Get my new Rav4 13th September!

[PAISLEY1903]

My car arrives 13th September. Cant wait!

I have read about turning off lane departure - is that the steering part only people turn off to avoid it pulling to left ( I have a LOT of roadworks going on near me lasting to Oct 22!) or do you just leave it as it comes!

Maps update - would you bother if will use android auto?  Part of me just wants it all up to date!  do you leave that for a dealer to do or do it yourself..

Any tips would be welcome.  

I dont think I would have got to this stage without everyones posts, comments etc so a big thank you!  It guided me into my first Toyota 🙂

The 2021 version of the inbuilt nav isn't too bad I think.  I updated the map on the drive in about 45 mins once I'd connected the car to our wireless.  Just left it in Ready and checked on it now and then.  It's good enough for me personally not to bother with Android auto.

LTA for me is turned off and doesn't come back on automatically.

your supplying dealer really should do this as part of the PDI (but maybe give them a nudge beforehand). You have 3 years of "free" updates so it costs nothing to keep to the latest.

I have lane tracking turned off but lane guidance turned on the later works fine for me whereas tracking was a nightmare. I will try it again at some time just to see how I feel about it now I’m more used to driving the car.

Rav 4 Excel in Decuma Grey @Yugguy1970 my first venture into Toyota!

In the PHEV downloaded manual it’s page 578 Lane Tracing Assist, 9.2 Customisation.  I’m sure it will be similar on the HEV model. It’s turning off lane centring.

Nice choice exact same as me including first Toyota, not sure when I’m getting it though left the factory about 4 weeks ago.

@TeefinI can see us pinging messages back and forth soon hahaha!  

Yeah it will shortly arrive in UK in 2 weeks MAX then go to the Toyota factory here then release to dealer.  Mine is actually at the dealer right now but I wanted the Toyota ProTect applied, mud flaps and the inbuilt satnav.   

From there mine is coming up from Grimsby and my old Kuga being taken away!   (Car wow was my friend v my local dealer!)
