Default RX450h SE-i 2010 Mods / Customisation

Hey sorry I thought I’d put all my 2010 RX450h SE-I car mod/customisation questions in one bunch:

1) The parking sensors despite being set to the further green bar still only seem to register close to an object. My Kia would beep from the front even in drive-thrus behind the other car. Could I ask Lexus during my service to add 2 sensors to the front and adjust/check the other 2 and the rear 4 are working correctly?

2) I’m going to try and ask Lexus for the part Q-Safe Blinker 01 kit so that I can install comfort 3 indications, but could I ask Lexus to increase the volume of the signals as they’re only audible with music or talking?

3) I kept getting TRC OFF displaying whenever stationary or driving casually around, afterwards I saw I had a slow puncture on my rear right and changed the tire. I had assumed the TRC OFF appeared due to that but it’s still popping up, is this a fault as I’m not driving recklessly? Also, does 2010 RX450h SE-I have tire pressure sensors? With my Kia I would get an orange symbol on the dash showing {!} which meant a tire was low, however, the tire that needed changing was down to 18psi but no warning appeared, if the car doesn’t have them, is there a small mod to add the function?

4) Finally, 😊 with regards to MPG. When I first collected and put petrol in the car I drove home on the motorway and stuck eco mode on and stuck to 60mph, I managed to get the average to 38mpg, however, it has dropped now to 33 with around town driving. I had wanted to install side steps but worry that will drag the mpg down more, apart from fully aired tires, driving with a gentle foot, and eco mode, is there anything that can increase the mpg? Maybe an eco remap? Or an additive to the petrol?

5) Finally +1, whenever I put the head unit onto the radio or Bluetooth or climate, it automatically after about 10 seconds takes me back to the setup menu, is there a way to stop this from happening?

Thank you!
