Still under warranty then? A lot come with at least a 3 year guarantee.

Ordered one for the other half in October 23 and it arrived in March, we was told they was coming through quick but because of the problems with shipping some was taking little longer as they was being diverted on a safer route, Really impressed with the big roomy feel for a small car

Interesting, pretty sure it works correctly on the GS as the outline on the mirrors is very noticeable but not sure about the other 2.

Hi Jerry, when I read you had been on the .com LOC I couldn’t resist 😀 Welcome to the LOC UK forums.

These tyres are at 2.3 bar as recommended. Also this model does not have the adaptive suspension system which may have improved the ride. It is on the F sport model. Obviously I did not do enough research. From a lot of checking on the web the Bridgestone run flat tyres are considered noisy and hard. I believe Lexus now are supplying Dunlops which are reported to be quieter and offer a more comfortable ride. The UX is ok on the motorway but on A and B roads where most of our driving is done I am not happy with it. The UX was the perfect size as there is just 2 of us and size issues re back seats and boot was not an issue for us. I will be switching to a new Corolla.

Seems a very short natural life for the battery, just 3 years 🤔 Malc

Actual today 33 with remaining range with A/C quoted as 11.4, so not too far off?

I’ve always admired the look of the Prelude My b-in-law from whom I bought the Legend had a Prelude prior ….. very smart car 👍 Malc

I never look at the quoted mpg.

Hi thank for replay. I’ll order a new battery this week and pray the issue disappears and goes away as this is the first time happening since I’ve owned the car and putting in a new (the Lexus Panasonic) in January 2021. FYI I have the mark Lev sound system so majority of the time daily I do tend to play my music almost at full power as well for three years straight I can imagine that would have a negative effect on the battery over time?

I too have hit this profile login problem a few times over the last year. Still happens occasionally, annoyingly. I think it's something to do with the vehicle failing to connect over the mobile network at the point where it decides it wants to sync data, which therefore depends on coverage. Either that or there's something up with the Lexus data service authentication at the time. What's really frustrating is why it doesn't appear to retry, since my credentials haven't changed. My password contains uppercase letters too, and I struggled to get the shift button on the screen keyboard to work, until I found if you press and release the button very quickly, the letters on the keyboard then switch to uppercase. Hope this helps.

Same here I have Premium Edition on order but struggling to find exact spec details. Have you been given a UK arrival date. My info is that it’s expected to arrive towards end of May which suggests a delivery date about 2nd week of June.

Wow just 674 left …….. Wonder how many began life here in the Uk ! there would have been a few write-offs I’m thinking …….. BUT initial sales possibly well under the 1000 mark 🤔 The recent figure for Ls400 left of @1100 mentioned here recently is huge then We are so fortunate, or indeed very wise to have and enjoy our very special cars Malc

After ruling out the harness I’ve gotten hold of another hybrid ECU. I’m aware these are coded to the car so wasn’t expecting a miracle with a swap over, but just enough to see if the code (P3108) still remained or not. The only code that came up was for the immobiliser (as the ecu isn’t coded to the car - B2799) thus giving me a good degree of confidence that my ECU is somewhat unhappy. I also noticed when I connect the replacement ECU , TechStream picks up the VIN, however on my original it doesn’t. I’ve tried to rewrite my VIN to the original ECU but I get an error saying function has failed, so another marker to confirm ECU has had a bit of a wobble.

If you look in the owners manual on how to manually close the metal roof - from memory - you need to get to "stage 4" of this operation (with the roof open) to gain access to the part that you want to replace.

Michelle.. Could be quite a few Things that could cause this Yellow triangle which is only an advisory Warning.. Does this warning show up every time you start your vehicle Or is it intermitant...Have you checked your Fuel flap is Properly Closed ? Could be a Hot Spot in the Hybrid Battery ..Make sure the Vents at the side of the back seat are not Covered...Thus not Cooling the Battery Components .. if it Persists have the Dealership Run a Diagnostic Test through the OBD connector in your car to see what flags up...Hope that helps...

I know this hike in insurance business is a right p.i.t.a. and like many I've seen a massive % increase year on year. While I too think well that's it I'm off to buy something else, logically unless you're ready to change anyway it's going to cost much more than the difference in insurance premiums to do so. Guess I'll be hanging around for sometime yet then.

If it's a profile screen you need to create a profile on lexus link and then hold the key up to the power button when going through the sync process

It takes ages to register the sensors Scott, I think they’ve exited too quick. I seem to think it says “registration complete” then a few miles.

In the process of painting my calipers Orange 😄
