  1. Hi everyone

    I have installed an aftermarket head unit after the dreaded Err3 code and being unable to find a second hand original.

    The problem is, now the sat nav does not work, I have connected the new unit by using a system where you unplug the amp and connect to a specially made connector which then connects to the head unit connector.

    The head unit works fine but I would like the Sat Nav to work, it is a bit old hat but can be useful. I have read somewhere that I need a module as the Lexus radio/cd works the Sat Nav, no radio/cd no Sat Nav.

    Can anybody help with the module or any other ideas. My original CD is Lexus part 13902 (86120-53040) which is apparently very hard to find!!

    Thanks

  2. dont worry .... u didnt buy a lemon ..... its a common problem on quite a few IS200s.  The symptom is ... u hear something flapping/loose ... somewhere in the roof ... near the dome light.  The sunroof looks sturdy and works fine.  If u push up against the roof with ur hand near the dome light, the sound disappears (or gets smaller).

    sounds about right?

    If ur car is under warrantee .. then just tell them to change the frame and re-silicone everything.  This would solve the problem.  If u r like me and out of warrantee.... then just do wat I did (cos the sunroof kit is freakin expensive to replace!!!).  I told my local shop to take the sunroof apart ... re-silicone ... and put it back together.  My rattle went away.

    Either way, u will need to drop the lining and do something to it ... theres no way around it really ....

    Thanks for the info willl have a go at trying to cure it at the weekend

  5. Can anyone give me ideas about an intermiitent rattle which seems to be coming from the roof of my IS200. I've checked around the Sun Roof and nothing seems loose, don't really want to take off the roof lining.

    Have not had the car long, not new, and it's the first one I have had. Everything else is great but this noise is getting on my nerves.
