Hybrid Battery Fan Cleaning

[Rabbers]

This morning I took my RC300h for its 45000km service.  It was driving nicely, or so I thought, and I had no issues to report.  I was therefore surprised to be asked if I wanted the hybrid Battery fan cleaned, which I understood is now something Lexus recommends at 45000km intervals to coincide with the scheduled  maintenance.  Figuring that prevention is better than a possible unexpected need to cure the consequences of an overheated Battery, I said yes, and regarded the price of €65 as yet another expense among the many that derive from my congenital inability to undertake what to many people might seem an easy do-it-yourself job.  Anyway, the job was done, I trust properly, and although I might have imagined it, the car seemed quieter on the drive home and, subject to closer monitoring over the next few days, it also seemed to stay in EV mode longer.
