Newbie, Go Easy On Me!

Hi All

Im a bit of a cheat to be honest, I don't actually own an RX300, it's my fathers. I actually have a Corolla Verso, but hey they share the same steering wheel I suppose!

He picked up his December 2005/55 reg RX300 just over a week ago and he loves it. Bit of a shock with the old MPG (late teens/early twentys if hes lucky) and coming from a Jaguar X type diesel this is a real eye opener.

But the reason for this thread is a couple of things. It has some sensors underneath the front bumper, what are these for? Not sure if it has adaptive cruise control or not but this might explain them.

Also the car has 2 toggle switches, probably added later. One is on the panel where the ext mirror controls are, when you switch it on it beeps for about a second stops momentarily then continuously beeps, same beep as the reverse parking sensors. The other switch is underneath the indicator stalk on the steering wheel cowling. When switched on this will beep for a second or two then stop.

Has anyone got any idea what these are for, like I say they have probably been added later but they seem proffessionaly fitted.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Welcome to LOC :D

Sounds like front parking sensors activated by one of the switches to me. Can you contact the previous owner and ask, name and address should be on the V5.
