That's probably it then - it's the pre facelift (69 plate). Weird because even my 07 IS250 had a dvd player back in the day!

Beginning to think maybe it's a fault - I'll try small and try a CD first...!

Cheers Mincey - yeah definitely parked - and 99% sure the parking brake is on (does it by default right?) Just wondered if anyone has actually successfully tried it and it definitely works?

I thought my 69 es could do this? I tried a few DVDs but nothing happened on screen. Am I missing something?

Happened on the way back during the pretty heavy slush that was going on up the M40 I stopped to get fuel (this time the pre-crash detection was off as well!), looked at the badge where the sensors are and there was a perfect disc of ice (as well as the entire grill and number plate!) Headlights were caked in ice/slush as well so gave it a going over before getting my wallet emptied by motorway services petrol and all was working once again. I should have taken a picture of the perfect disc of ice over the badge as it was rather amusing - made me wonder what happens to ES owners in countries with permanent weather like yesterday

Radar cruise control stopped working when it started snowing. Started working again as it stopped snowing - happened to anyone else?

Yeah it's definitely on in the lexus infotainment and fairly sure it's on in the android side just wondered if anyone else had the issue ?

Still not seen any ESs on the road... And I do around 400 miles a week down to Berkshire and back. Here goes some Q's that I've not as yet found an answer to in the manual. 1) can the radar cruise control distance be set to minimum by default? It's a marginal annoyance to have to set this every time I turn on CC 2) Auto-wipers? I could have sworn they worked at some point on a journey (definitely didn't work on my loaner) but could be Mandela effect 3) android auto - auto start-up. Seems a bit hit and miss. If I've been using android auto recently and then get back in car it will automatically start-up, but sometimes I have to click the android auto button on the infotainment (despite the music from AA coming through) All first world problems for sure but thought I'd ask!

As ES drivers should be 🧐

One thing I have noticed is about the LOC...it's rather quiet here these days. It was quite the hive of activity on the IS200 and 250 forums. Slightly quieter on the 300h but very very quiet here on ES. If the amount of ES's I see on the road are an indication (not one have I seen) then I suppose that answers my question

All of those were just a bit of googling so nothing concrete I'm afraid. If it were me I'd test it on an android and another iPhone (that isn't one you've already tested). If none of those work then it's a lexus issue. If any of those do work then I'd "take off and nuke the site from orbit" - full reset if your phone.

And one last thing....make sure Bluetooth and WiFi are enabled. Before trying to get carplay working make sure your phone can connect to the lexus infotainment via Bluetooth

In other cars you can hard start the process by holding the voice button on the steering wheel so could try that

Also make sure it's enabled when your phone is locked

Make sure car play isn't restricted? Setting/screen time/content. And privacy. Tap allowed apps and make sure car play is enabled
