Lexus ES Incorrect Vehicle Coding

I'm seeing a fault code and error messages on my 2021 Lexus ES gasoline model with 79735 km. Diagnostics point to incorrect vehicle coding. Has anyone else run into this?

Interesting. I have an ES and recall something similar. My scanner didn't say incorrect coding, but the symptoms sound familiar. Did the malfunction indicator lamp come on?

Yes, the malfunction indicator lamp lit up with the error messages. How did you resolve the issue?

I tried some troubleshooting, but it was beyond me. I'd suggest a reputable workshop. They'll have the tools and expertise to diagnose and fix the incorrect coding properly.

I took your advice and consulted a workshop. The issue was indeed incorrect vehicle coding, and the repair cost 360€. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
