  1. Yes, I have had mine done by Torquetronix. Would highly recommend. Car has passed MOT in Northern Ireland, which is alot stricter than the UK. Getting around 45-48 mpg.
  2. Personally I would start with a pressure test to see if it drops the pressure. I'd leave the pressure test on for sometime to see if it eventually drops.
  3. Issue cured, absolute nightmare of a job replacing the fuse box. Took about 1.5 hours. As for prices Amayama Trading £60 delivered. Lexus Belfast - significantly north of that & a local breakers £50 & delivered the next day.
  4. Fault found Fuse box beside the battery has shorted out some how. I need to look into this and see what exactly has caused this to fault.
  5. Still at a dead end with this. Battery not charging, but alternator has been checked and is provided a charge, although the chap that is refurbishing it thinks the diodes may be on the way out. So, I have gone ahead and got it refurbed. Will report back later on. If not, any other suggestions? I will also give the earths a clean up too
  6. Changed the battery last night, issue seemed to be cured. Covered 30 miles with no issues. Stopped the car & restarted - fault still present. Car is started 100% not slow to start but none of the electrics are working apart from dipped beam & rev counter.
  7. Didn't get a chance to get it on the battery tester, but I believe it's goosed. I wasn't able to unlock the car using the fob, then lost all power apart from rev counter, hazzards and main beam.
  8. Thanks for the welcome Barney.
  9. Come to think of it, she has been slightly slower to start in the mornings. Thanks for info Steve, will give the battery a check tomorrow in work.
  10. I'm on my phone at the moment, so can't have a proper check, another site I use - japan-parts.eu
  11. Evening, I've had my IS220D since February with no issues until this afternoon. I went out to the car (had been stationary for approx 8 hours) to start - started fine, but I got "Check VSC" on the dash as well as the ABS & TRC lights. The fault was present for around 30 seconds, while the fault was occuring the PAS was Inop. I drove for appox 40 minutes with no issues. I switched the car off & on again and the fault was still present, although only for around 10 seconds. I had a quick scan and couldn't see any similar faults posted. Anyone have an idea of what this may be? Thanks in advance Chris.
