I purchased this vehicle 2 weeks ago. After driving my 2011 RX 350 I have found the learning curve steep and have been reading websites and watching many video tutorials. Your tutorial stands “above the crowd” with clear, concise, informative and demonstrative instruction. Kudos!
Thank you so much for your vey kind comments! I'm so glad the video has been helpful for you. You may have this already, but in case you need Part 2, where I go over the new multimedia system here's the link: th-cam.com/video/mpSOpZVFep4/w-d-xo.html and this is a very short little Tech Tip video about the most common things I find people needing help with: th-cam.com/video/-nIaDAoIjx0/w-d-xo.html I hope you will continue to enjoy your new RX. Thank you again for your message!
Thank you for your wonderful presentation, very helpful and informative. I just bought my rx 350 h and have not been able to activate the dash camera don’t know the said and password, these details are not visible to me
Just wanted to say that I'm very impressed by the thoroughness of this video and the presentation. This should be an official Lexus training video, it was that good.
@@jojo2717 Hi! Congrats to your Mom. Yes, the 24 RX has a spray washer for the backup camera lens also. It is smaller and tucked up into the housing, but it operates with the rear window sprayer also. Thanks for checking.
I have had my 2024 RX 350 for less than a month and I have been trying to read the Owner's Manuals. The illustrations are so small that I was frequently unable to figure out which buttons they were referring to. Your tutorials have taught me more than I had been able to get out of many long sessions slogging through the owner's manuals. I still think I have more to learn and will be watching them again. and maybe even a third time.
I'm so glad my videos are helping you learn more bout your RX! The manuals can be really tough to get through now days. Thanks very much for tuning in with me!
This should be mandatory viewing for 2023/2024 RX350 owners 😊 This tutorial is excellent…. definitely my go-to to review any features I want/need to know about. I love the index that allows me to access directly the portion of the video related to the specific feature I’m interested in. Kudos 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Finally received my special-order Nori/Palomino 2024 Lexus RX350h Premium+ with all the packages - simpy a dream. And, THANK YOU Melissa O'Connell for amazingly informative video tutorials 1 & 2. I've been watching them and learning for the past 10 months while waiting on my dream SUV to arrive - the Lexus is a GREAT retirement present to myself!!!!
I just brought this exact vehicle for my retirement gift. Great minds think alike. 😊Congratulations on your retirement. May you live long to enjoy your blessed gift.
Just bought an rx350h and my salesman does not even know half of what the car features. Your video is so detailed, concise, very informative and the patience that went into making this video . 5 stars !!!!!
Thank you for taking the time to do this! Personally, I didn't think I'd watch this from start to finish, but, I realized it's better than trying to comb through the owner's manual page by page, in my opinion. Having actual visuals on features in action really does help. On to part 2!
So happy I found your video. In my humble opinion, you have done the best job of explaining my new car. In fact, you have done an AWESOME job of explaining. I am definably going to watch part 2.
Amazing education session! It is very hard to read the manual without being in the car to try things out. This video was very well done, narration and video of each function. It is great that you have an index to the various topics so you can go back and repeat a section if needed. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to put this together!!!!! I wish every vehicle had this kind of resource. Al Donn, Tampa, FL
This woman is magical! I’m thinking of buying one of these and I swear this is a huge selling point - it shows the car super up close and spotlights all the cleverness Lexus has baked into it. All Lexus dealers should thank Northside Lexus for this.
Thank You Melissa for another excellent masterclass. No amount of reading or self teaching would cover this much detail. Moving from an NX350H FSport to an RX500H you cover the differences in perfect detail
WELL... first, the car is rich with wonderful features. second, it is not overly intuitive - which means your videos are valuable as you may not figure a lot of this out without some help. third... OH MY, what a wonderful, wonderful job you have done. Exhausing several hours of just part 1, BUT.. it sure makes the car more user friendly!!!
I'm so glad you are enjoying your RX! You have me cracking up with your comment and real world experience of the learning curve that goes along with this new system. Thank you for slogging though the tutorial with me. LOL! I know it is a ton of information. Hopefully the Index will make it a bit easier to manage. Glad you're here!
Wow! This is great! I haven't even bought mine yet (waiting for 2024 at this point, since we're in July) and getting to familiarize myself with it like this is fantastic! Especially since my dealership is about 3-hours away! THANK YOU!
That is awesome! I'm so glad to help! the 2024 should be pretty identical, since the redesign just happened for 2023. If there are changes this soon, it could be with color selection or packages. They haven't announced anything yet, but I will be staying tuned with you for sure! Thanks for tuning in with me!
