steve have you chekced your boot to ensure it is not leaking - the boot seal is known to leak - oftn causing problems with the cd drive in the boot

I see, If you're doing 6,000 miles a year on the LS, you won't really need LPG for it as they are quite economical (for a V8 anyway). I had a Camry with a V6 3.0ltr engine (95Nreg) a few years ago. One of the finest cars I've ever owned. I only used it on weekends so I didn't really think about fuel economy. Then I had to start using it more frequently and then I realised the Camry was quite thirsty for daily use. I know for a fact that the LS mk IV is more economical than a V6 Camry!! OluGTR. totally agree with that - i had a 3.0 V6 GX before i bought the lex 2 years ago - very nice cars indeed and certainly something rare and different - only had 54k on it and was immaculate when i sold it

hi couldnt agree more with simon - ive had my mark 3 coming upto 2 years and enjoyed every moment - hoping to upgrade to the ls430 next year preferably post 53 plate becuase of the sleeker front end looks! simon i managed to find a cd changer frm a breaker so all sorted now thanks

hi i agree with you regarding the looks of the 430 - the 53 plates are better looking! sorry i cannot answer your question and this may be going off topic but you mention owning a 750il - how does a beemer compare to the lex? comfort reliability build quality??

hi the colour codes are on the aluminium plate which is fixed to the body in the engine bay (left hand side when facing the back of the car with bonnet open) near the the bit where the suspension is fixed to it will say something like 6P3 A02A 6P3 is the main body colour A02A refers to the trim colour the data badge does not give the colour code for the lower part of the LS - i got this by googling "Car Paint Wizard" HTH Miq

steve these brake indicators where abouts are the wires - i had a look the other day but couldnt figure it out - is there one for each side or just one side - plz advise need to put my liight out aswell!!

if you google car paint wizard they will be able to help - you can order online aswell

that will fit the mark 3 95-97 but may also fit the mark 4 - i have just checked mine and its the same part number - my LS is 96

mine unlocks all aswell - i have the original 3 button remote

just tried it on the LS - doesnt do it

that if you switch the igntion off with the windows open you can still operate the windows untill one of the doors is opened - once a door is opened the power cuts out - very helpful if you forget to close the windows before switching off on a sunny day like today - i thought this was a brilliant idea! is there anything they didnt think of..............................

according to toyodiy the cartridge part number is 86273-50050 hope this helps

well the MK4 over MK3 has the following: Sat Nav, Softer Leather Seats, better VVTI engine, Xenon Lights. The 430 over the 400 has: Heated/cooled massage seats, DVD Sat Nav, Xenons, Parking Sensors, Extra Woodtrim and it also comes with the consensus that it is best of all 3 LSs

56 LITRES = 12.31 GALLONS 230 / 12.31 = 18.68 miles per gallon assuming LPG is roughly half the price of petrol you get roughly 37 MPG

You dare not ...... :) Ford scorpio lights on a ruler designed LS400 is not a good look, and as for the later versions which look like stretched Citroen C3's ....... dont get me started ........... Awaiting flaming ;) i agree with you! - but when the time comes i may over-rule the looks preference for the extra gadgets the 430 has to offer - id be mad not to - it goes without saying once a lexus driver always a lexus driver. The other day i went to look at my mates 04 plate skoda octavia - he seemed over the moon with it - but to me it looked so cheapy cheerfully hallowy plasticy tack - nothing compared to the bombproof construction found on every inch in the lexus! i have yet to come across a car which will top a lexus in terms of build quality and reliability!

to change the wiper switch on igntion and wipers and then switch off ignition as soon as the reach the end of the stroke - you should have plenty of access then - some refills have metal back or plastic back and they also should have some sort of locking clip at one end to prevent the wiper from slipping out. With regards to the price paid i can tell you we buy these in at 12 pence for a 28 inch refill!! - you could of picked them up alot cheaper online. HTH

mine is empty aswell

ha ha this 400 or 430 never end or comes to a conclusion! - i have been running a mark 3 for 18 months and have been very happy with but from time to time i still think of upgrading but dont know wether it to go for a mark 4 or wait a little and pick up a 430. I do really fancy the 430 wih the extra few gadgets and DVD sat nav BUT i prefer the looks of the Mark 4. The do like the facelift version of the 430. Couple of guys on here have commented on electical and rust problems with the 430 i shall keep reading.............

i second ROYT - mine does exactly the same

Arial is a type of washing powder ( so I'm told) Antenna is a device for receiving radio signals! :D Youre wrong steve - "Arial" is a font! (this is really helping the OP question! )
