
held for 1.5 seconds with the ignition off

I should mention that these options do not work for all Lexus vehicles. The LS and GS have the majority of the functions. I would say the LS has all of them.
I have a file that lists what vehicle they work for, however, the file size is to big to post here and the picture file is of very poor quality. It is legible, but marginally so. If you want I can email it to whomever needs it...assuming that isn't too many people
