  1. This does sound normal. The 'slipping' is just the CVT transmission which makes the engine rev at the max bhp and stay there. The hesitation is difficult to tell if it is normal or not. Normally when cruising you do get a delay whilst the engine revs up, when you are going slowly the electric motors give you instant acceleration whilst the engine gets up to speed however at higher speeds the electric motors aren't effective. Thanks very much for your reply.
  2. I know this as probably been asked before, but I am new to the RX400h. Can the car change how it responds? Eg. When I bough the car about 6 weeks ago it seemed that when traveling around 30-40 mph and I floored the throttle the car would just go. Also when accelerating it seemed the noise/rpm of the engine seemed to match the speed of the car Now though when traveling at 30-40 mph and I push the throttle down hard there is a delay/hesitation before it accelerates, this also seems two happen around 60-70 mph. Also when just pottering around and I push the accelerated the engine seems to rev much higher than the car is accelerating, sort of like a clutch slipping. I have taken the car to Lexus and they said there are no errors and can't really fault the car. So can anyone tell me is this just normal, was it just I was new to at the car and now I am getting used to it, or is there a way to change it's behavior? Thanks in advance