I’m not even in the US, I’m in the U.K. and I’m not even thinking of buying a Lexus (well I wasn’t). However, I watched the whole video from start to finish. This lady really is superb, top quality tutorial video. You know what, I might just go and visit my local Lexus dealer……I’ll add to my list along with Mercedes and Audi.
Picking up my 2024 RX350 on 4-24-24. You are awesome for posting these videos. I used them for our ES350 since our dealer did not spend much time with us. Thanks for all you do.
I just picked up my new 2024 Lexus RX 350h luxury trim SUV this afternoon and while my salesperson did a great job of reviewing all the features, these videos, Part 1 and 2 are super helpful for more detail and to reinforce what I already know. They are so expertly done! I’ve purchased every new model of the Lexus RX hybrid since 2007 in essentially the same color, grey with a black leather interior and this 2024 model is superb! Thank you for all your time and attention to detail in producing these videos! Super helpful!😊
Your tutorials are extremely thorough, and done in a perfect pace. I'm currently driving a '17 RX350 Luxury, and it's time for me to soon get a '25. There's a lot to learn first. Thanks for doing these.
Thank you so much for your kind words and support! Moving from a 17 to a 25 will be definitely be a big change, but you can do it! And hopefully you will love it!
Wow! Your work is always so excellent, so clear and thorough. This walk-through is so much better than what the technology specialist at my dealership provided! I really appreciate you covering the unusual but necessary steps such as accessing the vehicle when power is off, and locking the vehicle with the mechanical key when the engine is running. I'm only part-way through part 1, I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of this excellent video.
Thanks so much, Christopher! I'm so glad these are helpful for you. Can you imagine a 4 hour tutorial when you first pick up a new car. That would be a brain melter for sure. LOL! Thank you again for your support and congratulations on your new RX!
Great videos! I just ordered my new 350h the other day. I was able to get all the basics of the systems from both videos. Your chaptered videos will make it easy to reference various features once I take delivery. Thanks! Lexus should make your videos their standard for the english speaking world.
You are so sweet! I'm happy to be able to help you prepare for your new RX350h and to make the most of every feature when you have it! Thank you for tuning in with me and for all of your support!
Just bought a '24 350H and this has been so helpful even coming off my '22 350. A lot of similar items but still so many changes. Will have to watch part 2 as well. Thanks for all your work on this.
Melissa, after buying my RX450h+, I spent 2 hours with Ken Lavender at Jim Hudson Lexus, Columbia SC discussing the vehicle. This vehicle is very TEC heavy, and 2 hours with Ken was just scratching the surface. He suggested I watch your videos and I have been studying your tutorial(s) as if I'm prepping for a college exam. I find myself going back to your videos repeatedly to go back over particular segments while I'm customizing settings in the vehicle. The time stamps are invaluable to do these segment searches. Just wanted to take a moment to thank you for putting together such a valuable tutorial.
Hi Morrey! Sorry for the delay. When you sent this comment I was actually at a Lexus training in Dallas WITH Ken Lavender and a lot of other Lexus Inner Circle team members! The notification came to my phone and I got to share it with Ken right away! You really made both of our days! Thank you so much for your kind words of support! Congratulations on your new RX450h+ it is such an amazing vehicle!
Great video, as I learned so much from it! You did a wonderful job explaining everything. I really needed this so I can use all the features in my new RX 350 H. Looking forward to Part 2. Thank you for putting this together. I know it takes a lot of time to do a tutorial so in depth.
Fantastic Tutorial, I have Read the Manual for the RX450H+ & this covered many more features than the USER Manual & what a teacher. 5 Star review sincere thanks. Chris UK😃
@@NorthsideLexus Melissa, thank you for doing these. They are EXTREMELY helpful. My 88 year old father just got a new RX and has been overwhelmed by 'everything'. Having the dropdown list with the time stamps is HUGE! Can we get someone - at the Toyota dealerships / corporate / you / Toyota Technology Specialist - to do these "Deep Dive Tutorials" for the Sequoias and 4Runners? 😁(I'm assuming you guys are a Lexus exclusive dealership)
Great videos on the details of the 2023-24 RX. I went back and watched them again before taking a test drive this week, and that certainly helped me from looking like an idiot during the test drive! I just ordered my 2024 RX500 today.
This is an excellent video. Thank you!! It answers so many of my questions and shows features I didn't even know the car had! Great job Melissa and Northside Lexus!
