Our Lexus Sleuth is on the case Deer stalker on head Magnifying glass in hand. Mike More like the fear of getting arrested for loitering with intent to view a car in the dark, tooled up with a flashlight Mike :)

I didn't know that, the cool box that is. It would have been useful for my water yesterday when it got up to 34 degrees in London. I thought I'd read all of the manual, I obviously missed that one. Well as the topic of this post says, you learn something new every day! I always keep a bottle of Vintage Moët & Chandon and some Foie Gras, unsalted butter and French Toast just in case I see and stop another LS400 owner. Mike Let me know when you pass through Newport, Salop

Hi J, Lol, at first I thought i did. But no i didn't. As the LPG on this just got fitted a 1000 miles ago. Well it was a c1201 error, tried looking around. Showed it to a mechanic, he's doing some checks, to me it looked like a small thing as if the ecu is messing it up, or some other electric component. But after his diagnostics he tends to insist that its the gearbox itself, and needs a reconditioning. He is a gearbox specialist, so i don't know he wants to fix the small bit and make money off me with the reconditioning. Just can't figure out whats right and true, lol. Mo

Hiya, Were you able to get your car sorted? And what was the exact problem? As I am having the same trouble, moves forward but won't reverse, just got fitted with LPG and i bought it with 101k on the Clock, had Lexus Service History upto 90k, LPG got fitted exactly at 100k, drove fine in the first few drives, Shock absorber was not as good, got it changed, paid 300 for a used pneumatic shocks absorber. And all of a sudden reversing from the garage on a slope, Engine Check Lights illuminated, drove around came back, tried reversing again but no reverse, moves forward but would not engage in reverse at all, tried everything. Please any help on what you did would be of a great help. Cheers! Mo
