I had my dealer set my RX so that all 4 windows would roll down when I held the button for 2 seconds, but not the moonroof. I don't feel the moonroof needs to open, only the windows.

rx350drivr, let me see if I can briefly respond to some of your questions.

Basically all the doors will lock when you shift into drive and start driving. Lexus was a little behind American car companies on offering this feature.

All the doors unlock when you shift into park. Definitely would not recommend this setting for safety reasons.

It refers to the key fob's ability to do more than unlock a door, like open windows, Take a look at the video here.

Personal preference I guess. I'd leave the feature enabled and just use the button inside the glove box to prevent the tail gate from opening (i.e. when using a bike rack).

Probably refers to the fact the doors have to be unlocked first before being able to open the tail gate.

That's new to me. Maybe someone else can answer.

Full means the seat will go all the way back when you turn off the RX . Partial is maybe halfway. Or you can turn it off completely.

Also refers to the seats. Click here for more information. It may have been modified since then. Someone else will have to chime in.

I'd take the list of features you can program and go sit in the RX while it's parked in the driveway. Go through the settings to see what you like. The vehicle has be turned on to view and make any changes. And always hit save on the bottom.

2. Smart door unlocking (Default : Driver's side)
I think this is when you touch the door to unlock it - it either opens the driver's door only, or all doors.

5. Operation when the doors are unlocked (Default : On) <== What is meant by 'Operation'?
This is under the "Illumination" section. My assumption on this is:
ON = lights come on when you unlock the doors (interior lights,puddle lamps,etc.)
OFF = they don't

6. Exhaust gas sensor sensitivity (Default : standard) <== When should one change this?
I think (from the owner's manual), this has to do with the automatic setting of the AC. Sometimes, it'll change to RECIRC mode instead of Outside Air Mode based on this setting (as well as other settings). From the looks of it, you can change this setting yourself within the climate control settings.
Automatic air intake change mode
In automatic mode, the system automatically switches between recirculated air and outside air modes according to whether the system detects harmful substances such as exhaust gas in the air outside. If automatic mode is selected when only the fans are operating, the air conditioning system will turn on automatically.

8. Selecting whether the driver’s door or all doors are linked to the power easy access system (Default : Driver’s door) <== What is the 'Power Easy Access system'?
On Page 95 of the manual (http://drivers.lexus.com/t3Portal/do.../sec_01-04.pdf). It does have to do with the driving position memory (as the other post suggests)

This post is just my guess. I don't have my 2014 yet (waiting on a color combo I want). Reading through the customization settings in the manual is a joke for many settings - there are many that are confusing or just aren't explained enough.

Believe you are 100% right on with all points.

Ouch! All I got to say. That "feature" should be turned OFF by default.

Yes I just got my 2 gen gs its a 2001 but the issue I have is I had disconnected the battery to do some electrical work right. Once done plugged battery back up, but now every time I
Close driver door I walk away and all my windows roll down . Including the sunroof, I know it's a feature of the vehicle but the funny thing is that I don't own the remote key . My key is just a plain key, I do plan on getting the remote key but for now that I don't , can anyone assist me with help on fixing this issue . Thanks

If you keep the fob in your pants pocket it's a good idea to have this feature disabled. I had a '09 Lexus ES350, and while at a 4th of July party I returned to my car to find the sun roof & windows open. There were bottle rockets and air born fireworks being lit. Luckily no damage and I immediately had that feature disabled and will do so again on my '14 RX350.

I just purchase a preowned RX350, 2011

A week following the purchase, one morning i found the Windows and sun roof wide open.

Things being bad it is pouring rain and been running for hours. All the interior is soak wet.

Few days later screen is lighting all kind of défect. Motor, slip signal etc.

Not having a local Lexus dealer, my repair shop scan over 25 codes. Hé erase them but one

Question should i drive return 5 hours to the nearest Lexus dealer or get my repair shop to do

I'm not sure about your warranty in Canada. That's a call you'll have to make yourself but they would probably be the best equipped to fix it. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Disconnect the battery and see if it resets it. I wouldn't think the rain be able to flood ECUs as they typically sit higher from the floor or under the hood. Moisture can affect wiring, which could potentially disrupt CANBUS communication, and that would trigger all kind of problems. It should go away once everything had dried-out though.
If your vehicle is still under warranty, it could be prudent to drive to the dealer, to get these problems addressed.
They may not be related to rain at all.

Can I disable this feature myself thru the setting on the 2015 model or it has to be done by the Lexus dealer? Please post the procedure if available.

vlad_a

This is a dealer-only option. You can disable windows, moonroof, or both.
I have disabled the moonroof, but left windows active.

pokemon

Thank you very much.

Not sure if this is due to the fact that I was carrying two sets of remote keys or not but parked outside found all four windows and sunroof open. Now this situation had not existed for long as it had been raining and there was no rain in the car.

Why would this happen? Possibly because I had two sets of keys in my pocket? What does it take to replicate this so I can avoid it happening again!?

If you have them in your pocket and the unlock button is accidently held down this could open all windows & sunroof. You could have sat down with both sets in a pocket and another key presses against the unlock button rolling the windows down. Only takes a couple of seconds. I've seen it happen when someone sets their alarm off the same way,not meaning to.
