Default Dude, where's my seat heat and car height *****?

My RX330 ('05 w/navigation) doesn't have any buttons for the car height adjustment or the seat heaters. There's nothing on the wood panel behind the shift **** except the AC outlet. My owners manual sez there should be. Perhaps only on the super-ultra-limited package, but I do have Navi so I thought mine had all the bells & whistles except DVD screen and Mark what's-his-name speakers. Anybody know?

Car Seat adjustments are on the bottom on the seat on the sides. Heated Seats if you got the option, will be right beside the outlet above the gear shift.

Default Dude, read my post before replying

I said car HEIGHT adjustment, not car seat adjustment. As in raising and lowering the entire car from normal to either LO or HIGH, it's in the manual, but not on my car.

And I guess I don't have the heated seat option 'cause the buttons aren't there, I already said that, but I don't know why I don't have this option, since my RX330 has the Navigation and many other bells & whistles

I thought my car ('08 RX350) was going to have the car HEIGHT option as well and the place where the button should be has just an "empty" button. I guess that's one less thing I have to think about.

Unless you have the factory air suspension you don't have the ability to adjust the cars ride hieght. The heated seats is probably just in one of the option packages you did not get on your car. Having navigation means nothing since that can be added on. Most of the option you have on your car are probably just the standard premium plus package options.

CK6 is right. you have to get the performance package in order to get the air suspension. buying a lexus is different from buying a car like a honda. Navigation does not mean top of the line.

you shouldnt be so concerned with the air suspension since even the top of the line package (which includes the rear dvd) does not have this option, since like i said before, it only comes with one package, the performance package. as for the heated seats, im willing to put my bet that your car is basically the base model with nav.

Curious to know which package does you RX have? The package would have listed out all the features included when you order the car (or the sales would go over what features are included in which package).

The air suspension is not a common option for the RX.

seeing as how he has an 05 RX330, it seems like he just bought the car used and is now perusing the manual.

The manual covers everything the car "CAN" have--does not mean its installed though! That goes for ANY and all cars. They are not going to write a seperate manual for each individual car (options) that comes out.
I just call out--seat heater on from my nav and they come on.

?

seat heater is a voice command?

edit: I was talking to my wife and had her try it.. It's not a command.
Maybe it's just always on since you're in Alaska
