Actually all the information OP provided are in the User's Manual.

Can we link the locking with both shift position and vehicle speed?

Great info Now all I need is to know how to reprogram the key to unlock all door with 1 push, without going to the dealer.

Thanks for reposting.

Although I caught these tricks a while back and used them, its always good to bring it up again for those who weren't lucky enough to catch it the last time.

Before I took delivery of my 06 GX, I had the dealer make a few changes to the standard LPS, one of which was to open all doors with one push of the remote key and I also had them turn off the Daytime Running Lamps. I hate those things.

Does anyone knows how to disable the auto-tilt and telescope function of the steering wheel? Just tried the unlocking the door when in park function, it works, but I don't really like the doors unlocking every time I put the GX into park. So I disable that function and I also disable the autp lock function when I put the transmission into drive also. The auto lock function is good safety feature if you have young kids in the car, but I don't. It is now a totally manual system, just the way I like it, no more opening doors with the door lock engaged and possibly damaging the power door lock.

Now, only if someone can help with disabling the auto-tilt and telescope function of the steering wheel, that would be great.

On my 05 GX, I had the dealer turn the auto tilt away function off, but after a month, I did miss the feature, So when I picked up my 06 GX, I left the tilt away feature intact and instead I had them turn the DRL's off along with a few other changes to the LPS. So, yes the dealer can turn the tilt away feature off by going into the LPS. But I believe this only applies to the 05-06 GX.

My only concern with the auto tilt function is that it is operated so often that it may shorten the life of the motors that drives it.

Yes they can. Although my dealer initially said no, when I gave them the volumn, chapter and the page number of the Lexus Service Manual, then they had no choice. They said that they never had a customer that asked to turn those darn annoying DRL's off. So I taught them something new.

Thanks for this, I just set it up and it worked. It took a few tries to get the timing right but it did work. Thanks for the info!

The DRLs are a good safety feature. What is your reason for wanting to turn them off?
