Aloha,

Go to info and use the up and down arrows to toggle between a couple different screens. It's on your '14 as well

Figured it out. If the round gauge is to the right the bars show but if the round gauge is centered the gear selection shows but not the bars.

Yeah as stated here ^^^ ...... when the bezel slides across & you scroll up & down you get all the additional info screens.

What advantage do you have for changing out the sway bars?

Stiffer sway bars reduce side to side roll. The bars are attached to the car at the center, and to both wheels as well, so when one wheel goes up/down, the other will have to follow depending on how stiff the bars are.

Small update.

Booked in next Wednesday for 3M tint & OptiGuard interior protection. I'm also taking my wheels & Brembo calipers in to get OptiCoated before I fit them.

Dropped past a Prestige Paint Shop & awaiting a quote to paint & fit the TRD bodykit. Once this is fitted & the paint cured I'll be back to the crowd above to get the whole car OptiCoated.

So I just had a call from Lexus, the Enform app was not present in the Australian 2015 models when they arrived.

They have flown a technician out from Lexus Japan who is currently touring around the Australian dealerships doing the upgrade car by car.

My car is booked in next Tuesday for the upgrade
