It’s a sensor on bank 1 and is in the manifold or something.

I paid Lexus £315 last week for the Master Key. Should be getting a call this week From them to take the car and get it programmed once the key arrives. luckily after paying for the key I asked the guy to make sure it’s the smart key and he said ofcourse it is and showed me a picture of it. I politely said no that’s the wrong key as I need this type of key. I don’t have an ignition key hole that fits with the key you ordered. A bit embarrassed he searched and found the right key. just goes to show they dnt know their cars aswell as they think they do. This week I will get the alloys refurbished and get a quote to get all the scratches removed. after that I will need to get the PO660 code done which will be expensive me thinks. Ifty

I hope so as I have to wait for the logbook to come. It’s a pain not having the keyless entry and button to unlock the boot. next thing I have to do is get the scratches taken out and alloys redone. Getting the LPG conversion done straight away was great as I got 315 miles from £33.

The whole unit comes out but be careful u don’t brake the clips. It could just be a loose connection so when you pull it out just push all the connections in.

I called Lexus dealer in Preston and they quoted me total £325 for the key inc Programming (£90). I have to take my log book to prove ownership and ID and they will order the key. It is a week wait and the key is precut and they will programme it for my LS430. They want £265 fixed price servicing.

I have converted my LS430 to LPG. The kit is BRC and fitted by Bham Autogas. Aircon doesn’t work and a spare aircon pump was given with the car. It’s going in for 170k service and they will look at the aircon pump too. I only have the valet key and want to get the master key. Anyone know where can I get one of these from or is it a dealer job. How much are these keys. thanks Ifty

LOL. Just my luck. my brother bought this car in Feb this year and has now sold it to me. it is as you describe body wise but there are no codes or EML so that seems to be sorted. My brother did the rear disks and pads. i have driven it today and it drives spot on at the moment. My brother did get it checked underneath from His mechanic and all seems to be fine. i only bought it coz I missed my old LS430 which I sold in 2014. looks like I will have to dig deep. I am getting the bodywork and alloys done and then getting it LPG converted on 6th July. oh well I’ll try to bring it back to it’s former glory. watch this space.

Lol You mean 100,000 miles. It's on for £5500 with air suspension etc. I owned a 52 gs430 sport with 64k miles. It turned out it had 287000 miles and had been clocked. It still drove like it had 64000 miles

Merry Xmas all. Hope u all have a good one and a fantastic 2014 Ifty

Well my installer made it very clear that it's not needed. He also drives a LS430 which he converted. Not knowing much about LPG I Told him to install it. So he did. Ifty

Lol. Trust me I am not a dodgy seller/trader from Dudley. Even though I live there. Nor is mine clocked back. All in good bantor. Got to be careful who bids. I don't know who is genuine bidder or time waster. If it sells then so be it. Otherwise I get it ready to park it in garage and use it next yr. Looking forward to the drive to London tomorrow. Actually come to think of it I have driven it over 1000 miles since getting it MOTd in October. Must be the fear that if it sells then I can't drive it. Wierd Ifty

No my eBay ID is not Ifty lol

Lol sonofadam has to be a trader. You said his selling a LS430 and wants a LS460. Hmm then why is he bidding on mine. Got to be a trader in my books. Ifty

Looks like Dudley is not a great place to sell Lexus's lol. Yes that is a LOC members car. Ifty

I was also told that the LS430 doesn't need flashlube by the installer but I had it fitted anyway as a precaution and it was only £100 extra on the install. Ifty
