Thanks for the replies. I'll have a look at the suggestions and see how that goes. Peter

2007 RX 350 Headlight level warning lights comes after the car has been driven for a few minutes and occaisonally goes off when the car is being driven. I've stripped and reassembled the Headlight Level Sensor at the offside rear (located near to torsion bar). This hasn't cured the prblem and it seems like the joints on the sesnor arm are very worn. I'm looking at buying a replacement pattern sensor (https://gbr.grandado.com/products/8940830130-for-su10945-headlight-level-sensor-for-toyota-lexus?gclid=EAIaIQobChMInsi-rajv8AIVze3mCh1mlgovEAQYBSABEgIuMfD_BwE&variant=UHJvZHVjdFZhcmlhbnQ6MTEwMDkxMDMw), my local LExus agent quoted over £400 (!) for the parts and repair. Before I start on the job, does anyone have experience of doing this repair? Is there anything else that I need to look at? Are there any adjusters at the headlight or bulb that could be suspect as well? I never tow or load the car to the point where the adjustment is actually needed but the MoT will pick up the warning light. As a last resort is there any way to jerry-rig the sensor so that the warning light stays off? Cheers, Peter

I've got a problem with the idle on my 96 LS400, 145k miles. The car is up to date on its servicing and there are no warning lights on. The car starts fine, hot or cold, and drives normally without complaint under any driving conditions, except when the problem occurs. After a run of about an hour or more at motorway speeds, when the car is coming off the m-way and slowing down at the end of the slip road, engine revs will occaisonally drop so low that the engine cuts out. It will re-start from neutral without any problem and will not repeat this until it's on another long run. So, it won't cut out again when I stop at the next junction or set of lights. It only seems to be a problem slowing down after the m-way run. On a regualr trip I do, I've tried running with the cruise control off (normally it's on on m-ways) but this makes no difference, the problem remains. I don't know if this is simply a problem with the idle speed adjustment - it ticks over at at about 400 RPM which I think is a little low - or somethink linked to idel air control or temp sensors. Any pointers would be welcome.

Hi. New on here, and looking for some advice on sourcing a n/s wing mirror glass for my 1996 LS400. I've had a search of the archive, which unfortunately, didn't throw up any obvious answers. I've found one seller on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/LEXUS-LS400-1995-2000-CONVEX-HEATED-WING-MIRROR-GLASS-/330456098741?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item4cf0b7e7b5) but when I read the advert, I didn't gain any confidence that these mirrors would be heated, let alone have the dimming for night driving. If I've got to go back to a main agent for the part, so be it, but I guess I'm looking at a fair amount of cash for an original. Is there a pattern part available or a Toyota part which would suit? Any pointers very welcome. Peter.
