The seat heat on mine is perfect. My GS was always to hot so I like the nice warmth wouldn't want it to be to hot.

Works well for me too. Check the passenger side to see if there is a difference?

Default Took it to Dealer...
... everything checks out, they say. I had an ES 350 for a day. Seat heat switch at highest setting, and...not too hot, either.

I had them increase the massage function while the car was there. Guess I'm looking for Max happy endings in LS.

not sure if you are serious but I’ll ask: what do you mean increase the massage function? Like go beyond the intensity setting in the menu?

Just wondering if you went to a car dealer or AMP for that adjustment. YeHaaaaaa Have to agree that the roller massage is pretty anemic. Vibration type would have been much better IMHO Wonder if you got hot towel with yours??

I must agree my ES has more seat heat, but my LS is just fine. I remote start it on cold mornings to get it ready.
