I have been over the manual and the menu system in the car but cannot find the manual override setting for the rear wing. l have a 2015 in case that matters. Can anyone give me a pointer to where it is?

 

It is on your steering wheel on the right side. The one you use to move from F to i to setting. I think if I can remember it is under the settings press enter or the round pic on the middle and move your up and down cursor until you find rear spoiler or wing activation on/off. Hope that helps.

 

Thank you sir! It worked. This setting is indeed on the small display in the dash so accessed through the right steering wheel control. Go to Settings scroll down, and there it is.

 

This might be a silly question, however is there a way to keep the wing up at all times?

Nevermind i found it.

 

I'm taking mine in tomorrow. I just got it a week ago, but can't get the wing to go down. Whether it's enabled in the menu or not, or I hit the button on the dash or not, it won't lower. It shows it lowering on the display, and I can hear the motor, but nothing happens.

 

There is a TSB for the active wing stuck. I had this happened to me too. I got it fixed. Initially the Lexus dealership was not familiar with this due to it's a small Lexus dealership where I took my RCF to and it is very rare at that Lexus dealership. So I gave them the PDF print out of the official Lexus HQ TSB documents. All ok now.

 

They are overnighting the parts to fix it per the TSB. They are also overnighting new brake pads per another TSB. Finally, they are working with a Lexus engineer to increase the temp of the heated seats. They have only seen a couple of RCF's, so they don't know the exact answer on the seats yet, but they claim it's possible on other models.

 

I had to leave my RCF as well for them to fix it while I drove around in the loaner. All good now.

 

Is there a way to change the speed it comes up at? Would prefer it at a lower MPH opposed to 56 MPH or what not.

 

IDK, but if you figure it out, please let us know

Thanks

 

No, it is not possible to modify the spoiler control ECU with the tools Lexus provides.

Probably would take someone some serious reverse engineering the spoiler ECU code to make this happen. If it ever does, it would be only because a very hard core RC F owner decided to take this task on and find a way to modify the code in the spoiler ECU.

The only available customize parameter is on or off. Nothing else is available through Techstream.

 

You could manually push the button
Would imagine that the wing would go up and down very often and wear out quicker. I always hit 50 on regular roads and feel like I shouldn't speed so it doesn't deploy because I'll probably hit a red light and have to stop.

 

Mine comes up at 52mph. Does it vary for others?

 

Mine also comes up at 52 mph.

 

EXCEPT if in ECO, it will deploy at 80mph instead.
