I really don't know but the updates that I have installed (1028 and 1025) have been available since April according to the website download listed.

The updates the dealer installed via USB appear to be the 1025 & 1028 referenced above. I'm going to ask him if these wouldn't get installed automatically at some point? Per UKEE above, if these have been available since April that's a bit concerning... if I had not asked would they have ever been installed?

If you followed the instructions, and have your drive properly formatted, and it still doesn't show the update, then it sounds like a trip to the dealer will be required.

The instructions also state that you should do this one file at a time, suggesting no other files should be present on the flash drive. Also, in reference to the "automatic update" question, NO these will not update automatically. I believe the issue is the size of these major updates but that is pure speculation on my part. The bottom line is that I am sure they will not update automatically. If you can't sort it out yourself the dealer can certainly assist.

The instructions I downloaded from the link posted above specifically say to insert a USB stick with both files copied on to it.

Good to know. I believe they have altered their instructions since I did mine then. Oh well - it was just a shot in the dark.

I did check with my dealer tech guy regarding the usb updates. He does not believe they will be added to the automatic OTA updates... I’m not sure why.
Also, when he updated mine I specifically asked if both updates were on the usb stick... he said they were and they were both installed in the one update process.

Hello,
My dealer installed 1025 and 1028 today.
I am trying to find the page 'Detailed Navi Settings' but without any luck.
Would someone be kind enough helping me how to navigate to this page.
Thank you in advance.

Lexus map updates are not free. I just updated my 2016 GS350 map data for $230 with micro SD card.
