  1. So I ordered the part off Flea Bay from the Lithuanian guys, turned up today and is absolutely immaculate. Now I could do with some advice on how to fit this replacement part, is it doable from the end panel as suggested above ?
  2. I'm looking for either a replacement switch cluster or the part number for my F Sport. The cluster has the Auto Headlight switch and the tailgate release switch with the other 2 blanked off. I have seen used replacements for Lithuania on yje usual auction site, but they have more switches,(HUD etc ) where mine is blank. Can anyone let me know the part number for replacement, or will a used part with extra switches install and work out. I somehow managed to crack the pushbutton and Lexus won't fix it under warranty. TIA. Chris.
  3. I am still getting to terms with my F Sport and have set up Lexus Link on my iPhone. Looking under service I can see a repair in Feb 2020 [LSC]:LGG25_Lexus RX 2017 & Can anyone enlighten me as to what this means? Is there a list someone for these sort of Lexus Codes? TIA Chris.
  4. My F Sport rear door motor sounds different to my old SE-L motor, and more powerful. Bonus having the swipe badge opener.
  5. Decided on an F-Sport with red interior as once you're sat on it it is not so bad on the eyes, i'll probably learn to like it. It it an 18 plate and has paddles but no HUD but not really bothered about that.
  6. Well i finally caved in in trying to further diagnose my problem, pbd not working and audio system and cameras also not working. I took it to Lexus Crawley (Motorline) and left it with them for 3 days to inspect. I appears that I have had water ingress from under the rear top spoiler which has taken out the motor, part being £700 plus vat and installation. The audio system has also suffered and needed replacing at £1700 plus vat and installation for an exchange unit. Bill was looking at around £4k so they have taken it in part exchange for an 18 plate F-Sport RX due to arrive for me mid week. Might have taken a hit by i'm getting on so g=havent the time and energy to fix myself unfortunately. will post photos when arrives,
  7. When did the 4RX begin its life? i have read the 3RX specs at top of this forum, does anyone have similar for 4RX. If I have to trade in my 59 plate RX450H SE-L i am looking for something with same spec or better. I am not keen on an F Sport with a red interior but would appreciate the extra toys like HUD and Paddles, but wonder whether I would really use them. I have seen the latest brochure from Lexus so understand the new toys available but not sure when the 12" touch screen was introduced, as am probably looking at a used 2017-18 vehicle. Does your 17 have paddles and HuD and is screen touch ?
  8. Contemplating changing my SE-L. Looking at Advance and F Sport models. F Sport is it the only model with single odometer display and is it customisable to display various options ? is it the only one with Flappy Paddles and HuD as standard ? TIA
  9. i have a 59 plate SE-L I may be selling - depends on what Lexus will give me PX. 96k miles black with ivory interior.
  10. Have you checked to see if the height sensor rods are all intact ?
  11. I am trying to find the part numbers for the headunit and amplifier for my SE-L with Mark Levinson sound system and DAB, before I pull the car apart to find them out. Can anyone help with this please??
  12. could you send that info my way Herbie? Same issue as described above, RX450h 2009 after Lexus Gatwick replaced battery thanks Chris.
  13. I had to have my auxiliary battery changed as it had died. Called he AA and they diagnosed a sick battery. ignorer to get to the battery I small battery was attache to the positive and negative attachment points in the fuse book in the bonnet. this allowed to unlock the power tailgate to get access to the battery. This was diagnosed as faulty. No 3rd party batteries were available so had to bite the bullet and get Lexus Gatwick to fit a Lexus supplied one. This was fitted by them and cost £236. I now have problems using the sound system (Mark Levinson) and the cursor control system for Sat Nav and setup etc. I have access to Techstream so checked and found A B15D0 fault MOST Communication Malfunction. Looking this up has pointed to amplifier failure, short in speaker wires. i found an article that spoke about switching on the engine with the radio switched on and to fix it i should put the car on auxiliary without starting the engine then switch the radio off. This i tried, switching to auxiliary gave me my audio system and cursor control back. However when i turned the radio off followed by starting the car, I lost audio and cursor again. I am guessing that replacing the battery has upset something. MOST seems to use fibre optics to communicate. Does anyone have info on where these optics are and if could be affected by battery replacement. I hate the idea of going back to Lexus and paying even more to fix something that they may have done. Any help is appreciated.
  14. I have had a similar water ingress to the same area. it also manifests itself as condensation on the inside of windscreen. i have in the past baled it out with a Jami Oliver infuser thingy the wife has, a bit like a turkey baster, a tube with a rubber squeeze end. I have now drilled a small hole to allow the water to escape. Had my auxiliary battery changed by Lexus yesterday and there was no mention of any water in that area.
  15. If I remember correctly they do on mine. I tried a Queen one and I think you get a static picture from the album and hear the soundtrack. When it stops raining I'll go and try it again. Or are you talking about writeable ones that you have burnt from a PC ??
