14:17 Hey guys, Lexus Tech here. That beeping sound that happens in the drivers seat when you move it is actually something that's supposed to be removed during the GX PDI process, but all Lexus cars from factory come like that. I believe it's there to remind the tech doing the PDI to set the seat memory, so when it isn't set, it just beeps when moving it. All they had to do it move the seat through all of the maximum movements possible in the seat control, and it'll go away. Always love the videos guys, keep up the good work
Kinda right, kinda wrong. It’s a reminder that the seat ecu hasn’t been initialized. The seat memory function doesn’t work til it is initialized. Also I’m sure setting the seat memory isn’t part of the PDI process.
i agree, and i really wish they’d start doing this to cars too. imagine a new camry or accord with a modernized cube design… like something straight out of cyberpunk 2077
The Lexus and Toyota fanboys are seething now that you've mentioned you didn't buy a Lexus and you bought a Land Rover instead, prepare to be berated by them for having a slightly less reliable car
To be fair, the US, UK, & Japan have been doing great modernizing the design of a cube. All that's left is Ze Germans of which outside the G-Wagon doesn't really do a great job nowadays tbh.
Man this new GX is a winner, body-on-frame, 9000lb tow rating, massaging seats, and it looks that good? I’ll definitely pick this over a defender any day

@@jessicalacasse6205times change and the twin turbo v6 is solid, if people would stop crying about the v8 going away they’d realize Lexus is a manufacturer I’d trust to get turbo engines right
We’ll see about the 3.4TT, in the Tundra this driveline has turned out to have a ton of issues. I dont know why everyone glances over that when talking about this car. Just because its a Lexus doesnt mean it will be reliable
I have an 07 GX470 that I love to drive. It's really fun to drive and has serious off-road cred plus the V8 has good power. This new GX seems like it retains the same type of spirit of my GX.
That’s a gorgeous interior. So clean and simple, elegant and functional. Lexus and Porsche get it, they understand something that many others seem to have lost touch with. Horizontal lines are beautiful.
The beeping that happens when you adjust the driver's seat is the warning noise that tells you the memory seat is not initialized. Usually its initialized during a pre delivery inspection.
That's awesome to hear about the engine not being too stressed. When I'm on the freeway going 70 mph the LX is sitting at around 1.8k RPM. It feels like it's just relaxing the whole time. I love that and would hope it stays that way in the new GX and LX.
I know this won't ever happen considering US/Canada's views on Diesels nowadays, but imagine if the GX gets the TTV6 Diesel from the Land Cruiser 300 series which has even more torque at around 700Nm / 516lb-ft.
The seat is beeping when adjusting because it hasn’t been calibrated yet. You have to move the seat fully forward, then the back seat bottom moved down fully, then the front seat bottom lowered fully, then the seat back moved foreword fully. That will calibrate the seat and it won’t beep
@garygeorge9648 yep, that's why I put up with it. It is loud though. I've taken to wearing my NC headphones while driving on highways. It's the only way to stay sane.
14:10 Former Lexus mechanic here! The seat is making the beeping noise because it has not been initialized yet. Functions like seat memory and easy exit will not work until the seat has had the initialization procedure performed. Hope this helps!

The seat was beeping because the memory function isn't set up from factory. This is something done typically during PDI. The seat basically needs to go to all it's maximum positions to be "primed". Full forward then back, up/down, tilt, recline. They the beep will go away. Love your videos!!!
