Default Good Technical Info

I don't know if the below link has been posted here before, but it is a Lexus GS Handbook that explains a lot of the specific technical details about many of the topics/functions that are often discussed in this forum....drive modes, trans shift controls, throttle blipping, various monitors & switches, etc.

Thanks for that. Lots of interesting stuff there. It's a good reminder of the enhanced throttle response, gear ratio, and steering improvements that happen when Sport+ is turned on. What I didn't know is the VDIM is reduced. Less intervention. Also, I have
and that too is enhanced with Sport+. Lastly, having the shifter in to M mode seems to enable some benefits? Looks like more clutch / Faster shifts? Didn't know that.



And there is some safety feature info in there. But yawn. J/K.
