on my rx350 everytime i insert the key to start the car the steering wheel will come out and up and then when i take the key out it will come down and go back in.

i attached a video of the example.

 

I believe if you have the power telescoping column it will do it.

 

its an option if you have a base 350 you wont get it

 

you need that luxury package.

 

I don't have the luxury package, but rather the sport. I still have this feature somehow.

 

well i pretty sure i have it , i'l got the NAV it should be either sport or luxury. it stop moving after i got the car service and in the my lexus log it says that they reset my system.

Do you have "power" telescoping column (the switch on the pic)? If you do, may be your power telescoping column is set to the highest and nearest to the dashboard so it does not move up and down.

 

car has memory seats and woodgrain , NAV, it's luxury package

 

my lexus tells me i got recalls, maybe they disable it to do the recall next week,,


2007 LEXUS IS350
Safety Recall ALE - Certain Lexus GS 350, GS 450h, GS 460, IS 350, LS 460, LS 460 L, and LS 600h L Vehicles - Valve Spring

This is an important Safety Recall. Please contact your authorized Lexus dealer and schedule an appointment to replace the valve springs with the newly designed ones as soon as possible.

What is the Condition? During the manufacturing process the valve springs on certain Lexus vehicles were contaminated with a foreign material. As a result, the strength of the spring might be compromised. Over time, there is a potential for the valve spring to develop a crack and eventually break. A broken valve spring may result in abnormal engine noise, vibration, and/or power reduction. In the worst case, the engine may stall or not accelerate as quickly as anticipated, which could result in a crash.

Both the sport and luxury package (neither of which have anything to do with having navigation or not) have the power tilt/telescope steering wheel.

If you have memory seats you have this option, otherwise you do not. It's that simple.

 

wr322 it's not rocket science. Does your steering wheel have the power button and the left hand side of the steering column? If it does then you just need to adjust it and program it into your programmable settings on the door. Once you program it will do all the fancy moves you a looking for. If you don't have the power button on the steering column then no one can help you as you don't have that option.

 

Ah this makes sense. Because when you do the memory doesn't that adjust the steering wheel as well?

 

Yup... memory settings will adjust:

Seat settings
Side mirror settings
Steering wheel settings
