Thanks very much for taking the time to reply. As ive said, the car was just out of warranty and lexus would only offer a good will gesture of £600 towards the cost of the replacemet, which i think is poor considering the brand reputation etc. anyway, looks like a Tom Tom is the order of the day, and the next car (possibly another Lexus) will be without the built in sat nav if it only lasts three years! Thanks again.

Good evening all. Im hoping someone out there can help me with a problem Ive recently encountered. My is220d has just passed its 60k and 3 year old mark (both within a week, spooky) however, at 62k and two weeks past its third birthday the sat nav has stopped working and the screen reads 'check dvd' I took it my Lexus dealer who informed me it was the dvd reader and this would be £1400 to fix, and beacuse it was 'out of warranty' wouldnt help out with the cost. i explained that I had purchased seven new toyotas and two Lexus' previously but the best they would do is reduce the cost to £800.00 and I would still need to pay the labour!! (they wont get my JD power award this year) Anyway, the disc is in the unit and you can hear it spinning freely, the touch screen for all other functions (audio,a/c etc) works fine, as does the cd changer and dvd player (movies) so its just the additional dvd drive thats apparently not working. Can anyone help me, as I dont want to pay the best part of £1000 for what seems a small fix. could it be the disc? Please help... Kind regards
