Hi all
i bought my IS220d from Lexus Belfast in oct 2006, it was pre reg'd from july but had only 4 miles on the clock. since then it has broken down 6 times!! 4 of those were 5th injector related, this was then repaired under the factory recall in sep 08. a week before christmas, the dash lights up like a christmas tree and i'm in limp mode again. this time it's diagnosed as the egr valve, i contacted lexus GB and went what can only be sescribed as 'boogaloo'! after much apologising and asuring me that this was not the normal lexus customer experiance, they agreed to extend the warranty by 6 months. Now, 5 weeks later, once again dash turns into disco lights and limp mode returns. the rac came out and once again diagnosed the problem as egr valve. guy from rac said he’d only seen 1 go before and that was on a car that hadn’t been started in over a year and had jammed. The fact that mine’s blown 2 in a month points to a deeper problem…. Queue ominous music
now, i'm meeting the dealership manager on friday morning, what can i expect from them? has anyone else experianced anything like this?
