  1. Hi James and welcome to the LOC. That was a good find with such low mileage. Similar story with me, Rover 213, 216 EFi, 820, 825 then to Lexus or in my case JDM Lexus badged as Toyotas. I owned a 1994 Celsior (LS400) for 16 years and presently own a 2004 Celsior (LS430).
  2. Just looking at front brake pads for my 2004 Celsior which are the same as the LS430 so first checked on LPD who have them at £78.35 plus £6.95 shipping ( I thought LOC members got free shipping?). Next Amayama but they are coming through at £81.68 plus £35.17 shipping then add 20% VAT to the total. Given the more frequent “No Longer Available” and the increase in prices particularly shipping costs I wonder if Amayama was the place to go for cheaper OEM Lexus parts.
  3. Hi Steve and welcome to the LOC. Let’s have some pictures please, we like pictures 😀
  4. There is a slight drop, leave it overnight and then recheck, if there is a crack in the core it could open up more when the coolant is hot.
  5. It does sound like one of the vent control actuators trying to change position but it’s got stuck mid position. Have you replaced your pollen filter recently?
  6. Shaun messaged me and I have replied, my money is on the radiator leaking engine coolant into the transmission.
  7. Hello Kirsty and welcome to the LOC. Are these the parts your Son needs circled in the picture? If yes I can give you the part numbers from Lexus which will cost around £50.00 or a cheaper option would be to find a breaker ( eBay) and get the parts used.
  8. She has been going on about it for years Len along with “bingo wings” and a “tummy tuck” It’s when I tell her you can’t improve on perfection like a Lexus that she hits me!
  9. My wife would be happy with just the facelift 😀
  10. If you mean just the bumper cover see link below but bear in mind there are 4 different part numbers for the sport models and sonar system. This is also supplied un-painted so you need to factor that in as well, same for the mountings if any are damaged. https://lexuspartsdirect.co.uk/product/lexus-is-phase-2-sel-front-bumper/
  11. Never mind the battery cover do they have the Lexus torch still in the tool kit, still in the wrapping and fully functional?
  12. You need a battery “Insulator” Malc, the battery will last twice as long and you will see a 30% increase in MPG 😀 Also nice to see the battery terminal covers are still fitted which often disappear. OK on a more serious note remember to ensure you order the correct terminal layout when ordering a replacement battery
  13. Found this on a local FB page 😀 “So my car needs to pass an MOT to make sure it’s safe to drive on roads that aren’t safe to drive on ?”
