I'm new to GX460. I have a green dont that looks like a small glob of paint on the drivers side mirror. At first I thought it was just some sort of marking a dealer put on for inventory or something, but looking around the lot, I noticed all the late model preowned ones had it too. Whats it there for, or I guess I should first ask, "should it be there"?

thanks in advance

 

Can you post a photo?

 

I’ve seen this referenced in other forums as possibly some production quality control mark but also curious to see photo

 

Oddly enough, when I went to take a pic, I noticed the same color dot inside the door jam/frame/whatever you call it on a car. Color didnt come out well in that pic

 

I don't have any green dots anywhere on my '23 (bought new).

 

I haven't seen any green dots on my bought new '23 either. I have seen some white or other pale colored dots on the windshield of other cars on dealer lots, but never really paid much attention to them.

dealers use different color non marking pens to denote whether a vehicle has been thru pdi or resale detailing all the time.... it's an easy way for the salesmen to know if more work needs done when showing the car on the lot or its ready to sell. Should rub right off... that's why the dots are in obvious places ones eyes would go when entering or driving the car. it should come right off with some cleaner.

 

This is kind of the answer, every dealer has a different system for color coding but these are definitely dealer made paint dots for assisting sales personnel with info about the vehicle in some way.
