  1. I am having trouble unscrewing this, space is so tight there, how do i unscrew this ? please see pic Thanks
  2. Yea they are 5 x120 pcd and offset is 16 positive. Front imsure is fine but rear 275 and 10j is I’m worried about.
  3. Hi all I have seen some wheels not sure if it’s negative or positive. Please see pics 20” front 9j with -16 offset 245 35 20 tear 10 j with -16 offset 275 35 20 would tear fit without any rubbing or hassle ? Cheers
  4. I assumed my 430 and 460 wheels are same pcd. 430 is 5x114.3 but garage man telling me 460 pcd is 5x120 really ?? Thanks.
  5. This gizmo above steering shaft which reads face. How does it work ? Or how to enable it ? I tried to look away for few seconds on open wide road but seems to do nothing ?
  6. when you are looking for a car you never find one, and when you buy one you suddenly spot the car you always wanted. Ideally I was looking for one in black color and with low miles. This was an pure impulse buy. I have seen another one which I fancy now. This one has some small niggles, nothing major but before i start fixing thing and put money on it, I just want to try my luck quickly and see if It sells. If it doesnt in next couple of weeks, then I will just start fixing small niggles to make it perfect and keep it for some years. I only bought it 4 days ago and I have already spent some money on it, cant resist. castrol gtx oil change with new filter 4 wheel tracking / alignment and full balancing new bosch wipers new aluminium pressed plates door module on order polish / wax alloys touched up chrome exhaust tips cleaned and freshened up coolant flush and new antifreez full vallet inside out lol
  7. Hi All, I am thinking about getting some warranty for my car, but all online ones dont do cars with over 150k max. Any idea where I can get some warranty for my car with 202k miles ? I just needs some peace of mind if some thing goes wrong. Thanks
  8. yea blue one, with very low miles. looks great and at such a low miles shame it has this fault.
  9. Good point. But how can I avoid this happening again. I am wondering how to test new module carefully? So this doesn’t happen. Any precautions ?
  10. 460 = Fuel economy much better than 430. In town i used to get 45 miles out of £20 petrol but this 460 returned 75 miles for city driving. impressive.
  11. Connector is not getting any power when I tested it with test meter, but when you connect module power comes in. SO i think module must be connected to draw power. with module connected i noticed power is coming in but not going out to other bits connected to module as in, light, sun shade motor, actuator, small led etc. So i am guessing its defo module unit at fault. I have ordered one from breakers so lets see when it turns up. I will report back. Thanks
  12. tried fuse no luck :( I cant be bothered with taking other door apart, ordered new /used module from ebay £35 lets see. keep ideas coming guys Thanks
  13. so today decided to check all fuses but all seem ok. I have small issue here and not sure about it. if you look at picture below, according to book 5A fuse VSSR POWER CONTROL SYSTEM should be in bottom slot but at the moment its in top slot. I am scared to move it. Can I just try it ? what would happen ? also took door apart and wondering if this control module is at fault, I have ordered one from ebay and lets see.
  14. Hi All My rear left door Symptoms : Door would not lock or unlock using key fob or keyless or using lock / unlock button on drivers arm. Soft power auto closure not working sun shade is not going up or down Memory button green led is not lit light behind door handle is not lit I cant lock or unlock door from outside (keyless ) But window goes up n down and LED light on window button is lit ?? any help please ? should i disconnet battery for 10 minutes ? Thanks
  15. Hi all, as you know I just bought 460 and drove back to edinburgh from manchester area. My first journey in 460 and first time in life :) did about 300 miles, mixture of A roads and motorway. Here is my opinion purely based on 1 day driving, later my opinion might change :) Here is my comparison 430 vs 460 460 POSITIVES: 1. Looks new modern and lots of latest gadgets inside compare to 430. 2. Feels bigger than 430. 3. Power steering is super light and smooth 4. Brakes are very sharp and very precised 5. better road visibility. 6. Better MPG 7. feels much lighter and easy to drive. 460 NEGATIVES: 1. Tight boot space. 430 boot is much bigger. I keep couple of boxes in car always full of cleaning stuff and topups etc and still there was plenty space left in 430 for shopping bags but with 460 hardly any space left in boot. my Suitcase which fits nicely in 430 doesnt fit in 460 :( 2. 8 speed auto box is good but feels slow and sluggish when it comes to kick down, if i put my foot down to over take, it feels sluggish and takes its time to shift down and feels like gear box is confused and struggling to decide which gear to select. 430 kick down was much faster. ( maybe its just me getting used to 8 speed box ) 3. Ride quality is not bad but I think 430 rides much better. 430 sticks to road on motor way with sport mode on, 460 feels like is struggling to grip onto road when you suddenly go over some bump / dip. 4. Interior is nice but feels, clumsy / plasticy / fragile. 5. 430 cabin was much quiter but in 460 you hear wind noise. ( not bad just being very picky here ) Thats all for just now :), Will add more to it as time goes by :) QUESTIONS : Rear left Door would not lock or unlock using key fob or keyless or using lock / unlock button on drivers arm. Soft power auto closure not working sun shade is not going up or down But window goes up n down. feels like there is no power but window works ok, but why all other functions related to door have stopped working. ? driver side window when going up suddenly starts going down. as if you pressed down button suddenly. happens very intermittently but did happen to me 2 times out of 10. Boot opens and closes very slowly, is that normal ? Thanks AJ
  16. Should I do some sort of reset on car since it’s under new owners ship now ? As in battery or ecu reset and let car relearn new drivers habits etc ? If yes please advise how to do it ? Thanks.
  17. Drove from Edinburgh to Manchester in 430 and now going back up tomorrow in 460. So will do comparison tomorrow some time. Already missing my exhaust roar, 460 is dead quite 😊
  18. Thanks guys. Hoping to pick my new car today. 460 SE-L silver 😊 went for viewing last night and going again today in day light. Few small issues I noticed. Driver window when going up suddenly goes down and takes couple of attempts to pull up ? Same with Sunroof tilt ? Rear left sun shade / blind doesn’t go up at all ? Should I be worried or just ignore these small niggles ? Thanks.
  19. Many thanks. I am looking at 2007 SE-L keycard is missing. Can I buy this from lexus and how much ? Roughly ? Has 2007 SE-L got auto parking feature ? Thanks.
  20. Hi All, I have seen few LS460 advertised, some as SE and some as SE-L models. Are there different versions of LS ? and whats difference really ? Also check pictures below and tell me what is this thing above steering column. Thanks
