I paid Lexus £315 last week for the Master Key. Should be getting a call this week From them to take the car and get it programmed once the key arrives. luckily after paying for the key I asked the guy to make sure it’s the smart key and he said ofcourse it is and showed me a picture of it. I politely said no that’s the wrong key as I need this type of key. I don’t have an ignition key hole that fits with the key you ordered. A bit embarrassed he searched and found the right key. just goes to show they dnt know their cars aswell as they think they do. This week I will get the alloys refurbished and get a quote to get all the scratches removed. after that I will need to get the PO660 code done which will be expensive me thinks. Ifty

I have converted my LS430 to LPG. The kit is BRC and fitted by Bham Autogas. Aircon doesn’t work and a spare aircon pump was given with the car. It’s going in for 170k service and they will look at the aircon pump too. I only have the valet key and want to get the master key. Anyone know where can I get one of these from or is it a dealer job. How much are these keys. thanks Ifty

LOL. Just my luck. my brother bought this car in Feb this year and has now sold it to me. it is as you describe body wise but there are no codes or EML so that seems to be sorted. My brother did the rear disks and pads. i have driven it today and it drives spot on at the moment. My brother did get it checked underneath from His mechanic and all seems to be fine. i only bought it coz I missed my old LS430 which I sold in 2014. looks like I will have to dig deep. I am getting the bodywork and alloys done and then getting it LPG converted on 6th July. oh well I’ll try to bring it back to it’s former glory. watch this space.

Buyer Beware
Ifty replied to Roscoe p's topic in LS 400 / Lexus LS 430 / Lexus LS 460 / Lexus 600h / Lexus 500h Club
Lol You mean 100,000 miles. It's on for £5500 with air suspension etc. I owned a 52 gs430 sport with 64k miles. It turned out it had 287000 miles and had been clocked. It still drove like it had 64000 miles -
Lol. Trust me I am not a dodgy seller/trader from Dudley. Even though I live there. Nor is mine clocked back. All in good bantor. Got to be careful who bids. I don't know who is genuine bidder or time waster. If it sells then so be it. Otherwise I get it ready to park it in garage and use it next yr. Looking forward to the drive to London tomorrow. Actually come to think of it I have driven it over 1000 miles since getting it MOTd in October. Must be the fear that if it sells then I can't drive it. Wierd Ifty

Lpg System

I paid £1600 for mine with flash lube and I had a OMVL system. Works a treat and I have just returned from London after two days of driving in the city and two hours of stand still traffic. In total I did 315 miles out of which 278 was LPG AT A COST OF £36.10. Lol Happy days. £1090 is really cheap unless prices have dropped. Ifty -

I would get it converted. It is very important that you use an installer who has done LSs before. I used Birmingham Autogas as he had an LS430 which he converted himself. He had done loads of lexuses and I had a three week wait. Best thing I ever did. I never had a problem except for a solenoid which he replaced for free the same day I took it to him. Ifty -
My Ls430

My kids love it. The 6 year old always sits in the back and has a massage for the brief ten minute journey to school. He always talks to see how the massager changes his voice. He just doesn't shut up. Pity now he has to sit in his mothers car. Ifty -
My Ls430

Yes. I guess they are making the car spaces narrow. The annoying thing is they are putting ballads aswell so the car has to stick out. I am lucky with three kids that I get to park in the father toddler spot. Lol. I haven't driven it for a week. I think I'll drive to London and Slough on Wednesday. Yeh that's a great idea. Ifty -

thanks guys I will upload more pictures once I take them. I bought this in 2010 and the interior is beige. It's been stood for a month due to me being abroad. Put road tax on it and drove it to work in London. The love was rekindled as soon as I drove off. Lol Ifty Definitely the best Lexus I have owned -
