Your least used GS features.
I don't understand why Lexus made a button for headlamp washer if it also washes the headlights when you us windshield wipers, it then seems pointless to have the damn button.

My answer is anything that you have to open that drop-down door to the left of the steering wheel to operate. I tried to put the sunshade up one day while driving. I think I turned everything else in there on or off before I got the sunshade to go up.
In fact, there are functions operated by those switches that I don't understand even after I read the manual.

The automated rear view mirrors got turned off in my car. I couldnt stand them. Kinda nice at first but soon they would never return to the correct position. I love the cooled seats in my car. When I leave the gym in the summer it feels good on my package....
my list is pretty long since i dont use hardly anything on the car
headlight washers
sunshade
power folding mirrors
navi (system is terrible)
dvd option (once and a while but hardly ever)
presets for seats
voice control
auto headlights
thats about all i can think of. im sure theres other options out there that i dont know. btw i use my cassette player all the time.

I completely agree 100%. It it a safety hazard to look down behind my knee and around steering wheel while driving to touch anything in that drop down. They should have integrated that all into the Navi screen or center console for better line of sight if you ask me.
[QUOTE=RenatUSSR;6070627]In my european GS it looks like this - if your headlights are on, and you use the windshield washers, the headlamp washers will automatically activate but only once, then only manualy by pressing button. Are you sure about everytime "it washes the headlights when you us windshield wipers" ?
Yeah basically everytime I press it, it usually goes off no matter if the lights are on or not!

I seldom use my sunroof either, but I've had them in more cars than I can remember. Virtually all premium vehicles come standard with them, or part of a package that has other stuff I want.

You guys complaining about headlight washer don't know what you would be missing out on.
I wish my TL had some type of wiper/wash system for the headlights. Every winter when I'm out driving at night, either freezing rain or snow. I always end up having to pull over on the side of the highway (Very dangerous) because so much snow/ice have accumulated on the lenses it looks like my headlights arn't even on. Sure, it may not clean the lenses crystal clear, but when there is ice/snow buildup on the headlamps the high pressure washers do it's job by knocking off the ice.
I also agree with some people who live in warmer climates or who may not drive their car in the winter time, I see no use for it except being a nusience when you're car is clean. A solution would be just have washer activate by button only.
