  1. The system is not pre-set at the factory you must put in a three identification number decided by you. 1. Make sure the radio is turned off with the ignition switch in Acc 2. While holding the left side of the 1 and 2 button and the right side of the 5 and 6 button push and hold the power button until SEC appears on the display. 2. Press the left side of the 1 & 2 button while holding the upperside of the tune seek button "- - -" and the tape operation will appear on the display. 3. input your identification number by pressing hte 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 buttons repeatedly. Use the left side of the 1 and 2 button for the first digit the right side of the 1 and 2 butotn for the second digit. The left side of the 3 and 4 button for the last digit. For example if your number is 420 press the 1 button 5 times, the 2 button 3 times and the 3 button once. With you identification number appearing on the display press the scan button and hold it in until sec appears on the display. This will go off to indicate the system is set. Once it is set sec will appear each time the key is turned to the acc position. Hope this helps. I copied from the Lexus manual. It seems that if your radio has noit be set by the previous owner then sec will not appear each time the key is turned to the acc position.
  2. Looks like corrosion or some sort of pitting proberley caused by the salt on the roads over winter .i think other people on this site have the same problem.
  3. Its not that the cd sounds worse than the radio it just has no bass.What is eq
  4. Can anyone tell me if the mk1 GS alarm can be made to beep when activated and de-activated
  5. The mk1 with out a doubt much sportier looking ,the mk2 reminds me off a hyundai (Sorry if that offends anyone).Saying that i would swap mine for a hyundai GS430 anyday :D
  6. Try www.autostyle.co.uk i got my mats from these and they are better than the lexus ones
  7. Tried the lot but still sounds bad on cd (lack of bass).Checked rear bass speaker today seems to be working fine .Asked dealer today and he suggested taking it to a local audio shop so me thinks i will tomorrow hopefully a cheap solution.
  8. been thinking of doing mine for a while now did you use normal hammerite or do they do a heat resistant one .
  9. Thanks for the reply Is that the speakers in the doors or the rear shelf ,Also what is a kicker
  10. Has the is200 got a diagonal shoulder middle belt if so can u put him in that ,I to had this problem i have 2 of the little cherubs and in the end i had to sell car(audi A4) and buy one with more leg room.it seems to get better as they get bigger as their legs bend over the seat instead of sticking straight out.
  11. Has anyone changed the rear speakers or done anything else to improve the bass on the rear speakers on a GS300 mk1 ,i have had my car over a month now and apart from the fuel consumption this is the only thing that realy niggles me(and the squeaky centre arm rest :D )my van has a better sound .The radio is not bad but put on a cd and it is pants .Can i just add an amp or do i have to change speakers etc .I have never upgraded a sound system in any car so any advice would be welcome.
  12. Has anyone fitted a turbo to a GS300 mk1 ,If so how much was it and how will it affect fuel consumption if at all ,Also can it harm engine in any way.
  13. I just looked through all cars in the gs300 gallery and could not find one with the brake light in the spoiler could this be an aftermarket spoiler .Also parkers list sport bhp as 218 and standard car as 209 bhp and 0.2 seconds difference in the 0-60 time ,anyone know why.
  14. I tried everywere and no one came close to tesco's on my GS300.
  15. After making some calls it seems that all sport models start life as normal spec cars but when they arrive in this country they have all the bits put on them at the port.Also cars built after 1996 had brake light in window not in spoiler.Also in most cases log book will not state sport
  16. It is just a thought but the sport model has slightley more bhp than non sport is there any way of telling from the engine code etc.
  17. Now i am getting worried bought my sport model 4 weeks ago from main dealer and paid sport money it has 18" alloys etc but no rear brake light in spoiler have i bought a non sport model badged up as a sport ,log book just states GS300 but service book states sport do,s anyone know the difference or is there a deffenate way of telling.
  18. Button on right locks boot lid and stops it being opened form the inside without a key and the long thing on the rear shelf must be the high level brake light or the rear speaker.As for the acceleration i think it depends on previous car i had a T5R so also find it a bit tame but hell of a lot smoother and more comfortable plus it has not broken down yet which is more than can be said for volvo(new gearbox needed 31,000m cost £3500 ). Traction control was only on left hand drive models according to handbook.
  19. I would think that GS will devalue alot quicker than your is300 and be alot harder to sell when you decide to get another car.
  20. 27 mpg you must have been very light footed i drove mine 60 miles yesterday mostly motorway and got 23mpg :(
  21. Is it poss to make the yellow front indicaters on the mk1 gs300 clear like some of the is200 's if so has anyone done it and do's it look as good as i think it would
  22. Is the lpg in the boot and if so how much space will i lose as with 2 small kids i need all the room i can get .
  23. anyone that D & D's is scum and derserves all they get but we should all remember speeding can sometimes have the same consequences .
