Firmware version

bluenose1940 · February 11, 2018

My car is going in for a service tomorrow and I'm going to ask them to check the firmware version for me.

Does anyone know what the latest version number is for the NX Luxury please? I can then check what I've got at the moment to see if it needs doing.

Some dealers can be a bit funny about this and want to charge. Best to say there is an issue, like freezing or not connecting correctly to your phone, so the upgrade can be performed under warranty.

How did you get on?

When I had my IS300h, I was able to see the firmware version that was installed and, before I parted with it the version number was something along the lines of VD12103A but, when I scan through pretty much everything on my NX, I can't find any number that looks anything like this.

My car went in for service on Monday and they have told me that they did an update for me but I have no way of checking this. I could find numbers that relate to Model I.D. and Model Number, Gracenote Database versions but nothing even remotely similar to the number that I could see on my IS.

I asked in my original post if anyone knows what the current version is but no one has responded yet. Does anyone know the detail? I don't want to ask the dealer as they may think that I don't trust them.

Isn't it under setup > general > software update? Do you have the standard or premium nav?

Yes I've been down that route but, I think that you may possibly have nailed it, I had the premium nav in my IS but only the standard in my NX. Is it possible to upgrade to the premium from standard. I suppose if it is it would cost £££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££££'s eh!

It would be cheaper to sell your existing vehicle and buy one with Premium Nav!

So,isn't there a single NX owner on here who knows what the latest firmware/software version number is and where to find it?

As I said earlier I would have thought that the number would be along the lines of the IS, i.e. VD12103A but I can't find anything that closely resembles.

Do Lexus list the versions numbers for each model on their customer portal?
