I really wish the dealer told/showed me...(post your wishes)

[Lexie]

I love my new BLACK Lexie. However, I wish I was given some good info/advice on remove the water spots. Will the Toyo Guard that came with it do the job? I looked on line at info regarding the care of Black cars and read Mother's cleaning wax did a good job.
Any ideas?

OK, depending on how paranoid you are, if someone steals your car they can find your home if you do this...so it might be a good idea to program in a place that is near your home but not actually your home.

I forget all the choices but I went to a nearby shopping center and just pushed a button and it record the lat/long of where I was, not an actual address.

- how to turn off the back-up beep
- that CD slot was behind navigation panel
- that I'd need to drill in the back to attach a cargo net

Overall, had a very positive experience with Novato Toyota in CA

Nope, the bladder is still used on the 2010. I believe Toyota is using this design to help minimize gasoline vapor emissions. So I don't think they will change back to a hard tank.

Bladder has been removed and is not on 2010. This has been discussed on numerous threads in PC. Toyota has redesign the system to comply with emission standards.

We got the Toyota extended warranty for $1599 which I was told is the employee price.

I wish the dealer told me how to disable the beeps when in reverse. There must be a way to disable this annoying feature.

Hey rjv...I grew up in Ventura from 1952-1970....we disabled the reverse beep and when door unlocks changed it to unlocking all doors...and no beeping with drivers seat belt undone....search the forums here simple to do takes a few minutes and two hands with your fob.

To change the reverse beep in the 2010 you have to go to the dealership to have it reset (from constant to 1 beep). You could do it yourself in the G2's.
