    When it doesn't stall, what is the idle rpm of the engine?
  2. ColinBarber
    Lexus are within their rights to refuse warranty as there is no service history / stamp in the book.

    A deposit has been paid yet the vehicle is still advertised for sale. Why would someone pay £500 for an independent service when it would be cheaper at a Lexus dealer? The spoiler has been wrapped by the look of it - or a cheap one replaced the damaged original. The carbon should look exactly the same as the rear spoiler. No service history, and I doubt it has had the fuel pump recall done - Get your refund back and WALK AWAY.

    How do you find them compared to the OEM ones?

    Looks nice. States two keys but there should be two normal keys and a keycard.

    Exactly the problem then. They are designed to improved handling, with the ability to lower the vehicle, meaning they are stiffer which will compromise ride quality and noise. Even 'comfort' coilovers are harder than Lexus stock suspension.

    Dealkent was referring to Tesla, not Lexus.

    I think it makes a bigger difference on a saloon but still isn't that much in it compared to good quality OEM sprung suspension. What coilovers did you use - it is those, rather than being non-air, that has compromised the ride and increased noise.

    Assuming a Toyota/Lexus hybrid system then 5+ years is fine. 10+ years is where I draw the line, only for the fact that I don't want the hassle of getting a battery pack repaired if a cell were to fail.

    moved 🙂

    only available on facelift models in the UK.

    No, iPhone doesn't support MirrorLink. The Lexus system supports iPod controls so you get audio control of your iPhone but you cannot mirror the screen.

    Excellent result 🙂 IMO the RC or more likely to the tracked than the GS so I don't understand their reasoning for not allowing this TSB for the GS 😞
  14. ColinBarber
    Yes you are correct. They must have change that at some point. I've just taken out the extended warranty on mine, will take a look at my policy when I receive it.

    Specs vary country to country. The UK Premier has full leather. Not sure about Japan models, they possibly have the option to have it or not.
