Thats some great footage, thanks for sharing. Unfortunately my fault is back, in at lexus next week so will bring up the issue, after reviewing all the data logs I've made and Freeze Frame Data it was pointing to the "Stroke" sensor in the Rack, but today the rack started making strage noises and completely stopped working 😞 I am thinking this is going to be expensive 😞

You can get on it but you would need to instal an Octopus compatible charger like an Ohme.

I am not particularly loyal to any brand. If they annoy me at all then I try someone else (hope Lexus is listening 😅) I have changed from Ford to MG to Vauxhall to Saab to Audi and now to Lexus. Most have been good cars.

Ive sorted the annoying knocking on the rear which I thought was a shocker, After having a play at the rear I noticed some play in the anti roll bar, bought some poly bushes for £16 and its cured the issues, silence again .... only took me 6 months to sort lol

That’s how they look on the isf

I have actually had 4/5 honda's and they have been great cars although both my accords driveshaft failed and that was an expensive repair. I have noticed that a lot or maybe even most people tend to stick to the same brand forever once they are happy. Why change! If it ain't broke, don't fox it.

Jacaranda are a sight to behold. First saw them in Sydney. Then a few days ago in Estepona.

£1300

I am leaning towards Cadiz.... 2.5 hour drive vs 1 hour drive might tip the balance!

Anthony hi again ......... did you get the front exhaust leak issues sorted that they mentioned ? When I had mine done on my Mk3 the exhaust fabricators built anew coz there was zero availabilty of the OEM part anymore Best wishes Malc

….thought ! vehicle registered in 09 / 2000 - could be fitted in transition to replacement LS 430 - their first reg’s were on an X plate ! maybe, a Lexus LS 430 owner could help ? anthony

I have confirmed the RR Racing tune now fitted to my car removes the Japanese speed limiter which is nice, need to work out how to remove the cruise limiter.

….no, Chris - I have that Lexus option already installed ! bright banded yellow and black handle over driver’s headrest, in emergency - sharp pull forward, the canopy disappear’s in the slipstream and seat and driver are rocketed, literally, vertically upward’s 200 metre’s at 100 mph complete with drink’s holder - parachute deploy’s immediately on descent ! front passenger has one too - say’s Martin Baker on the headrest’s. 😳

Hello everyone, I have a Lexus RX450h, coming up with Climate control system erra contract your dealer. none of the buttons for heating, fan, ac, rear screen , door mirror heater not working. All radio/ sat nav work perfectly everything in car works no issue. I have tried a diagnostic to see any codes stored, it is showing code: I already tried another HVACCM and tried another Radio to see if the heater button have any issue but nothing made any difference. I wondered if anyone had this issue, please anyone can help.

My wife & I spent 5 days in Cadiz in late May several years ago. The jacamuda trees were in flower & a terrific sight. We loved our stay. I recommend you visit Le Caleta beach used in 007's Die another day film. Great for coastal walks.

Ejector seat. it should have DO NOT PRESS in big red letters.

….hi - guy’s ! need some help please ! could a Lexus LS 400 year 2000 expert tell me what this press button switch actually activate’s ? have owned car for nearly 3 year’s - never found out what it doe’s ! no mention in Owner’s Handbook. driver’s door sound’s a bong every time it is opened - no effect using this button ! button positioned just to the right of the bonnet release lever under offside dash. all suggestion’s welcome - thank you. anthony

Day trip tomorrow. Can't decide between Gibraltar and Cadiz. Anyone been to either?

Thanks for the extra info. I will take both the switch and/or the mirrors apart and see where the problem lies. I don’t like it when things don’t work, even if not required too often. Also, I fear I may have to let SWMBO drive the car, and she is a good deal shorter than me so will need the mirror U/D adjustment. Still, this could be a good excuse to stop her driving it🤔

Profile not syncing has been the bane of my life and continues to be so. If anyone knows how to fix this permanently please let me know. Regarding problems with the uppercase key have you checked the temporary screen protector has been removed?

@Ahmed. I like what you've done. Can I ask how these mods/upgrades affect your insurance cover/premium?

If it's the "Continue" screen when you switch on just ignore it as it disappears after a few seconds and the Sat Nav screen appears and is normal. If it's some other screen on about profiles or similar then others have had it and it had to be reset at the dealer.

I sat today in one 110GT at South Wales Car Show in Chepstow. Alpine Cardiff branch had one in green. I liked the interior and seating position. 1100kg sounds very interesting 😁 Exterior is like little Aston Martin. I’m going to book a test drive. Seems to be a great car.

Price?

Interesting John & Chris. I know that Octopus have a somewhat cheaper tariff than 'Octopus GO' which I am on and gives me 9p per unit from 0030 to 0430. However, my understanding is that the 7.5p tariff is only available for those cars whose manufacturers have signed up to Octopus' clever smart arrangement, which Lexus have not. Chris, I also export excess solar, but am paid 70.71p per Kwh. We were lucky enough to get on original 'feed-in' tariff.
