  1. there is NO good places in Cambridge.....................bloody dull place
  2. virtually impossible.got to remove half engine before you get to these gaskets.
  3. Mk 1 GS 300 is every 60k or every 6 years, whichever is soonest. Not sure on Mk 2. A quick phone call to any Lexus dealer would be quickest way to find out if you don't have an owners manual. I have just changed mine (that crank pulley was pig to undo) and it had done 95,000 miles. It was in perfect condition - could have gone a lot longer. The tensioner pulley was fine . Small amount of play but smooth running) perfect condition after 95k miles?????????????// get yourself magnifieng glass and have aproper look between the teeth./////////////////////////////////////// 3yrs/40000miles cambelt change interval reccomended by toyota in japan for japanese customers.think about it........
  4. if you've been caught doing over100mp/h you'll lose your licence automatically ............. think about it....
  5. getting parts for 1999 ls400 is nightmare.soon you'll need exhaust and/or cats[cost you fortune].make sure cambelt has been changed ,otherwise put aside £1500 for replacement engine.car doing just 18mpg on average but can do up to 30mpg on motorways.obviously your car has been neglected if you getting suspension noises.
  6. 3party only will cost you about £200 if you know how to buy policy online
  7. what wastegate??????????????????? who told you that?........it'll blow headgasket and/or turbo
  8. Everyone who comments on my MKIII remarks as to how quiet the engine sounds and, when I tell them its done 188k, they are gobsmacked. Camping at silverstone over the weekend, i had started the engine on my LS400 to charge my phone and make sure i didn't discharge the battery doing it, i then moved the car to in front of the tent about 20 mins later my wife asked from in the tent if i wanted the jump leads to start the car, I replied "what the one thats runnign 6 feet from you?" she was very surpised she couldn't hear it, it's done 229k now as well, again a mk3 1995. I'd still have a mk4 though :) hows your phone will discharge car battery? u barkin mate...
  9. for £5-6k you'll get catD insurance writeoff even if you promise to give car a good home[what a load of nonsence]
  10. wats the difference between electric and auto?its a same thing.
  11. £1300 for lpg conversion?thats a rip-off mate.actual kit costs only£250 and 2hrs labour
  12. I know you were talking to the other poster but I was going to say I use SNOW mode on my IS200 Auto and my GS300 because it makes the throttle response less peaky when pulling away and accelerating. On the motorway I use cruise control anyway so SNOW or ECT PWR modes make no real difference to my driving. When I did use injector cleaner, it was Redex from Halfords. in SNOW MODE your car will start from 3rd gear.never heared of it?
  13. folding mirrors?how long you've been driving cars?
  14. lexus with LPG?Try toyota prius and save planet
  15. Hi and welcome. As Malc says, there are threads on here. Just use the search facility at the bottom left. Use exhaust as a term but use others too, flanges, cats etc. There are no pattern parts available, so nipping down to Kwikfit is a waste of time. I very much doubt you will need a whole system and If you do, Lexus would want a very large sum. The options are to find a sound used system/part system to replace the flanges and the odd other bit buy a new one - if you can find/afford 1 have a specialist make a system/part system. See the older threads and then come back here. kwik-fit?you're barkin mate
  16. PM me your chassis number and the parts you require and I will tell you if they are still available :) and how much. parts still available but dodgy dealers will rip you off.......
  17. tesco petrol will aventually clogg the bloody whole fuel system....................2]all lexuses desighned to work on 98 ron unleded petrol,using 95RON will reset crank sensor to low wich will result on 20% less horses your engine produce on 98RON.sadly 98RON not avail. in this dumb country[u.k.]. only 97ron wich called here super unleded.
