I don't have any creases on the seat base just one large one on the side cushion

Have you had a chance to take a pic?

It's more obvious from the passenger side

Here's a pic

Would this not be considered fair 'wear & tear'?

Just noticed that the vertical part of the seat cushion nearest the drivers door has got quite a noticable crase in it caused by me as I get in and out of the car.The other side is not affected Have other peoples seats gone like this? I've had the car for almost 7 months

Has anyone got a definite answer on this? I mean if you sold it the new owner would have to get the ECU reset if it does stop learning after 1000 miles

It must have been a build up of frost on the rear sensors

How often has your parking sensor malfunctioned due to it being frozen? It's happened to me twice with the temp below -4.This morning it was -6 and put it into reverse and got a continuous tone which didn't clear until I put it into D. I presume this is the parking sensor causing this?

Does the auto box in the IS 250 'learn' your driving style only during the first 1000 miles?

You might expect some tram lining with wide low profile tyres

Only done just over 2,000 miles but the handling doesn't feel the same as when new.On smooth A roads it doesnt feel that different from new but on the minor back roads it doesn't have the 'planted' feel that it did when new and the steering doesn't feel as 'tight'. Checked the tyres and they are all okay and correct pressure

It's in the manual p102 (1000km or 621 miles)

Mine doesn't have month and year on this plate

I've had mine for nearly 3 months now and I'm very pleased.It's nice car smooth car to drive.I think I may have a slight rattle in the front dash somewhere which has only appeared it the last month and seems to be temp related (seems to be more pronounced when the outside temp is higher),I haven't heard it in the last 2weeks but it has been cooler!. I have noticed that sometimes when the transmission is still not upto temp some of gear changes are noticable,is this normal? It only seems to be noticable on one section of road on my way home from work just after I start off but is never there when I start off from home to work in the morning.Road noise on the lower profile tyres is noticable and perhaps a bit higher than I would have expected but it's not too bad. The paint is not that bad as long as you're careful when washing/waxing.

My SE-L has Toyo's

What was it like for road noise?

In the morning when it's nearly light. This morning it kept going dim so I switched the headlamps off and then on,for a while the display was bright then but it kept going dim

In the morning when it's nearly light

Occasionally when the headlamps are on the instrument panel and the centre console lamps and display go dim.Turning the headlamps off and then on restores the lamps and displays to normal. Has this happened to anyone else?

Don't notice gear changes when accelerating normally but they are noticable when accelerating more brisky which is what I would expect What's your experience?

So mechanically the auto gear changes become smoother?

"It only gets better” what exactly do you mean? Not really expecting any changes.

Just wondering if the IS250 SE-L with autobox changes over time (ie driving feel etc) from new? BTW still no rattles!

What colour is it? I still have no rattle issues with my new 07 250SE-L after 8 days so perhaps (touch wood) later models have had these fixed
