Welcome to LOC Chris

there's a locksmith i use (b'ham city center) that cut and supply Lexus key fob case or supply by customer.

very nice gentlemen, did ask him why some locksmith don't do uncut key fob supply by customer especially bought from fleabay .. he just answer "bcos it might damaged their machines router bit wouldn't take any risk or they just don't have the proper cutting machines"

it's always a risk gamble buying a cheap car unless buying a brand new with no fault to worry about.

his site is dedicated to all driver who bought the same model. thank god there's always someone here to help

do a proper research on the car model you after... what to look for and what need to be aware of .. just walk out if u think it's not the right one...

when i bought mine 4years ago i remember the seller told me it had belt changed, ball joints etc etc... and even he let me knock off £200 without asking any question BUT with one condition "sold as it is, no warranty what so ever" ... to be fair they got the car from part exchanged n just wanna clear some space.

always telling myself that i bought my first lexus for under 1k shud need proper check. finally got everything done just a full service ,new belt and arm bushed replace.

3 years on with flying color on MOT test

best is to know a garage that let u stand and watch what they doing. ideally if your the diy type u might learn few things or so

don't jump into conclusion if the car sick. patience n i'm sure someone will come up with solution the same issue you had or might be an easy fix.

all the best to you

good to know you've booked in to have the belt done

best to take it easy not pushing the rev hard until the belt done

welcome Matt

there's one meet tomorrow in Bristol

welcome Gavin

Sorry Edward my apology to you that ended have to spent the extra to find the fault you had.

didn't know the by-pass cable would cause this beside the two joint yellow cable.

bought two double din stereo and the first one had issue with the pcb (that's why my suspect on the stereo fault) and the second one spot on but end up in total fund i could buy a brand new decent double din .

added two extra cable on mine by-pass cable to make the "light dim" when headlight turn on to work.

easy swap for a new cable if you handy on the soldering ion kit

wish you luck

your best bet is to borrow another aftermarket stereo and test it :hocus-pokus: to make sure...

brand new pioneer avh 4400bt? possible faulty

I think you misunderstand me. He is not my boss. I'm just a buyer of YAHOO auction and the gear works well now. Of course I will be glad to post for you. But there are some things I need you to be sure.

1 Is it you need exactly?(and the price)

2 It will wait a long time to buy it and mail to you.

3 Do you know the way to replace it ?(no offence.for saving money,Taiwan mechanics are pretty handy. )

4 I don't know the process to mail a package to UK.

these I'm worry about.

Hope it's helpful to you.

opps! sorry.. i know usually in asia country people call the seller/buyer as "boss" B)

no worry about my previous question as it's too hassle for you. :P

thanks

I would be interested asking your boss to make few more and have it post here in UK.. off course you'll be the middle man

would be a great potential having this (metal better than plastic) i'm sure lexus use the same little mechanism to others model

Hi Mat

Not sure about Honda

have few friends using this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300950689156?ssPageName=STRK:MESINDXX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1436.l2648

you could post up video for us to get a clear picture of what your car problem is...

i know a lot experience "master sifu" here to help

Hi Shaun

Not know much about car but i think you should have the timing belt fix.

best to have a timing kit install as you say there's "a lot of debris from the belt" (usually the tension has gone and the belt is grinding the cover somewhere)

it would be a major big job if the belt snap

these mine when the seller told it has been changed :arrrggg-matey:

good luck

Welcome AJ

Not really sure on setting up the alarm as myself only knew by setting off the alarm is when the door open or movement in the front passenger (sensor on the center map light) :eerrrmm: i might be wrong..

always tell myself not to compare these gadget to current as it's a 10years model... use rain-x solution product or good old fashion Glass Cleaner Rubber Wiper at £1land would do a pretty nice job :P (rear window screen)

give it a good service and maintain it well, everything will be spot on

don't be shy to ask any question or browse around

welcome :zee:

i got the same problem before.(motor running but highting not work)

it's one plastic-gear has worn down.all you need is just replace it in bronze-one.then you won't be worry it again as i am.

Thanks for the share link Keven

not to worry about communication ... only just having trouble finding the parts

welcome to the club :zee:

I didn't want to post the results until I'd had a drive but they are encouraging. I cleaned the filter up to an acceptable state. Not perfect at all (I've ordered a new one from Lexus, only £4.50). I've driven the car for the last few days and it's been like a different car. Still smokes a little but no misfires yet. I've bought an air filter, oil and oil filter and I'm going to change all that this week, but it's looking good so far.

Many thanks to all who helped. I may have just cut my losses and sold it for spares if I'd listened to the garage.

do you have the part number since reading this i would wanna changed mine too

sorry for what happen to you car :megaangry: :megaangry:

those cowards dumb people just don't have nothing to do then ****** others off just to have a laugh ...

i've keyed, food thrash, dent... worse part had my window smash because "we're in their spot"

we never catch those *****...

theres a aero alloy for grab on fleabay....

i personaly would go for the gtr alloy ..looks :devil: awesome

apply few more layer of the paint, clean n wax ( apply clear laquer paint ) would looks like a £100 job