Thank you so much for being a nice mentor. Regarding the e-transmission shift on a SLOPE or INCLINED parking space.…shifting to D from P ..or shifting to P from D…there is thud sound with a transmission jerk while shifting…2024 Lexus RX 350 turbo…No problem on flat surface …if possible..Can you advice please…Thanks
Hi! There is a feature on the vehicle that will help it to hold in place temporarily while you move your foot from the brake to the accelerator peddle, when it engages you can hear it. It is similar to the feature that will hold you on a hill for a few seconds when you have the vehicle in Drive and have come to a stop, then move your foot to apply the accelerator. You can try pressing the brake a little longer and a little more firmly until the shift is complete and see if that helps.
wow this video should be featured in the RX manual. One of the few tutorials that I didn't skip a second of. Thank you! question: are there drawbacks in keeping brake hold on all the time, meaning every time you come to a stop, e.g. red light, hills, traffic jams, you'll no longer have to keep your foot on the brake pedal? I just don't see a reason not to leave it on all the time, especially when driving in the city.
I think for normal day to day driving most people don't like to have to reactive the feature each drive cycle. I haven't seen any research on the feature being used for every drive. That would be a great question for your Lexus Technician since they are much more knowledgeable about how maintenance for the parts that operate the system would be impacted. Thanks for being here.
You are a life saver. Thank you! ♥️ I just picked up a 2023 RX350. Can you please explain best way to take through car wash. Does PARK break have to be disengaged? Have read so many different explanations
Happy to help! Congratulations on your new RX! Here's what we recommend for going through a car wash: Select the shortcut menu (it looks like a little ice cube tray, but the "Climate" tab in the middle of the main screen), I like to turn off Parking Support Brake (PKSB) & Parking Assist (PKSA), then make sure to turn off the Auto Windshield Wipers. If you need to keep the car in Neutral for your type of car wash, you will pull the gear shift to the left (follow the arrows, toward the driver) and hold it in place until Neutral lights up. At the end of the car wash, you will apply the brake, shift into drive and then you can turn your features back on before your drive. I hope this helps. Thanks for being here!
Melissa, how can we disable school zone popups on the infotainment screen? It's really annoying. I can disable reading the speed limit signs, but not the school zone signs. If not possible, please ask Lexus to fix. Or give us an option to disable during summer months, and from 5pm-7am. Thanks.
Hi! I unfortunately there is not a setting for that customization. I know Lexus has received feedback about that popup. It would be great to be able to toggle it on and off. I'm sorry I don't have a fix for you on this one. Thanks very much for being here.
Great videos both parts 1 & 2! Just purchased a new RX350 and this is most helpful. Wondering about parking assist do you do a video on how best to use that feature?
Hi! Sorry for the delay. The Park Assist system responds to stationary objects at about three feet or closer, as long as the sonar sensors can "see" the object. When the system is on, it all happens automatically. If you are parking in a garage or something like that, you can tap on the screen to mute the alert sound and still see the visual aid. Do you have a specific scenario that I could help with? Thanks for being here.
@@NorthsideLexus Thanks for the response. We just purchased a ‘24 RX 350h. Your tutorials were so helpful in learning more about the vehicle and all its features. You do a great job, keep the videos coming!
Hi! There is a well hidden setting called ACC Customize. Settings > Vehicle Customize > Utility : ACC Customize When it is Off, it means the car can operate certain accessories while off (until you open the driver's door). When it is set to On, it means the car must be on to operate those accessories. The radio and main screen will stay on until you open the driver's door, or the system times out to protect the car's battery. (I'm not sure what that time frame is.) I hope this helps! Thanks for being here!
Hello, I’ve been enjoying your videos and really appreciate it. Can you tell me what to do? I have a Lexus 2020 450H + with all of the accoutrements all the features basically the highest level; can you tell me how to put it through a car wash? What to turn off. Etc. Thank you.
Hi! Thanks for checking in. I really need to do a video on this. It is a popular question. Here's what I recommend: 1. Turn off the automatic windshield wipers 2. Open the features shortcut screen (looks like an ice cube tray, small tab by the Climate tab on the main screen): Turn off, PKSA, PKSB (Park Assist and Parking Support Brake). Basically you want to turn off anything that beeps or applies the brake if the Parking Support Alert is beeping at you ;) 3. Shift into Neutral if your carwash requires that. (Move the gearshift to the left and hold for a couple of seconds.) Then at the end of the wash, apply the brake and shift into drive (left and back) I hope this helps! Thanks again!
