I just disabled all of these warnings on my Toyota with a third party OBDII reader and the Carista app, which also comes with lots of other fun options to fiddle with. Only thing I haven't figured out is how to disable the chime on startup!

I'd do it too but... My car (not a Toyota), although 11 years old, is still on an extended manufacturer warranty (which I pay to renew each year) but if I modify the system, I void the warranty.

I'm just pointing out that out because Toyota have great warranties AFAIK and can be extended up to at least 7 years old? (if you do the maintenance at Toyota dealerships).

I want to "hack" my car too but I'm not doing it as long as it's still under warranty.

Both in EU and US you have laws that say the manufacturer isn't allowed to deny you a warranty repair because of a mod unless they can undeniably prove that the issue was caused by the mod. I know of several cases where the manufacturer had to be taken to court over this but the consumer ultimately won because no manufacturer can demonstrate how using OBD reader to change your seatbelt settings can cause the transmission to fail.
