  1. I've had the same, but it goes away fairly quickly, so I'm not too concerned.
  2. I agree about the winter tyres, was thinking the weight of the battery might improve things further. Will start looking at winter tyres I think.
  3. A bit early to be talking about snow, but as we know, Rwd is notoriously bad in the snow. Do you think the fact that the battery is over the rear wheels will improve the traction in any way?, I have noticed the extra weight at the back at times, when going over certain bumps etc.
  4. You will love it, I’m sure. Although I’m feeling cheated every time the EV light goes out now.
  5. Thanks for your help and advice DJP & Steve44, its working, I must have tethering on my plan, also tried lower case and bingo.
  6. I have with the phone contacts, I can make and receive calls etc. I have 3g on and the personal hotspot on, on the phone. It may be the tethering, with regards to my phone contract, I’m going to call T-mobile to clarify. Frustrating.
  7. No joy, keeps coming up with, portal login not possible or error code id 214. Is it case sensitive, when entering the username and password in the car?.
  8. Its an iPhone 4s, I haven’t a clue with all this, although I will check my contract, with regards to tethering, as I didn’t know about that, thanks for the advice, will report back with the results, was all excited last night, setting up a route on the pc then sending it to the car, smallest things!. :) Just done some research, t-mobile/ee stopped tethering on my plan a couple of years ago, so that may be it, GITS.
  9. Ive just changed from an A4, 2.7tdi, S-line, and the IS is better in every way, and I didn’t think it would be. Dont get me wrong, the Audi was a fantastic car and very refined for a diesel, but the Lexus is a step up again, Every thing is more comfortable and refined. I don’t remember much of my trips so far, as I’ve been too busy looking at the economy and gauges, I upset someone at the lights today because I pulled away too slowly and he was getting a little annoyed.
  10. I did try the personal hotspot, and also enabled data roaming, although i’m not sure if I needed to enable that one. I don’t get the option to add country and service provider, like the video shows on the portal, so I’m a bit stuck at the moment.
  11. Didn’t work, keeps coming up with error id-214.
  12. Just added a route on the portal, and sent it to the car, will check if it worked in the morning. Fingers crossed.
  13. 59.1mpg on the journey home from swindon to kent, mainly motorway, which is impressive, as it would of been using the engine, most of the time. It's dropped to 55mpg now, I'm still amazed. What a great car.
  14. I’ve seen pictures of the interior lights in blue, is there an option for them to be changed?. They are white at the moment.
  15. Thanks DJP, I’ll have a play with the settings a bit later, do I have to have the phone on an special settings.
  16. I'm not very good with these things, would someone be kind enough to tell me how I can receive e-mail on the navigation, I've had text messages, but not sure what I need to do for mail. I have an I pnone 4s. Thanks all.
  17. Haha, I could tell straight away, you are a good bunch.
  18. I picked up my F-sport on friday, and I have to say, it’s exceeded my expectations. comparing it to my A4 s-line, the ride is a tad more compliant, and the seats are a lot more comfortable, typically Lexus, is the best way to describe it. Road noise is a little high, but I put that down to the bridgestones, which are not the best tyres anyway. The gearbox is fine, I don’t know what the Journalists are going on about, Sport mode brings the car to life, and it seems more responsive than the Audi, which was a 2.7tdi, so more than quick enough for me, there is something very satisfying about driving around in EV mode or going down a long hill using no fuel, ECO mode is where I will keep it for now. I’m still unsure of Ultra Blue, I think it might be a bit lairy, I’m not sure. I’ll be spending the next few days playing with the screen settings etc, so may have a few questions, not completely sure about drive info1 & drive info 2 screens, or if I can make a call with just the steering wheel buttons without voice control. Glad to be a part of the club now, the Audi lot were a bit rude on the forums at times.
  19. Just filled up and it's showing a range of, 543 miles, I would of thought it would of been a fair bit higher, given the mpg I was getting.
  20. I've just returned home with my ultra blue F-sport, what a fantastic car, I’ll let the picture show you what the mpg was, over the 130mile journey home, I’m amazed. Also, how do I get the dial to change from tacho to the charge, power, eco gauge. Ahh, that didn’t turn out great, it was at 59.1 Mpg.
  21. £350 would of been the most I was expecting. I almost fell over when I was told.
  22. Been doing my research into the 300h, I've seen a few, with the 20k service the next one, and I've been quoted a price of £449, what do they do to justify that price.
  23. I think Continental Conti silents will be an interesting option.
  24. Thats disappointing, as you say, they are great, why they don’t have them, I don’t know. never mind.
