My opinion too, Ronnie. When I was buying a new set, I asked Lexus MK if they could supply them as I was due an annual service there anyway. To my surprise, they matched my regular tyre supplier. I didn’t go with it as I was also having Alloygator rim protectors fitted. It may not be the first place anyone thinks of, but you’re quite right that it’s always worth asking them to quote.

Hi As a new owner I noticed the grille on my 2018 is has large gaps. I have seen some BMW owners on forums put plastic garden mesh behind their grille to protect against stones hitting the ac condensor radiators does any one do this on their cars here?

Djax posted a topic in Engine & Transmission
New egr fitted. MIL lights after 15 min driving.txt Hi I've fitted a new EGR valve to IS220d 2006 as i was regularly getting the MIL lamp, and when i checked via OB2 it was EGR fault But after 15 mins driving with the new EGR, the MIL lamp comes back on. EGR fault again, according to OB2 I had cleaned the MAF sensor too Any ideas why the EGR fault keeps coming up The car is on about 210,000 miles -

Sorry I’ve found over the years there is no loyalty with any insurance company there out there for one thing much money as possible -
Hi all, I have 4 Lexus SC430 alloys, not a scratch on them, I would like £200 per wheel, buyer could collect or arrange collection from Pembroke Dock, Pembrokeshire. The alloys were removed not long after purchase and stored in a garage, as I said, no scratches, dents, dings or curb rash. Thanks for looking, hopefully someone will enjoy a trip to Pembrokeshire soon. Jim

Stevo11 started following RX 450h - what is a 'normal' mpg return?
-
I bought mine in Jan, 4800miles since, Avg 31.44mpg ... I found it took about 4 weeks for me to adjust to how to drive these for best mpg, ECO mode on/off doesn't seem to matter. On the majority of my longer distance journeys I pull either a boat or a tall covered trailer so factor that in. 60mph+ really hits mpg, scooting around town it'll easily go to 34mpg average. My best over a tank was 35mpg.

That one is parked at newton auctioneers in hyde according to a supplied photo. Get your sherlock holmes hat on and do the necessary due diligence. -
Because i purchased the tyres 'as new' from a very nice gent on here. My local Lexus dealership isn't exactly on the doorstep, so use a tyre place 20 yards from where i work

There are now two sites shown for Lexus Bournemouth - the aftersales centre shared with Toyota (where I went in February and was underwhelmed) plus the old Lexus Poole site in Poole for sales, although it also seems to have a workshop. Suggest you check which one you contacted, and try the other one. I am a distance from either, so would appreciate feedback / comments from anybody with recent experience of Lexus Bournemouth - either site.

MAF and Throttle body cleaning
Notamech replied to Notamech's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
Yeah i did a lot of research on this and sounds like its normal. The ECU deliberately decides to run the engine lean to generate more heat faster. This made no sense to me as i always thought more fuel=more energy and hence more heat. But apparently that is not the case. A lean mixture generates more heat because there is a more complete burning of fuel taking place vs a rich mixture where relatively speaking more fuel is wasted also in a rich mixture the unburnt fuel conducts some of the heat away. So i guess it makes sense that under certain situations where power demand is low e.g in traffic and when the engine wants to warm up fast that the ecu decides to run it lean. Strangely i was in the same situation today but it didn't do it and everything was smooth as always. Sometime in the next few weeks I'll still clean the throttle body, MAF sensor and replace the PCV valve just for good measure. Its also strange that cars these days dont come with replaceable fuel filters. Ive seen videos of people opening up the pump assembly to get at these "lifetime" filters and what comes out is nasty. -
I'll try that tonight thanks Don

It wasn't Lexus that fitted the tyres

Well after 20 mile back from tacky coast to mountain loveliness with the top down, I can confirm that Panama hats stay put without recourse to string or velcro. Road was in middle of pic, dodging the mountains.

You can initialise the TPMS in the setting menu via the steering wheel control on the left.