Excellent tutorial. My 2025 RX350 mirror,steering wheel and seat does not go to programmed set position 1 after using the key to remotely start. It works using the Lexus app and in starting the car normally. If you have any suggestions please help. Thanks so much
Hi! Glad you're here. That's interesting. A bet the seat is moving to a previously auto saved seat position. I would unlink and relink your key fob to your profile. Then make sure everything is in the right position and press the Set then #1 button to refresh the saved position. Then drive for a little bit (just make sure you go over 3 MPH.) Make sure to unlock the vehicle from the driver's door and see if that gets it to work correctly for you. Hope this helps!

@@NorthsideLexus Melissa, thank you for doing these. They are EXTREMELY helpful. My 88 year old father just got a new RX and has been overwhelmed by 'everything'. Having the dropdown list with the time stamps is HUGE!
Can we get someone - at the Toyota dealerships / corporate / you / Toyota Technology Specialist - to do these "Deep Dive Tutorials" for the Sequoias and 4Runners? 😁(I'm assuming you guys are a Lexus exclusive dealership)
Great videos on the details of the 2023-24 RX. I went back and watched them again before taking a test drive this week, and that certainly helped me from looking like an idiot during the test drive! I just ordered my 2024 RX500 today.
You are so sweet! I'm glad it was helpful for you. Congrats on the 2024 RX500h order! That's very exciting!
This is an excellent video. Thank you!! It answers so many of my questions and shows features I didn't even know the car had! Great job Melissa and Northside Lexus!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks very much for tuning in with me!
Excellent Lexus videos. Thanks SO MUCH!
Thank you! So glad you're here!
I enjoyed this video a lot. Better than reading the manual, sometimes you need to see it. Manual movie I call it. 😅
"Manual movie!" I love it!🥰Thanks so much for being here to learn with me! I'm so glad it was helpful for you!
I learned so much. I have had my vehicle since end of May. Didn't know a lot of this. Thank you.
That is great to hear! Thanks so much for tuning in with me! Congratulations on your RX!
I could either watch Killers of the Flower Moon or your tutorial video. I chose your tutorial.
I say, watch both ;) Thanks very much for tuning in to learn with me though! I really appreciate you being here!

Thanks so much. My phone is called Michelle's iPhone because it is a department phone at the dealership, so it can be very confusing 😉
That's me! 🖐️👍😃 Thanks so much!
No worries 😁

Thank you so much for being a nice mentor. Regarding the e-transmission shift on a SLOPE or INCLINED parking space.…shifting to D from P ..or shifting to P from D…there is thud sound with a transmission jerk while shifting…2024 Lexus RX 350 turbo…No problem on flat surface …if possible..Can you advice please…Thanks
Hi! There is a feature on the vehicle that will help it to hold in place temporarily while you move your foot from the brake to the accelerator peddle, when it engages you can hear it. It is similar to the feature that will hold you on a hill for a few seconds when you have the vehicle in Drive and have come to a stop, then move your foot to apply the accelerator. You can try pressing the brake a little longer and a little more firmly until the shift is complete and see if that helps.
Thanks for the detailed response. I appreciate it. Happy holidays!
wow this video should be featured in the RX manual. One of the few tutorials that I didn't skip a second of. Thank you!
question: are there drawbacks in keeping brake hold on all the time, meaning every time you come to a stop, e.g. red light, hills, traffic jams, you'll no longer have to keep your foot on the brake pedal? I just don't see a reason not to leave it on all the time, especially when driving in the city.
I think for normal day to day driving most people don't like to have to reactive the feature each drive cycle. I haven't seen any research on the feature being used for every drive. That would be a great question for your Lexus Technician since they are much more knowledgeable about how maintenance for the parts that operate the system would be impacted. Thanks for being here.
Very helpful video!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Complimenti, veramente un gran bel video, fatto molto bene e spiegato benissimo 👏

Thanks!
You are a life saver. Thank you! ♥️
I just picked up a 2023 RX350. Can you please explain best way to take through car wash. Does PARK break have to be disengaged? Have read so many different explanations
Happy to help! Congratulations on your new RX! Here's what we recommend for going through a car wash: Select the shortcut menu (it looks like a little ice cube tray, but the "Climate" tab in the middle of the main screen), I like to turn off Parking Support Brake (PKSB) & Parking Assist (PKSA), then make sure to turn off the Auto Windshield Wipers. If you need to keep the car in Neutral for your type of car wash, you will pull the gear shift to the left (follow the arrows, toward the driver) and hold it in place until Neutral lights up. At the end of the car wash, you will apply the brake, shift into drive and then you can turn your features back on before your drive. I hope this helps. Thanks for being here!
