Easiest way is to copy your CD's to a USB memory stick(s) then use that/them. If you somehow connected a CD player you would still be playing it through the car's system so there would be little if any sound difference and the USB route is much tidier and easier. I've done it that way, used a 32gb stick to burn loads of CD's, couldn't say how many you could actually fit onto the one 32gb which is the system limit according to the nav manual.

So much for Being out of the EU, still taking rules from them, 😡i

Look, once and for all, it's not a Lexus (or other manufacturer) problem, it's a matter of simple physics, and no matter how much you may want to, not even you can defeat the laws of physics. Small batteries don't hold charge for long. Larger batteries hold charge for longer. Lexus made a decision a long time ago to use small batteries and it really is as simple as that. They could change their rationale and make future cars with bigger batteries but (a) I very much doubt they will, and (b) that wouldn't help the owners of thousands of cars driving around now.

I would have no idea what a good respray costs these days ☹️

Could it possibly be the wing mirrors? Mine seemed to do it very occasionally, but not for sometime now. Maybe fold them in, if it's safe, and see if anything changes. Long shot but might be worth ruling them out.

Well done Don. The usual problem is getting something that physically fits in the battery box and has the terminals the right way round. I take it that the one on the right is the original at 35Ah and you've upgraded to 45Ah? If so, that gives you an extra 5.92 days (from 20.83 days @35Ah to 26.75 days @45Ah) before it goes flat if not used or charged - caveats further up this thread still apply though. How I wish we could get something with an absolute minimum of 75Ah or better still, 100Ah. Sadly, nothing like that will ever fit in the battery box of my RX so I've got my trusty jump start battery pack in the car at all times.

I don't have a problem with rust because I rather not look.

For me it is not my first hybrid, or EV, so it really it isn't a generic hybrid problem. If other manufacturers can sort it; if after market upgrades can sort it; then it is a Lexus problem and they will only listen if people make a noise.

I know some of you will argue that you shouldn’t have to do it but I fitted an upgraded battery on my mate’s LBX today. You don’t have to do it, it’s up to you but you can see the capacity is well up. It’s under the back seat, took me about 20 minutes and it cost just over £71 with a 5 year warranty.

It was me. Had a rear caliper replaced under the Lexus 10 Year Plus Extended Warranty (car was actually just under 10 years old but had covered 149k miles when it was replaced).

He’s right.

Yes, agree we can stop discussing because that brings no new information to the table. My two cents in respect to your question of buying decision. It's still a nice driving car but I would be hesitant for buying the LBX if I knew upfront. Most propably would have a closer look to hybrid cars which already have a solution for this "feature". But again it would be a minus on my wife's and my checklist which we used before buying.

Not sure where it’s coming from, the engine hasn’t started so quiet apart from the noise

But the Ls460 does appear to be supremely expensively problematical for many owners August 2023 I had the itch to buy another big car and explored the Ls600 offerings and nearly bought an import as they are supremely good cars on balance …….. BUT it seemed to me that whatever I did it would never be free of some Japanese hieroglyphics, buttons whatever remaining ……. so I just abandoned that thought and luckily discovered my 91 J reg Ls400 from a Member here …….. replicates my first one from some 26 years ago, colour and all 😄 So I now have it and it’s wonderful but with bodywork niggles and blemishes but then she is 33 years and 101k miles young ……. and of course drives impeccably On balance I’m sure you’ll enjoy a Ls 👍 Malc

Is the noise coming from the engine?

Hi, has anyone with a plugin noticed a tapping/ticking noise at startup ? It’s only for a few seconds then stops. I would say it’s like the petrol pump priming the line but I haven’t heard this on my old NX and supprised its audiable.

Hi Malcolm, yes I have been binging on his videos. He is a real fountain of knowledge. I’ve heard that the 400/430 is bulletproof but they are quite scarce over here. In comparison a lot of the 460/600 were sold in 2007/2008. I’ve read they are the more problematic alright but I suppose how problematic they are is the question. The air suspension scares me a bit especially at that age. I’d imagine wear and tear on bushes shouldn’t be too much of an issue at that mileage even though it is old and rubber does perish. My dad took a Landcruiser 100 series to 526,000 miles and it’s still going with its new owner. I always picture the 100 series and the LS as the pinnacle of Japanese engineering.

I drove back 78 kms, searched, notified the police and road officials but nothing

Hi can anyone help me? I have a 2023 UX sport, how do you permanently get lane assist turned off? My Lexus dealer said it’s on permanent due to an EU safety rule.

Just checked mine and I thought I had never seen the Lexus items whilst in CarPlay, but I don’t have a collapse button? Happy with my set up, so I’m not going fiddling 🫣

This happens when you try to start the car and there is no key
