Richard I saw the the Video that is what happend to me exactly, its the battery I bought my car 3 years ago from tunbridge wells I live in yorkshire the car had been on the forecourt 3 months I picked the car up on the saturday and the car never moved till Monday. Thats when i had the sound Tunbridge wells where ok the contacted Lexus Hull and told me to take it there and they would fit it. The fitter told me that clicking is the relay that as not got enough voltage to set the startup proccedure in motion I have not had a problem since as John as remarked those batteries last a long time if they are kept charged but if you let them run down they will fail and let you down. Just one point have you checked that the Battery conections are clean and tight.

Hazel Have a look under your waterpump and see if you can See any Pink crud under the Pump my MK3 a few years ago Had exact same problem and it was the water pump leaking I dont think your Head Gasket as gone. You may need one of those small mirror type Pens to see it but i will wager its that I had 2 mk3s from 2010 to 2013 and i had to change both pumps (well lexus did) but they changed design after MY 2010 If you look on the US site its full of Problems with water pumps on the Mk 3 Robert

DAB Plus
KayCee replied to RogerP's topic in Lexus GS 300 / Lexus GS 250 / Lexus GS 430 / Lexus 450h / Lexus GS 460 Club
Roger I do believe your Radio is DAB + but are you aware people seem to be going off DAB and is not as popular as it once was. Also they (The Broadcasters) have dropped Traffic Anouncements (TA) and as you may have noticed there are lots of Dead Spots because the promise of More Ariels around the country as failed to be implemented. I used to rely on TA but if i need it now i have to drop back to FM. It would be interesting to know what other members think of this. If you google DAB it will tell you about this HTH Robert -
Hi All Is there a voice Command update as My Gs450 mk4 2018 as only Play Artist Play Album Go Home my previous 2010 450 SE L had loads of voice commands granted some of them needed saying a few times or it didnt understand my Yorkshire accent but they worked eventually The American models also have a Plethora of commands So why not ours I did wonder if there was a setting in Techstream to Initiate it. Any Ideas ?? Thanks Robert

Hi Sherlock Yes the lever that controls the Recirc as Broken and if you looked at it in the Fresh air Mode and the slightest touch to move it will result in it breaking. Someone as tried to move it without putting it in Recirc Mode which results in it breaking if you look around the passenger kick panel area you will will fiind the broken lever A few years ago when i Had my 2010 Gs mine was broke not by me i might add i got it changed at Sheffield for £50 approx i suspect it will be more now but there is a repair kit for it

Hi all Got a GS450h 2018 as anyone had any success with the voice control mine is limited to, play Song ,Play Artist. Dial Number and thats about it but most of time(must be my Yorkshire accent ) does not understand me at all. My previous Mk 3 could do allsorts Radio,CD, Increase Heating Lower Heating Navigate to ??? but this one is very limited. I know the latest ones are ok as i had a NX Loner on my last service and was like my earlier car. Can the software be updated or does is it need to be initiated as i cannot find any thing in the online manual except Voice training but i do not have that option on car Thanks