@@NorthsideLexus Will turning off Parking Assist turn off all proximity sensing beeps?
Thank you for this in depth video very helpful!!!
Thanks very much! So gad you're enjoying my tutorials!
Awesome Video!
Very informative video, thank you
So nice of you to chime in with your support! Thanks very much for being here!
Whoa…didn’t know you guys have a YT channel…been searching inventory at North & Westside for an Rx 😂
Awesome! So glad you found us! I hope you find the RX you're looking for! It is such amazing vehicle!
Melissa, how can we disable school zone popups on the infotainment screen? It's really annoying. I can disable reading the speed limit signs, but not the school zone signs. If not possible, please ask Lexus to fix. Or give us an option to disable during summer months, and from 5pm-7am. Thanks.
Hi! I unfortunately there is not a setting for that customization. I know Lexus has received feedback about that popup. It would be great to be able to toggle it on and off. I'm sorry I don't have a fix for you on this one. Thanks very much for being here.
Great videos both parts 1 & 2! Just purchased a new RX350 and this is most helpful. Wondering about parking assist do you do a video on how best to use that feature?
Hi! Sorry for the delay. The Park Assist system responds to stationary objects at about three feet or closer, as long as the sonar sensors can "see" the object. When the system is on, it all happens automatically. If you are parking in a garage or something like that, you can tap on the screen to mute the alert sound and still see the visual aid. Do you have a specific scenario that I could help with? Thanks for being here.
@@NorthsideLexus Thanks for the response. We just purchased a ‘24 RX 350h. Your tutorials were so helpful in learning more about the vehicle and all its features. You do a great job, keep the videos coming!
Thank you - Much appreciated
So glad to have you here!
@@NorthsideLexus every Lexus dealer in the world should pay you for these videos - so helpful
This is fantastic.
Thanks so much for tuning in with me!
When turning off the engine. How do you keep the infotainment system on instead of the power turning off?
Hi! There is a well hidden setting called ACC Customize.
Settings > Vehicle Customize > Utility : ACC Customize
When it is Off, it means the car can operate certain accessories while off (until you open the driver's door). When it is set to On, it means the car must be on to operate those accessories. The radio and main screen will stay on until you open the driver's door, or the system times out to protect the car's battery. (I'm not sure what that time frame is.) I hope this helps! Thanks for being here!
Hello, I’ve been enjoying your videos and really appreciate it. Can you tell me what to do? I have a Lexus 2020 450H + with all of the accoutrements all the features basically the highest level; can you tell me how to put it through a car wash? What to turn off. Etc. Thank you.
I mean I have a 2024 Lexus 450H + (typo)
Hi! Thanks for checking in. I really need to do a video on this. It is a popular question. Here's what I recommend:
1. Turn off the automatic windshield wipers
2. Open the features shortcut screen (looks like an ice cube tray, small tab by the Climate tab on the main screen): Turn off, PKSA, PKSB (Park Assist and Parking Support Brake). Basically you want to turn off anything that beeps or applies the brake if the Parking Support Alert is beeping at you ;)
3. Shift into Neutral if your carwash requires that. (Move the gearshift to the left and hold for a couple of seconds.) Then at the end of the wash, apply the brake and shift into drive (left and back)
I hope this helps! Thanks again!
Thanks so much for your immediate reply. This should help a lot all the best appreciate it.
1:35:12 It’s possible to turn on Break Hold permanently? Because switching on every time when I started to drive is very annoying.
Hi. Unfortunately it is not possible to permanently enable the Brake Hold feature. It resets each time the car is turned off. Thanks for checking in.
I don't want to spoil the ending but Part 2 is also excellent....
Thank you for all of the amazing support over the years @Berniekitts1786 🤗you're the BEST!
Part 2 of 8 ??
Excellent tutorial. My 2025 RX350 mirror,steering wheel and seat does not go to programmed set position 1 after using the key to remotely start. It works using the Lexus app and in starting the car normally. If you have any suggestions please help. Thanks so much
Hi! Glad you're here. That's interesting. A bet the seat is moving to a previously auto saved seat position. I would unlink and relink your key fob to your profile. Then make sure everything is in the right position and press the Set then #1 button to refresh the saved position. Then drive for a little bit (just make sure you go over 3 MPH.) Make sure to unlock the vehicle from the driver's door and see if that gets it to work correctly for you. Hope this helps!
Great presentation, save me lots of efforts and time~~~
Awesome! Thanks so much for tuning in to learn with me! 👍
