  1. Cannot remember if it changes colour. I thought the symbol comes on when it has a signal and off when it doesn't. Make sure you don't have anything on the rear shelf as the aerial is there and you will restrict the signal. What version of CD do you have?
  2. Hi Pete, You may want to ask your question on the US rather than UK forums. In the UK Lexus have extended the warranty on the CD player due to problems. Not sure about in the US or even if it uses the same unit. http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/
  3. wrong bore as well
  4. What happens when you try to start it? Does the engine turn over?
  5. No you cannot do this on an IS200. You need and OBD-II scan tool to see any stored error codes. The Altezza still has the old system because it isn't exported to other countries that require OBD-II to be fitted.
  6. Where? There was only one set on ebay and that was stopped.
  7. not sure abt that! Wouldnt be surprised if it has been modified! Probably the mods that are causing high emissions rather than a fault O2 sensor. Also make sure the air filter and MAF sensor are clean.
  8. This is for all the auto transmissions used in Lexus models. There are warning notices about this within the owners manuals. Others oils can also damage the seals within the gearbox.
  9. Mods on GSs are rare. Not much available for the series I and series II owners, in this country, tend to be the type of people not to mod.
  10. His username is jdmparts_guru Send him a PM. He should be able to save you lots of money compared to UK prices.
  11. Get a sport. The new ones (when they become available) will have the LE wheels and full leather. If you like the colour of the LE have a look at the new standard IS colour Antimony, looks similar.
  12. Both TOC and LOC will be there so you can switch allegiance throughout the day ;)
  13. Had a look on the web. You can get the switch in the US for around $10. Retail is $26-30. http://data.autopartsgo.com/parts/online/w...autopartsgo.com Lets hope it is just the switch and not actually low oil pressure, maybe you should get it tested.
  14. The pressure switch is on the left hand side of the block at the front.
  15. Lexus dealers do seem keen to replace brake discs. Do they actually need replacing? Is the water pump leaking or just have a bit of old coolant around it - some leak a little and then are fine.
  16. You can buy the discs and pads and fit them yourself. That will save you some money.
  17. What happens if you open the door by reaching in through the window rather than using the key?
  18. Friends have them. Backup lots of their games so you don't have to use any discs, they have movies on them, stream movies from the PC, have 100's on MP3s etc.
  19. I see a 840 now and again. Still look nice. Not sure about the handling though.
