The factory tonneau cover is total crap. When I bought our GX it was important to me. It is now in our attic.

Presumably the newer models do require a subscription for both the app and key fob to work. I just got mine on Friday and haven't had time yet to learn and program all of the features.

Default GX 460 remote start

In September 2016 I purchased a Certified Preowned 2014 GX460 thinking that it came with remote start...well as you know it doesn't. My question to the forum is, can this function be added and still work with the Lexus remote APP?

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thank you
JW

I had no problems adding my remote start after purchase. I did shop around between dealers not only for price but also because only a few dealers would install RES+ at the time, the others would just install the regular remote start.

Viper Smart Start, best real option. Had it on my 2012 for 4+ years and never once had a problem with it, starting it from you phone is an awesome feature.

I have a 17 and was told after a year I would need a subscription for both the key and app to work.

Welcome to CL
Hmm, most here have the OEM already installed and a few installed (guessing paid someone to install) after market remotes such as the Viper. I haven't seen any posts with your dilemma and I have no clue where the OEM device is installed

Sorry, please let us know what you find.

There were 2 models for the RES. But I found directions on how to install it. They look very thorough.

How did you start it? Press Lock 3x and hold it down for 3sec?
How far away were you from the car?

are you positive you have remote start? If it came from the factory there should be a keytag with the keys, a small sticker on the driver and passenger window, and i think a warning label in the engine bay. Only way to know for sure is to see if there is an RES module plugged into the 6 pin connector down in the passenger footwell.
