Carista Full Customization List

I'm looking for a way to make three changes to my 2025 LC '58:

1. Edit the audio sources so that Amazon music and Sirius XM don't show up as you cycle through modes.
2. Adjust the brightness of the center display as it's very bright in radio mode, especially at night.
3. Increase volume of lane departure warning when a car is sensed in blind spot.

The customization lists referenced in this thread don't seem to mention any of these, so I suspect the answer is no. But just in case someone may know of another way, I'd love to hear any suggestions.
 
Nothing for 1 or 2. 3. can be have the buzzer set to Volume 1, 2 or 3. But it would apply to everything which I don't think is your intention. These have to be done in GTS+. A simple J2534 OBD device allows this along with a GTS+ subscription.

This is what I have: Amazon.com . Running on a windows 10 laptop and connect using the Toyota software, I can do anything Toyota can with the professional scan tool minus program keys as you need to have locksmith certification.
 
I changed mine to one beep close and one beep open via GTS+. I think you can also turn off completely but don't remember for sure?
Was this in response to the beeps when closing a door with the car on? Because I'll go buy the tool and software right now.
 
Locking: Smart Key
Touch-to-unlock-doors minimum duration
OFF / SHORT / MEDIUM / LONG
After locking with smart key, don't allow re-opening within…
0.5 SECONDS / 1.5 SECONDS / 2.5 SECONDS / 5 SECONDS
Smart key location to start car
FRONT AND BACK SEATS / ANYWHERE IN VEHICLE
Does this part mean that I can use this device to unlock all doors if i touch/unlock the driver door?
 
2 questions: 1. What's the diff between the $70 and $44 carista dongle? 2. Is TIS via a J2543 generic cable a better option?

The J2543 device is better provided it works as you can do everything minus key programming and software/firmware upgrades that Toyota can do.

This is via GTS+ Toyota software.

Make sure if using a J2534 interface to attach a battery charger as poking around for 30-40 minutes looking things over in GTS+ and making settings changes will depleat the battery and render a no start condition with lots of fault codes to follow.

Really you need a charger capable of providing a stable 13.5v or so, a simple charger can turn off when the battery reaches a certain threshold ime.
 
I bought veepeak obd and able to pair it with the carista app. The shorten unlock time or turning it off doesn’t really do much at all. Was hoping I could grab the door handle to unlock all the doors like the passenger door.

Isn't that in the std setup (via the infotainment system)? I haven't checked in a while, but... seems like the driver side has an option to do drivers side only or all doors. I have mine set to drivers only, but if you keep your hand there a couple of secs longer, it unlocks all of the other doors.

I’ll go give that a try
 
Is this app locked for use to a certain vin or can you use it on multiple vehicles?
 
I made many changes last night to my 2024 LC/LC with Premium Package. Everything worked except for the Rear hatch walk away kick sensor even though I enabled it. Not sure if anyone else has had any success with that?

Hi,

Great post OP. I didn't notice a remedy to stop the normal engine turn-off at traffic lights. Is this available with the Carista and if so, is it easy to find on the index?

Thanks in advance,
Chuck A

This is not possible due to the way the hybrid system works.

I haven't needed to try that, but I don't believe so. Have you tried enabling the tow/haul mode with the button on the dash? From reading here on the forum it seems that disables the start/stop function (for free) while selected.

I'll give that a try. Thanks.
