Question GX460 “One Touch” turn signals?

Does the 2021 GX460 have the “one touch” turn signals - we just purchased one, but the normal “one touch” signal for a lane change is not working - anyone know if this has been removed from the 2021 model?

Yup! Sure as hell they dropped that too! This was still possible on MY20 and was dropped for 21...Lexus is really crapping on GX owners now

what do you mean "it was still possible on MY20"? The feature is still there but needs to be enabled via Techstream, from what I understand. I have Techstream but it's an older version that only covers up to MY2015 cars. I plan to inquire about this during my first service in few months. The dealer should be able to do it.

Can I get the dealer to do this? My biggest gripe with my '21 is that the one-touch turn signals don't work. I assumed that like a rear view camera it's pretty much table stakes for any modern car.

If you have 21 GX, you are out of luck. That feature has been removed from 21. It has only existed for 20 GX for whatever the reason with Lexus.

Ok tx for letting me know. Feels like a really odd thing to remove - curious if it was cost savings or something else.

interesting. how do you know this? do you have the latest version of Techstream and it's not there? or is there manufacturer's documentation that talks about it?

The first thing I did was to bring the car to the dealer and ask them to enable the one-touch signaling and I was told this feature is no longer available on MY21. The tech told me they confirmed with Lexus corporate, as I wasn't the only person asking for it.
