Ventilated seat question.
This my first experience with ventilated seats. I turn the **** to blue and don't feel anything. Should I feel air flow? Im hoping it's not super subtle. Since I just received my 570, I have nothing to judge it against.
Thanks,
Don

I do not feel a great amount of air flow, though I DO feel the cooling effect. In AZ, I have mine set to coolest.
My wife's MB S-Class does produce enough air flow to feel, but even that pales compared to the BMW 7-Series that our driver in London has. His ventilated seats (at least the front passenger), produces a noticeable flow of very cold air, when the AC is on.
As this is my first Lexus with ventilated seats, I, like you, do not quite know what to expect.
Good luck,

Lexus service said a quick way they check to see if they are working, because they have questions from owners, is they put the plastic seat protection covers on and turn the ventilation on and then they can see the plastic billow from the little fans. Is that rediculous our what? Lexus service has to trap the air with plastic to even tell if they are on?

Per this discussion, I paid notice today. The outside temp was 115F, so I needed all of the ventilation possible. Cannot tell you what the air temp, from the seats was, but with a slightly damp shirt, it was cool. It was at least as cool as my wife's S-Class MB's seats, but far from our driver's BMW 7-Series seats in London, which actually got COLD, even the June, where temps were 105F in Mayfair, and over 70 people died!
As for feeling the air, I can do that, and it feels good in AZ, though not as cold as that BMW.

I never use the cool function but do use the heater in the winter.
