Had new experience today. I've been running Pandora through the Enform app pretty much whenever I'm in the car for the past couple weeks.
So, today I get in the car, start it. The car connects to the phone and Pandora starts playing, but wait , it's playing two songs at once. My first thought is Pandora is screwed up, but just for fun I cycle through all the sources. It was playing Pandora and iHeart Radio simultaneously, that had to be sucking some data through my phone.
A restart of the system cleared it, but it goes onto my list of glitches I've been keeping.

I'm beginning to wonder how much of the problem is Enform-based. Ever since I went to a Windows Phone, and thus could no longer use Enform, most of my problems went away. I did get the 8500 update, which many say has not helped them, but it certainly didn't make things worse for me. Makes me hope that future Enform updates could fix this problem. Too bad they seem to update it once every couple of years.

IS THIS NOT STARTING TO REALLY GET TO ANYONE!?!?
I am getting more and more fed up with this POS system.
It's so f'n slow and delayed. Really pissing me off.
WHERE THE F IS THE FIX, LEXUS!?
Burning a customer for sure.

Had my car in for my 5K service today--the dealer is aware of the problem and so is Lexus, but as yet, no fix. The most frustrating part of this is Lexus' appalling lack of communication with its dealers and customers on this issue. There are rumors of a firmware update in the coming weeks, but I heard similar rumors in April which turned out to be hot air. Meanwhile, we wait....

I now find myself wanting to rip the controller out at times.
WHAT FOOLS APPROVED THIS CRAP.
VERY UPSET.

If nothing wrong with yours why get angry? Be glad that your car is still drivable. I see lots of 335i owners with cooling fans problem and stuck with loaners for weeks. BMW doesn't know how to fix it.

One has NOTHING to do with the other.
People buy Lexus for a reason and it's strayed FAR from what established it in the first place.
The car should NOT have been released with such an awful system, there's been NO clear communication and the fix should've been out already.
It's boiling to the point that I'd rather be in a loaner that works instead of this POS.
I absolutely disagree.
