Hello Team Lexus

[UltraViolet]

Just thought I'd say Hi! I have just ordered my IS200 which will arrive in January - can't wait! Will be my first ever brand new car, and first ever sensible one! lol

IS200 SE in Strathcaron Blue........

Question - what can I do to increase performance without invalidating the warranty?

[Richie]

Welcome and nice choice for the IS200!!!!!!

[Steve]

greetings to Ultraviolet!

Hi and welcome, with regards to increase in performance if you tamper with the engine you will only invalidate that here in the UK, but the mod will be warranted. Keep a good relationship with your dealer and they will be good to you. Mine have been excellent!

LOL to UV

Crazy Uni days are great! Congrats on your new purchase! You will have endless fun... as well as reliability!

[UltraViolet]

I live in North Yorkshire. And reliability... of course!!! It is Japanese!!!

I have given up getting free fuel to get my mitts on this car.

I did have a company car and fuel card for all my petrol - but come change I was going to be given a BMW or VW...... I couldn't do that - had to take the cash and wave goodbye to the fuel card - Lexus... Mmmmmmm

superchargedmorph - you saying that if I tell my dealer about any mods in advance, smile sweetly and say 'that won't be any problem with the warrenty will it?'.... he will be okay?

If so - roll on the first meet so I can check out what mods are worthwhile - pros and cons...

[Monster-Mat]

engine mods will not be warrentd,the warrenty would come from the tuner,however suspension,body,etc etc,you should have no problem,or just do as i did

ah f***k it,i will do it any way,there reliable:smug:

Hi, your mods will be warrantied by whoever fitted them, but my suspension changes and exhaust they would not do recommended I went to a specialist, but have always kept on good terms and they are happy to help out, also they gave me new calipers to powder coat red then fitted them. When my compressor showed a fault they put the diagnostic on it and pinpointed possible problems foe TDI. Manners maketh the man I believe that they are willing to help if you give them plenty of courtesy, also whenever they me a favour I usaully give them a crate of beer, or some vino. Basically like old boy rulesto show gratitude.
