Err3 again...merged threads

[dark_is200]

Went to put a CD in the player today, turned on and its showing ERR3. Last time it did this the dealer sorted it under warranty, car is out of warranty now so any clues on fixing it. It doesn't have any CD's in it at the moment.

Already tried resetting etc. but the last post about known problem and out of warranty replacement sounds promising, i'll call the dealer tomorrow and see what happens

[dark_is200]

Just spoke to the dealer, was told that since the car is more than 3 years old I will have to pay for repair etc. (approx 300).

Spoke to Lexus customer care (01737 363633) and was told that it is a known problem and covered by extended warranty and will therefore be fixed for free, customer care is going to call the dealer and give then a wrist slapping.

Moral of the story - dealer's try to rip you off, speak to Lexus customer care if you have any doubts!

Chris Shipley mentioned recently that as there've been so many problems with the CD changer it's warranty has been extended to 4 years.

dark_is200 which dealer is this?

[PQuist]

I totally agree with DarK_IS200. Any problem with Dealer, speak to Lexus GB. I had a corrosion on my wheels and the dealers will only change them if I am prepared to pay. Spoke to Lexus GB and got all four wheels changedat the price of a phone call

[PQuist]

As this is a known problem, the dealer should fix it. If not speak to Lexus GB

anyone had error1? Mine starts to spin up to read the disk index and just gives error1. I am using original CDS by the way.

as for error 3, Tis was a tolerancing problem I heard, if you look at various CD's they are different thicknesses, Obviously Fujitsu Ten got the tolerances wrong for the transport, hence jammed CDS and error3

just my 2p
