Thanks It is if your airflows are not on, or your air con is not switched on . Been through that Handbook yet old buddy ? That`s where all of the answer are John. I leave my aircon switched on to AUTO all of the time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have a bit on today as I`m on my own and as you know we men are not good at multitasking ! That`s why my responses are brief and seem curt. You are no bother whatsoever 😊 It really did take me a full 12 months before I realised I had (almost) mastered my car ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thought i was going to be back to using Facebook for info I absolutely agree about having climate control on permanently, it not only clears misty windows quicker but it apparently causes less fatigue on longer journeys. I'm with you on the manual thing though, they drive me nuts, even more so when they're in Japanese! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

royoftherovers 2,492 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 28 minutes ago, Chasdad said: Just been out in it. Never had a car mist up so quick And need aircon on so much I leave it on all the time and the fan speed on low. I increase the fan speed if I need to clear windows quickly. SOME THINGS TO CONSIDER; *ask Lexus to replace the filter behind the glovebox (its possible that it might never have been changed) *consider buying one or two of these dehumidifiers and leaving them in the car all the time. https://www.amazon.co.uk/KEPLIN-Dehumidifier-Reusable-Automotive-Condensation/dp/B08NWBWSZF/ref=sr_1_6?crid=PSI7FEHD551B&dchild=1&keywords=car+dehumidifier&qid=1612641088&sprefix=car%2Caps%2C198&sr=8-6 * make sure that all of the air vents in the car are open and directed onto the windows. * the air temperature shown on the vents is as you want. Mine are set to degrees both sides. Oh happy days John.😉 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The-Acre 2,186 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 It's a difficult time of year for cars misting up, my Volvo one day last week literally had water running down the inside of the windscreen, my Celsior has had the odd bad day as well, other days absolutely fine, roll on summer!

Chasdad 142 Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 Sounds like im panicking over nothing. Still cant get over how good the car is . Even got me back into my old habit of getting up early to clean my car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
royoftherovers 2,492 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 John, If Lockhart of the Yard had had a fleet of those......nobody would have escaped the long arm of the law. 0-60 in 5.9 and top speed of 155mph (restricted). Be ever so careful now! She really does look superb. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chasdad 142 Posted February 6 Author Share Posted February 6 No the 350z is a fairlady. Skyline is 350gt but not really looked at as a proper skyline to most 32,33,34 0wners Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve2006 2,107 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 An article I ‘be just read in my Sunday paper regarding the Nissan GT-r (apparently Nissan have dropped Skyline). A Nismo model at £180.000 with 600 odd BHP! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The-Acre 2,186 Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 The Nissan GTR is the fastest thing I've ever driven, 0-60 in 3.5 seconds, I'd rather have one than any so called supercar, and when in "normal" driving mode it was quiet and comfortable. It's not surprising Jeremy Clarkson yanked his neck out driving one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chasdad 142 Posted February 7 Author Share Posted February 7 The gtr are dropping in price. And have a few reliability issues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've no intention of buying one, I'd end up too aquatinted with a lamppost. Which reminds me, I've had two previous LS430's but the Celsior seems to be much quicker off the mark, whether it's tuned differently I don't know but it really does shift!
