John I would forward the letter onto your insurance to confirm they have said it you never know they can be slippery but im sure it is above board though

phew john not as bad as it looks i had a Omega that got clouted in a multi story headlight and front wing insurance gave me 3 k and option to buy back for a grand i got it done by a local body shop and was in pocket for 1200

yes how often do we have pouring rain on the motorway water is splashing up all the time i too wondered how this could happen they will be telling us not to go out in the rain next I wondered if it had got into the boot and shorted batterys

Wow John really feel for you if its only the door wouldnt a indi do it for you (body specialist)

if you have seen sticky residue i suspect a weight as come off throwing out of balance

Chris Just as a matter of intrest which fusedid you use as i noticed yours is a 250 and mine is a 450h

Chris YW also there is a 10mm screw just near the fuse box use that for the earth

Chris Use the one under the passenger side if you have a piggy back fuse use the wiper fuse then feed it up pass side then over head lining to the left of the mirror pretty easy job HTH Robert

As anyone tried to connect to the portal on the mk4 GS450 i have tried but to no avail but i am not sure if it is worthwhile but i did try being as it said it had the feature. I did register with the portal and can get all the history of the car etc and other bits of info but cant register it with the car i am useing iphone 7 Robert

Thanks for That John i have sent for one Much obliged THanks for that Rich i do know Russell at Montys he is a true gent he did give me the part number but quoted 30 plus vat and said Toyota may not have same part number so would have to cross reference But thanks again I am infinatley obliged Robert

Maybe the Handbrake may need to be adjusted it may be at the limit of its travel

thanks for that john i did try to find one but it only came up with 300h i might have to bite bullet and get one from Sheffield or i could see if my local Toyota have a equivalant as its only 10 mins away as sheffield is 30 ml from Doncaster Robert

Hi all Had a look at my pollen Filter and was full of Leaves and Flys etc I thought These were checked on Service which i had done in September at Sheffield. I may change it myself are the ones on ebay ok, or is it a dealer only item i think they are aboy 30 Quid from lexus anyone got any ideas Thanks

can the firmware be updated ?

well done Paul glad you have sorted it

when i go to my daughters at welton hull its says wetton

Adam that was my exact reaction i picked the car uo from Sidcup and drove the 200 miles to doncaster and when i got out i was stiff as a board i had been tryinmg to adjust seat all way home to no avail the headrest was shoving my neck forward I stopped at a service area and tried to shove headrest back but wouldnt move. so i thought i have dropped a clanger here. I had a good look round at home then a couple of days later i dound the the upper back switch and voilla that was it / It is now very comfy indeed Robert

its for rewinding the station you are on press button then turn the file/album button on the radio to the left and it will rewind the station i,e You didnt quite catch the news so you just rewind it mind you have to have been on that station a while HTH Robert

yes I i totaly agree with you but i just make the Album Name Bob Dylan Live 1 and Live 2 but we get there in the end and i too am a fan of Dylan i caught the bug from my son. who is dylan mad. thanks for your reply mate its much appreciated Robert

Another tip that may be useful if you transfer the MP3 files to yr Disc or Memory stick they do not go on in the same order as the original disc. There is a way round this to make them same as disc Download a free program called drivesort .exe and this small program will sort them for you . It as to be run on the disc /memory stick after you have transfered them to the memory stick. The program resides on your main Drive Hope this helps Robert

Thats seems the only downside mine doesnt understand me Must be my broad Yorkshire

"For example, when playing some music off the USB stick and deciding that I want to listen to a different artist I must take the following steps: Select right-hand screen, select music panel, send music panel to left-hand screen, select browse, select artist, select letter group (or scroll list), select artist, select album. If partway through that process I come to a road junction or whatever that requires my full attention then if I do not return to it quickly enough it will time out and I must start again. " On Mine if i give file button a 1 2 second press it will go to the next album a short tap will change track wether its on the side display or the main display and this takes no time whatsoever. Not sure how to do the Quote

Nic yes totaly agree this is my third lexus and they have all been great but this one is the pinnacle it is subtle and not imposing i am loving mine and i feel very confident in it (mustbe the snob in me) but seriously i cant sing its praises too much Robert

Hi all Well i have had the Mk 4 450h for four months now and it is growing on me every day when i first got it i was dissapointed with the headrest position but found out that the headrest adjusts with the top part of the seat so that was soon resolved. The car runs superb i dont think its got quite the poke that my ex 450 SE L had but it is more than adequate it will soon whisk you to 100 in no time. I like the way you can go to sport mode and changes the battery monitor to a rev counter and in sport mode simulates actual gear changes but i mostly keep it in the normal mode anyway. The fuel consumption is ok as well mind anyone who buys a 3.5 must know its going to use fuel i dont usually bother with the figures but my last 450 averaged about 35 ish but this one is returning 43 on a regular basis but i dont boot it ( well not often ). One thing that did disapoint initially was the cd player its only one slot it as USB and bluetooth and i have managed to put my libary on 2 USB sticks so that is now resolved it shows all files and folders as the old 450 had HDD 6 CD USB Bluetooth and when i think about it it was overkill really as if you put in a new CD it asked if you wanted to transfer to HDD. The initial startup of the display is a little slow but acceptable ( I bet the facelift addressed that) the sat nav seems slightly better but contary to others found it quite acceptable but dildnt get the Connect system to work through the internet but not bothered about that. I also found that the handling is slightly better i went round a bend few weeks ago (didnt know the road) was a little too fast but went round like it was on rails was pleased at that it as Dunlop sports on. The mouse thingy was a little fiddly first of but i am completetly used to it now but music options can be used with steering wheel any way. I found that the Heater Controls and lights are a bit small could have done with that panel being angled up a bit but not too much of a problem. The HDU is a nice touch and the Blind spot monitering and Cross traffic alert is brilliant So in conclusion anyone changing up from a Mk3 will not be disappointed Robert

thanks for that john but my are they expensive robert
