    Good Morning, My sunroof has started to rattle on my 2005 IS250, upon checking it I have found that the front offside corner of the sunroof has dropped about 3mm below the roofline, I can push the roof up to the correct level from the inside, Any advice how to adjust it, I did a topic search but couldn't find anything for this issue Regards Grant

    Thanks Tel, it is working fine, but I want to tidy up the front of the car. Interesting you are surprised that a 2006 has radar, I first saw the vehicle on this website with a link to it, fellow members had described it as a unicorn vehicle due to the added extras, is sports body kit, sat nav, radar cruise, climate control and sunroof, heated and cooled seats etc etc

    Good Evening, my 2006 IS250 has the radar cruise control fitted, my question is the front badge with L on it has become tarnished, and has a cloudy covering, does this badge have anything to do with the cruise or are the sender units either side, the drawing in the manual isn't clear. I was hoping I could use a T cut type formula to tidy it up, Any advice appreciated Regards Grant

    Thanks Beamish, that's appreciated, I totally love the car but I have to say the sat nav is not easy to use and the reversing camera options even worse, I will have a read and hopefully understand it better, thanks again Grant

    Thanks Bob, it has worked, I've downloaded it, I will have a good read, really appreciate you taking time to send me the link Grant

    Thanks Bob, I will try it with different types of parking, I'm surprised it's not mentioned in the handbook, I don't have the navigation handbook but a member sent me a link to print one, but again no description of what they do, thanks for your help

    Thank you, the part I'm confused with is the squares on the lower corners of the touchscreen, when pressed the lines move to different areas, just not sure what they do, sorry if I'm being thick

    Sorry Guys, I've awarded my self the being stupid award for today, I've sorted it, I had pressed a button on the screen which changed the format, unfortunately I don't have the book that covers the rear camera and what it all means, and the one I've downloaded doesn't cover it either, sorry for wasting your time

    Good Morning all, I purchased the 05 IS 250 that had a link posted on this site, I'm really impressed with the car, one issue is when I put the car into reverse the camera brings the image from behind but the lines seem all over the place and the words "guidance unavailable" is on the screen. I understand it may need to be recalibrated, but I can't find out how to do it, any advice please Regards Grant

    The cost between fully and semi is so small I always use fully synthetic, it's worth keeping an eye on shops like Halfrauds or Euro car parts as they have regular sales on oils, and I stock up then

    Thanks Texas, it's an Android phone but suspect it's a more modern version than was about when the car software was designed, thanks for your reply

    Good Evening I've connected the phone Bluetooth to the car and it's confirmed that it's connected, I can also make and receive calls, I tried to move my contacts list across and as soon as I try it seems like the Bluetooth disconnects as it turns off on my phone, has anyone else had this issue. As per the manual the engine was running whilst I tried, any advice welcome Grant

    Good Morning, My IS250 is showing the sat nav disc as 07, is it worth updating it, I have seen some sites selling updated discs for £25 has anyone purchased a disc other than from a main dealer. Regards
  15. Grant moss
    It does look complicated Mike, but the manual will be useful to sync the phone to the system as my disc is 12yrs old I'm sure a lot of roads will be out of day, I must admit I do like Google maps for its live traffic info
  16. Grant moss
    Thanks bobmc and Texas, I will download a copy in the short term, I've worked out my maps is version 07, so will also upgrade the disc, although I don't think we have built many new road since then !

    A quick update for you all, I collected vehicle on Friday and I love it, I keep finding toys I didn't realise it had, I've used black leather revono on the seats today and they have come up like new. The only issue I have is the manual for the sat nav is missing, so I'm struggling to set it up along with the phone etc, I have posted on this site to see if anyone can assist. I found the vehicle through this thread so thank you very much. Grant

    Good Evening, I purchased a 2005 IS 250 last week which has sat nav, i love the vehicle but I'm struggling to use the sat nav and connect to my phone, does anyone have a manual or link to one please Kind Regards Grant

    In relation to the link from linas.p and the comment about the vehicle being a unicorn vehicle if it had a moon roof, I can confirm it does have a moon roof as I have purchased it today, it's an amazing vehicle, all it needs is the headlight lens to be sorted as they have gone cloudy and a piece of chrome looking plastic trim on the boot to be changed as it has faded, the dealer will sort the lights out, I collect it on Thursday, I can't wait

    Not yet I'm away on holiday, I'm also checking autotrader but haven't found one near enough yet to go and see it, once I have sold my Z3 I will be in a better position,

    Thanks for the info, really appreciated

    Thank you Andrew for your write up, as someone who is looking to purchase one around 2008 it's really helpful, it's concerning about Lexus Cambridge, when I had my RX300 Lexus Coventry were outstanding, if you decide to sell your vehicle let me know as it's obviously a well cared for car and the timing could be good Congratulations on the addition to your family Grant

    Good Evening, Many years ago I had a RX 300 and I always promised myself I would come back to Lexus, I'm looking to buy a GS 450h, it would be a 2007/8 model year, are they an expensive money pit as some people say or are they great value, and advice appreciated Regards Grant

    Hi I had a problem with my ABS, it is a RX 300 model year 2001, it was activating when I pulled away slowly, I took it into the Lexus dealership and they found that the airgap!!! on the sensor was incorrect, they cleaned and reset it and no problems over the last 8 months. it could be the same fault but causing a slightly different effect.
  25. Grant moss
    Boxbrownie the way you described is what the dealer explained, they said they also cleaned and adjusted the parking brake, I have to say it now is back to normal and a pleasure to drive, Im pleased the dealer cleaned and reset the sensor, as Im sure a lot would have fitted a new part, so well done to Lexus Coventry. Patch 234 to answer your question my vehicle is smoke grey (not the official name but it describes it well). I have never seen a white one. Regards Grant
