It's too complicated to explain on here and if you are not in the UK I'm not sure if it's the same way in another country. But you could try following these details from Lexus. https://www.lexus.co.uk/content/dam/lexus/nmsc/united-kingdom/owners/about-your-lexus/lexus-link/pdfs/Activation-Guide-MM21-Lexus-Link-Pro.pdf

Pop-Up Hood - Warning
tvshacker replied to EvilAudi's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
I had a similar experience as @JonnyWil during the day, no birds or anything. Only damage found was some scratches under the front bumper (which could've easily happened while parking). I'm trying to argue my way with the local Lexus dealership since as said in this thread the system seems to be badly designed and shouldn't have triggered under those circumstances. Can anyone help me find technical details regarding this "feature"? Like at if there's min/max speeds at which it's supposed to trigger? I'm looking for something "official-like". -
Thanks, for jeees sake I have to drive another 50 miles to dealer? Maybe I can ask them to post it to me so I can do it at a dealer near me and not where I bought the car.

I asked a mechanic I know up who works exclusively on hybrid cars and he said hes done afew of these and told me to get the diff pinion seal from Lexus as the copy parts tend to leak again so ill give Lexus a call tomorrow and see what the seal cost. He told me it should cost under £50 so we will see. I will keep this thread updated for anyone else that runs into the same problem

It happened to me also recently, but I didn't hit anything. I was going through a bit of a rough patch of road, but I didn't feel the impact of going over a significant hole or bump and the hood popped. The dealership found some scratches under the front bumper and assumes that's what caused it. I'm exchanging emails trying to get more details about the incident: exact speed I was driving and how the system is supposed to work (if there's a speed from when the system activates) etc. Some years ago I hit another car from behind and the pop up hood warning came on, but it didn't actually pop the hood, and that time the front bumper was cracked, so I'm a bit "flabbergasted" at my situation.

2015 RCF for sale
mr2lad replied to Spunkmeyer's topic in Lexus F Club - Lexus IS-F / GS-F / RC-F Club
He’s the biggest conman going…. Be very very wary of him, hes banned from most lexus forums/groups for his dodgy dealings ripping ppl off either buying or selling, selling unsafe cars with dodgy work hes done himself on the cheap, thes a queue of ppl looking to have a wee word in his ear down a alleyway, he had his own forum but was caught out hugely with his dodgy stuff and some nasty personal stuff and he ended up banning and blocking anyone that spoke out against him…. Hes a guy to avoid either buying of or selling too -
Quite easy to open the exhaust valves. You can do a bodge ( or buy some electronics - https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1067743897/lexus-lc-500-exhaust-valve-controller?gpla=1&gao=1&&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=shopping_uk_en_gb_a-electronics_and_accessories-car_parts_and_accessories-car_accessories&utm_custom1=_k_CjwKCAjwzN-vBhAkEiwAYiO7oH8Zb3-VrDl87O3mMlRRR2nnB8tbiC8kY_2FQSu8COd8RYL-6LJEvRoCcSwQAvD_BwE_k_&utm_content=go_12603394034_126677795184_508814344970_aud-2079782229334:pla-354955384985_c__1067743897engb_102858184&utm_custom2=12603394034&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwzN-vBhAkEiwAYiO7oH8Zb3-VrDl87O3mMlRRR2nnB8tbiC8kY_2FQSu8COd8RYL-6LJEvRoCcSwQAvD_BwE) Fitting - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIeXiScHqpk

We had a very positive experience with Motorway. It was a completely different sort of car to your LC, but the interactions were efficient and professional. A dealer from Lancashire turned up and after a 1.5 mile test drive to check the clutch, paid the money electronically and loaded it onto his truck. It all felt very safe, though we did check the dealer reviews on multiple websites to see how they were rated. When (if) I come to shift my RCF, I will certainly get a quote from them.

GS F owners UK
MaximusPrime replied to Fair and square's topic in Lexus F Club - Lexus IS-F / GS-F / RC-F Club
There's a blue 65 plate (GV65 HXM) GS F up for sale at Lexus Swindon, no pictures yet as it looks like the advert only went up today. 30,741 miles on the clock and yours for £41,995, they sure seem to hold their value! -
LBX Original Edition
robsmith115 replied to robsmith115's topic in Lexus LBX Owners Club - The All-New Lexus LBX
I insured mine with Lexus insurance. -
Thanks. That's what I was told as well. But then I'm seeing people on here booking theirs in already. So I'm guessing a two pronged solution, plate and something as yet undisclosed.

Phone connection question ?

Hi Bezzer, not sure, i will delete both phones and reload the wifes first to see if that makes any difference 👍 -
2nd Key 🔑 + 🔒 🛞 Nuts ready
HGUS replied to HGUS's topic in RX 300 / RX 350 / RX 400h / RX 200t / RX 450h Club
All included in the price of the car. £0.00 extra! However, I would expect them to at the very least include a coffee ☕️ 🙃, biscoff and any other freebies that they feel a Lexus owner deserves for having to wait so long. 🤔 -
Potential LC500 Owner after a little advice
shapiro replied to Dingle Dell's topic in Lexus LC500 Coupe Club
Welcome to the fold. You can now “relax” for almost 10 years or whatever the balance of the warranty is. Not many cars you can say that about! -
Filters....
normski2 replied to HighlandJohn's topic in Lexus IS 250 / Lexus IS 250C Club / Lexus IS 220D & IS 200D Club
Exactly as John has shown you. The critical thing is to put it into RECIRCULATION mode. When you remove the panel at the back of the glove compartment you should find the lid to the filter is in the up position allowing full view of the filter to be replaced. If it is not up DO NOT TRY AND FORCE THE LID UP MANUALLY you will break the selector arm!!! Just put the ignition on and try again, when you get it right you will see the lid lift up to reveal the filter. -
New owner questions!

Brilliant thanks! It's the homebase version of kallax that my wife wants. -
New LEXUS LC500 CONVERTIBLE ULTIMATE EDITION 002/165
NemesisUK replied to Philip Stone's topic in Lexus LC500 Coupe Club
To some, yes. The inclusion of PPF can increase the costs of any repairs. -
Autodoc is good for generic parts, like brake pads, discs, air filters, oils etc. But they don't have any Lexus specific parts at all.

Lexus LBX at Lexus Glasgow
Expatma replied to TomLC500h's topic in Lexus LBX Owners Club - The All-New Lexus LBX

I will do, I had such high hopes and plans for this boat it would be a shame to bin it off. 🤞 Everything remains the same and I'll do a premature trans fluid service this time next year to keep it stable. Still on the cards Wheels Exhaust needs sorting. It's a bit brash for my liking The rest of the sound system And of course timing belt!
