Does anyone know how to program the remote hub so that the power windows roll down? I have the 3-gen IS250 Fsport and was surprised that the remote does not roll down the windows. I had a '07 ES300 before that had the power window remote capability. Does the 3-gen IS even have this capability?
You can roll them up but you have to use the key that's in the key fob. Pull out the key, insert into the door lock and I believe it's turn it clockwise and hold until all windows and sunroof open.
Opening windows and sunroof by remote is extremely useful even if you can't raise them back up. I lower my windows and open the roof as I walk towards the car. On a hot day, you really appreciate this feature.

Maneuvering with the key in the door lock is possible without any reprogramming.
That's really weird. What's the point of being able to roll them down but not up?
Safety concerns obviously. A child or anyone can stick their head out or in and you decide to roll it up and the media once again goes on a Toyota bashing spree.
They could add a sensor to detect this, but they want to keep prices low.
The window roll down options is available on several makes. My G had this but I never used it. Just press lock and unlock at the same time. No need to take the car to Infinti to have it "programmed".
To clarify: does the dealer need to enable this feature?
Yes.

I assume it's needed in a sue happy country like the US.
