update.

-fobs re-programmed. unfortunately, they changed my settings. they didn't return everything to default, just the things i find annoying (beeps, etc). so, I'll give it another shot.
-per a lexus mechanic at the dealership, theyre using GTS+ instead of techstream "for the newer models '22 and '23". BUT, my work order/receipt only specified Techstream.
-they werent aware of this being a problem in the '22/'23 models.

appreciate everyone chiming in!

LOVING the new ride! and daaang, it's fun to throw it into 'manual' and run through the gears. especially for a guy who's been driving the same manual transmission for 26 yrs. it really makes the throttle much more responsive.

just wish it had a brake lock for traffic lights. im so used to having both feet off the pedal. been shifting into neutral instead.

Going through twisties on mountain roads is really fun slapping that lever forward and back.
It'll also keep you from over reving if you try to downshift to too low of a gear if your speed is too high. It'll just "beep-beep-beep" to let you know you're going too fast.
There's a few places around my town where I use it for going down some steep grades. San Clemente is very hilly.
 
I guess ‘22+ 460 owners might want to look into GTS+

To be honest no experience with it



Yeah, I learned of the limited lifespan of techstream a few weeks ago when I tried to program a fob for my daughter's 2021 RAV4. Dealer only, requires live subscription for codes, for "security". :( Hardly any locksmiths can do it either. Right to repair is still there, it's just if you can AFFORD your right to repair...
 
Have you confirmed techstream with the latest firmware cable no longer works on your GX?

Dealers have to run gts due to their new car requirements but EOP vehicles like the 150 may still work.
 
if youre asking me, no. i cant find a reasonably priced 2.0 cable yet. ive learned how to run virtual machine and downloaded techstream for an xp os. but havent gotten any further.
 
OBD also changed on ‘20+ models and IIRC dropped the K-Line support that 10-19 models still supported. I think just two leads for CANBUS.

ZPC with a paper clip isn’t possible with ‘20-‘23 models

a bit greek to me. so are you saying you don't think i can use techstream at all w/ my '23?
 
Yes. GTS just stands for Global Techstream

It will likely require far newer versions than the pre-made VMs created here
