GS300 2007 battery change

[Dracoro]

Hi

 

need a new Battery and fortunately Toyota have one in stock.

 

is changing the Battery the same as most cars? i.e. take out old and put in new (which I have done on all my prev cars) OR is there some "syncing/pairing" that needs doing that I've heard BMWs need?

Usually the 'one-touch' windows and sunroof need resetting

Thanks, that one I am aware of but never remember how to reset. As I recall just open full then close a free times?

Holding a few seconds each time.

You will also need to reset the park assist too - super easy: engage reverse gear then turn the wheel all the way to one side and then the other :)

If you are buying the Battery from Toyota,have them fit it free of charge.

Thanks all. Got Battery from Toyota (no Lexus dealers nearby and Toyota 5m from work) at lunchtime and fitted tonight, windows/park-assist all sorted.

Thankfully car worked through day to get me to/fro work/nursery-run/home.

 

battery indicator hard to read but I think Battery is original so getting on for 9/10 years old so due  replacement anyway.

toyota didn't offer Battery fitment but I also did not read this forum in time to know they did this, not bothered about doing myself anyway.
