  1. Thanks Colin. I got in touch with Ricky's Lexus parts and bought from him just now.
  2. Thanks Chris. Is Ricky's Lexus Parts.on this forum too. Perhaps, I can message him.
  3. Hello, The driver side electric window switch is faulty. According to the mechanic, I can't just replace the switch. It will have to be the complete unite which contains all four switches. Any recommendations on where I could get one from a reliable source. Lexus Edgware are too expensive (£450).
  4. Hello, Hope somebody can help. The outside temperature is being incorrectly displayed. Despite being mid teens outside, the display inside is showing 37 degrees. The temperature sensor isn't near the radiator. When the mechanic removed the sensor, temperature display 0 degrees. I phoned up Lexus, Edgware and they're quoting £58 for the sensor. Can you recommend somewhere else?

  6. Hi, I posted this yesterday, but can't find the post. Here goes again. I wanted to know what would be the difference between is250 se-l and is250 advance feature wise. Thanks.
  7. Thanks Sparkystav. I've been hood winked as today I had the expansion tank/fan shroud replaced as it was leaking. Excuse my ignorance, but is there a way of checking that the fan does work by running the AC. One thing I do want to point out is that there is not enough cooling in the car.
  8. Hi, Hope somebody can help. One of the fans on my IS200 SE is not turning either stationary or on the move. The car is not overheating (gauge is one notch below the center on the temperature gauge). Rather than taking the expensive route and purchasing the fan blade or motor, could it be something else that I need to address. If I do need to purchase the fan blade and/or motor, can somebody recommend where I can get them cheaper. I'm in West London. Thanks. Navstar.
  9. Hi, I wanted to know what I should cover in having my Lexus IS 200 SE serviced. The last sevice was in 2010 which covered oil and oil filter change. Prior to this in 2009, I had a full 60k service inc cam belt change, spark plugs, all filters, fluids. etc... Navstar
  10. Thanks Parthiban. Auto Audio is a different company. Jay - I'd appreciate it if you can find the contact details of the person whose quoted you £700. The seats have had better days. Valeting hasn't helped.
  11. Hi, I'm looking to re-upholster the front seats of my IS 200. They're light tan leather with perforated suede in the middle section. I've approached CE Moore communicaions in Park Royal who have quoted 500+VAT per seat or £350+VAT for the fron and sides as the back and head rest are fine. I was wondering if there other recommendations and competitve price wise.
  12. Hi, This time last year, I had my IS AC refilled by Kwikfit. When I came to use the AC this summer, AC was blowing hot air. I had it re-filled again 3 weeks ago. Over the weekend, I noticed that one minute I was getting cold air and the next not soemthing in between cold and hot air. This was alternating. Also, when I moved the fan dial to max, the ventilation fan was making alternating loud and silent noise. Any ideas on these points? Navstar.
  13. Hi, I have surface and deep scratches on the dashboard around the CD unit. Can somebody recommend a place in the London area whom I can approach or alternatively how to remove them myself. Thanks.
  14. Hi Guys, Thanks for the responses. I've only got round to coming back to the site today. Too late to try as I've returned it and asked for the ipod version to be sent. Vista does not have FAT16 option. Thanks once again.
  15. Paul, Formatted using Vista with Fat32 with 16kb allocation.
  16. I installed the Grom USB adapter but it failed to play any tracks on the USB stick. I tried another stick thinking the previous might be damaged. Made no difference. 1. It recognizes the USB stick for a few seconds becasue the red light flickers on the stick but then it goes out and I can't hear the songs. 2. I upgraded the firmware from Grom's site that was meant to be compatible with the plastic Grom box that I was sent. No change. 3. I setup the folder as instructed on Grom's site. For example, 1-House, 2-Favourties etc... and dropped a track in each folder. No change. 4. I formatted the usb stick. No change. 5. The auxillary cable that came with the adapter worked fine with the adapter. Are there any known problems with the lexus 6 cd changer? Has anybody else bought this version. I'm not having much luch with adapters. First xcarlink now this. Third time lucky most like plump for the ipod version now.
  17. black only looks nice with front and back tinted windows and lexus sport wheels I have a Blue but now tendency towards Black after seeing a well maintained Black Lexus outside Jap Parts the other day. You could see yourself it had a brilliant shine.
  18. I'll check for the number. Regarding xcar link adapter, I'm returning it as they're on N. circular whichh isn't too far for me. I've ordered the grom today and should be here tomorrow. Received the grom today. Where does everybody place their adpater?
  19. It's 13906. Should the Grom be compatible,
  20. Sure good luck with the grom - if your stereo's a 13902 then it's a bit 50:50 as to whether the grom will work, but otherwise it should be fine :) Thanks. Is this number on the side (only visible once the head unit is removed) or at the front.
  21. I'll check for the number. Regarding xcar link adapter, I'm returning it as they're on N. circular whichh isn't too far for me. I've ordered the grom today and should be here tomorrow.
  22. Parthiban - They're standard alloys that come on the lexus. Is wheelrefurbshing.com, wheels in motion.
