    More stolen Lexus’ recovered… No one on here by any chance?

    Welcome to the fold. You can now “relax” for almost 10 years or whatever the balance of the warranty is. Not many cars you can say that about!

    Ironically it was only earlier in the week Lexus were saying they were not aware of issues with the LC…. Generic stock boiler plate responses to a serious issue. On the positive we should have a solution soon and it will probably involve software / EUC related changes not additional brackets and plates. But… I’m sure it’s not going to be the end of this, what they say and do remain to be seen for us Lc owners.

    Pictures on a sunny day would be most welcome

    We will need photos!!

    Fantastic and thank you for the update. Was your car still in warranty? Or part of the Lexus relax warranty? Sorry if you’ve shared this already.

    Check for leaves / debris in all the external vents. Specifically near the wipers etc…

    Top tips for the last gen info screen… use it in split mode. On the right you want climate. Left, whatever you want (music for me as sat nav is pants in all cars). Then make sure climate is on Auto (concierge) for passenger seat, wheel and drivers seat. if you find the auto function is a little too warm or hot change it the settings for a different default. job done!

    Mine was about £1900 for 2 Full and 1 minor.

    Lovely colour. It will look like a million bucks when the suns on it. It will transform to something that almost radiates light! Looks like it also has a Heads Up Display too… so it’s “fully loaded”.

    Don’t let my annoyance with the Bridgestones put a downer on it. I still love the car. And my “issue” is only noticeable when pushing on. More importantly, the beef is with the tyres not the car!
  12. shapiro
    Okay I’ve had this too. But it’s completely gone now. I thought it may have been the transmission acting up as you say it was when you pull off or coming to a stop. Lexus looked at it and could not replicate it. It’s not happened in over 6 months now. It didn’t manifest during any other scenario.
  13. shapiro
    Exactly this. The Bridgestones give me 100% traction to 0% with nothing in between. Does not inspire confidence at all IMO.

    Can you describe the noise? Is it a metallic “clunk”. A single one off sound when it flexes?
  15. shapiro
    Looks that’s way to me. 21 inch, likely scuffed so they refurbed them. They still suit the car though. I’m mine were not OEM I may have also chosen a diff colour.

    Don’t let this put you off. Whilst they may have been sloppy with the sale, the service and post purchase experience is different. I’m a big fan of bold colours, including yellow. Any issues (which in all likelihood will be niggles like a battery pack getting on) will be dealt with under the warranty.

    I’ve booked in for a service and they tried the cross sell with me… I declined. The cross selling is a little cheeky. If the car needs it, say it (and make it a service item) if it doesn’t, don’t try and push it and make it sound important.

    Red and Tan (ochre) was exactly the spec I wanted and waited for. Each to their own but the other options for me would have been black on red, or white on red. If I could choose some of the oversea options, in a heart beat manhattenage interior and black exterior. I would LOVE that combo.

    You let them wash your pride and joy? 🥹

    I had ps4s on my Tesla model 3 performance. Even in the worst conditions losing traction was a very very rare event. Granted it was 4wd but even so. I think I’ll swap them out as we are going for a few spirited drives in the next couple of months.

    Took the car out for a run today. Dry but cold. The Bridgestone’s are pants. Absolute pants. Can’t put anything down in terms of power. I may change them out of frustration as opposed to wear…next service is next month. Is Michelin the consensus?
  22. shapiro
    Out of curiosity, what’s the assumed root cause?
  23. shapiro
    Don’t see many in that colour. Or on the road this time of year!
  24. shapiro
    Totally agree with Malc. Buy your cars. and be sure you are comfortable with them shedding value in return for joy. If I lost 10k a year over 5 years but managed to do 10 road-trip oriented vacations into Europe, plus the usual daily smiles for miles… I think it’s money well spent.

    Prius owners, we salute you for your service.
