Thank you.

Hoe can I check these drain holes please?

In my case, since the car was white, wheree the brake and iron particles that had penetrated the clear coat and made an orange colour rust like spots. No bubbling or anything. This is what Lexus told me. Google search revealed that tjis is normal and happens with any car, but more evident on white cars. There are sprays to sort this. But not until I see photos would I be able to tell you if yours is in the same situation or not. I sold the car about 12 months ago and got an RX now. We needed a bigger car.

Would you mind sharing some photos?

That's what I found out too. But it's the dealer skin to point out such things to us. I got the car about a month ago, late January. I'm guessing with the cold we had the car battery may have discharged on the minus temperatures. They may have jump started it before I went for a test drive. This may have caused this. Having said that since car was purchased I've driven about 300 miles, this may not have been enough though.

Nicely put.

Exactly my experience from Lexus Hedge End (Southampton), but no good experiences from Lexus Exeter, although they're from the same group.

Thank you. The part as to why they couldn't do it is clear now with your help. The other part as to why they kept it "hush hush" is not clear to me. Is it under warranty? Is it not? Do I take it back after a few hundred miles and demand for it to be checked to have another 12 months warranty on it? Thank you.

Hi everyone, a little bit of an update. All the condensation/must from the rear lights seems to have disappeared now. We've covered about 250 miles with the car so far and all good. Yesterday the car went in for its annual service at the Lexus Exeter, part of the Snows group. The attached is the Hybrid battery health check report, which I found in the pack today. Having always had good experience with Lexus dealers I didn't check anything in the pack that was given to me and they never bothered telling me about it. I got in touch with them today but couldn't get through, so emailed my point of contact. Have to guys seen anything like this before? Is it something to worry about? Any help is appreciated.

Most likely. It is currently garaged in our house. Let's see if it will disappear soonish.

Here is the rear light on the drivers side. What do you reckon?

Thank you for your kind reply. I'll try to get used to it 😊 Not too worried about the fuel consumption as we needed the space. At least better fuel economy in comparison with equivalent cars of different brands. I'll send some photos of the lights soon. Yeah looks brand new indeed, better yet I paid low twenty thousands for it too.

Hi everyone, I just picked up our 2016 F Sport Sonic Titanium RX450h with 60k miles on it. Having had a CT200h for the past 5 years I can already see that there are alot of differences. A quick question in regards with the actual hybrid system and the way it should behave. On our CT200h we used to be able pull off junctions and roundabouts from standstill just with the electric motor then eventually if we wanted to speed up the ICE would kick in. On the RX however it's a different story. As soon as the gas pedal is pressed, even very very gently the ICE kicks in. Is this normal for the RX or something could be wrong with the car? The car is in the ECO MODE by the way. Also do you guy get any mist/water evaporation in the rear lights, the ones on the actual boot lid?

Thank you. Would you say that's a good deal?

Hi guys, I am in negotiation to buy a 2016 RX450h F Sport in Sonic Titanium with only about 16000 miles on the clocks from a Lexus dealer. Price is around £30k marks. Is this a good deal? Or would you say a premier with more miles at the same price or slightly higher would be better? What are the major differences between the F Sport and the Premier trims? Thank you.
