Think I might have to give them a go then sounds not to bad. If you do have any problems be thankful if you could post them up and i'll let everyone know how i get on.

I sense a hint of annoyance with your Lexus jazzy, but on your comment that you bought the lexus for it's reliability and your saying it hasn't been. Your car actually hasn't let you down has it!! :P It may be drinking petrol but i'm pretty sure you have a problem with your car an that's not the cars fault. If the poor girl is all clogged up then i'm not surprised it's guzzling a bit of fuel. I hope you get it sorted as the IS's are brilliant and alot less hassle than most especailly Alfa's.

If Kazi is going i may be able to tag along. So possibly see you all there.

You could take your wheel off have a look see if anything is caught in there and try giving it a clean out. If still no joy then you'd have to get a garage to take brakes apart to check properly, unless you feel confident taking then apart yourslef it's not too difficult with a bit of experience. :duh:

I'd suggest the wheel bearing but it not something that is intermittent it's normally present all the time. Is there any noise when your turning then is a sign of a bearing or a joint. If you want to check the pads just get the wheel off and have the pads greased up again and then you should know if it's the pads or not, getting that done shouldn't cost anything or very little. :) Hope you get it sorted though it's anoying having noises coming from your car.

I have to agree that the 300 and the 200 look pretty much the same and driving down the street you wouldn't notice the difference. Also personally i'd get to bored driving an automatic, where's the fun?? At the end of the day still a Lexus so going to be a good car! :D

Welcome to the LOC, hopefully you can convince the missus it's a good idea to do the mod's. If not there's plenty more women out there Don't forget to get some pic's up also!!

Road tax is so ridiculous and all it seems to pay for are speed bumos and speed traps!! Soon we'll be paying for having passengers and what shoes you drive in

I'm also a huge fan of Ferrari's theres a garage near me called Top 555 which sells the top class cars such as Ferrari's, Lambo's, Aston Martins etc etc. My favourite is the 575 maranello it's gorgeous especially in silver. B)

It's mainly tyres that effect road noise!! Also, make sure your windows are closed that makes a little difference If all else fails turn the stereo up until you can't hear anything else!!

Program Is200 To Autolock Etc...?
Rikos replied to eightysix's topic in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 Club
think he means 2 seperate things. 1. when you lock the car with the key fob it gives a quick beep 2 auto locking of the doors once a certain speed has been reached you got it :) Yeah i know about the auto locking, easy enough to press the button inside though :) thats just being lazy to get the car to do it for you!! Not saying he's lazy though :D Hope he get's it sorted anyway B) -
Your one lucky man glad to hear you are though it's horrible having damage to your car that's going to cost a fortune to fix. Hope there's no hidden damage. :duh:

It's a really nice motor!! Wheels are nice but a bit too much for me personally. I'd like to see the after shot's of a drive round city roads in england over a few speed bumps and pot holes Plus as you can see the sound system through the back window, if you parked that in this country you know within 5 minutes of leaving it some thieveing chavvy little :tsktsk: will of done his best to put it in his Nova!!

Program Is200 To Autolock Etc...?
Rikos replied to eightysix's topic in Lexus IS200 / Lexus IS300 Club
Just a quick question, why do you want the horn to sound when you lock your doors all that will do is draw attention to your self!! Each to their own at the end of the day, just wondered :) -
Hi mate and welcome to the LOC. Don't forget to get some pic's up soon and look forward to seeing the mod's when you've managed to get them done. Sure you'll find all your answers to any questions on here. :D
-
Hi and welcome, as noone else has mentioned it make sure you get some pic's up soon! :D
-
Nasty!!! Hope it's not going to cost too much and you can get it sorted without any problems.
-
Welocme to LOC sure you'll find the answers to any questions you have on here. Good luck in the search.

Bodykit looks nice fit's car well!! How much piping is needed for the air filter?? No wonder Wembley took so long to build looks like you stole their scaffolding! :D only kidding! Does it make a nice sound? Not sure if i'd of changed from standard stereo but if previous owner was having problems with it then fair enough. But in my opinion it's a very tidy motor!! Any plans to add some more mod's?
-
Car looks mint mate and looking forward to seeing pics after you've done some mod's!! Looks like you've got alot of plans and your cut out, good luck :D
-
There's always exceptions to the rule ..... unfortuantley not enough!! I watched one woman go round a roundabout the wrong way and she looked confused as to why everyone was shouting abuse and holding their hands down on the horn!!! Anyway my sympathy's go out and i hope it get's sorted asap and back to how it was.

I did a challenge and filled my tank to the brim to see how much i could get out of a full tank. I filled up about 15 miles after the orange petrol light had come on and I had done 375 miles. It is possible don't think it's divine intervention and if it is i hope it keeps happening. I didn't drive too sensibly either did some good speeds on the motorways down to a mates house. I hope everyone can get the petrol guzzling sorted and stop cursing the IS
