I have a 2018 with 55k miles. Recently my climate control system has been acting up.
After the car is turned off and parked for more than 2-3 hours the system seems to reset itself: temperature for all 4 zones get reset back to 72, concierge feature is turned off, and the system does not turn on when I start the car, until I push the AUTO button and the reset everything to my liking.
If the car is parked for less than 2 hours the system takes over a minute to turn itself back on after starting, but it keeps all of my settings.
Has anyone experienced this and/or have any ideas about what is going on?
Without looking into this any deeper, this screams battery issue. Somehow you're loosing power to the memory part of the system after a longer period of down time. Not enough to reset other parts but a weakening none the less.
*update*
Did a little digging, apparently if you air cabin filter isn't set in the glovebox just right, it causes issues with the system. Search this thread it goes through a couple ways to fix and check it.
And lexus says there is a way to reset the system also. Found the rx way... not sure its the same for all models.
