Hi - just want to know if electronic controls are available for the rear on my wife's RX350 (aside from physically opening/closing the vent gate).

I'm too lazy to look in the manual for someone else's car, so this is a yes/no question. If there is, I'll look up the details. If there isn't, I will have saved time flipping through literature for something which does not exist, yet it would only take a nice member here 2-1/2 seconds to post a yes or no.

If not, I'd be disappointed though, because even my 2001 Acura MDX and 2015 GMC Acadia has a separate blower and separate rear air controls, controllable from both the front and rear panels.

Thanks for your help.

Never ridden in the back of mine... but I don't think so.

only swivel, up/down and open/close

Thanks for the responses.

If the joystick/joysquare interface wasn't so quirky, I would have checked myself. Going through the options on the screen is excruciating. Its horrible, especially if you are driving. If you are stationary, you still don't want to spend a few minutes to something it took only a quick flip or twist to do in traditional vehicles.

The interface really feels like I'm going through all the BIOS settings on a new an unfamiliar motherboard for the first time.

Simplified Touchscreen would have been much better. I'm a techie too and have a hard time. My wife, a Kindergarten teacher, its just too much for her. She won't touch it at all.

Besides rolling the valve up for flow and down to stop it
you can vary the rear temp by changing the drivers side
setting.
