  1. classic symptom of failing 12v battery change the battery Dougie or it will let you down in the worse place you could imagine it will be sods law
  2. Sergio re the auto dipping mirrors it may have been reset So Put the car in reverse hold it on the brake set each mirror to the position you would like then take the car out of reverse and the mirrors will go to the Position before you adjusted them As in your normal driving position as to thephone book you need a iphone as i too had a 55 reg many years ago and i could not get the phone contacts to go over i think you have to do them one at a time which is a b*** ache but i am sure there is another way some one will pop up Colin I would suspect HTH Robert
  3. Totaly agree with Linas its due to the wide steering angle have you noticed you can usually do a full turn in the road just like you see on yank films i love it. the bump on full lock is of no concern
  4. Kijan Must say i had Potenzas on my mk4 that i bought in Februay and they were horrendously Loud they held road ok but the Noise was Horrible
  5. Mark I do believe they are differnt frequency and it wont work I may be wrong and you may be able to reprogram but i doubt it
  6. Adam As john said my old 2014 GS450 you have to take a pic of your Sat nav with the ID showing then they give link to download maps put these on a 64 gb USB and put it in car but it takes about an hour to complete. I am lucky mine is a SD card I also may be in a minority but i find the sat nav just fine admitedly its not intuitive but once you get it in your head i cant fault it never as it let me down and if you subscribe to Lexus connect you can make your routes on there and download to car must have data though
  7. sound advice John i didnt think you would be Long but i think the reality will be a long job there will be more hoops to jump through
  8. Phil is correct if the battery is allowed to run down then recharged it will lose a bit of its capacity I know its happened to me twice after buying Lexus after they have been stood on dealers forecourt. I complained straight away and i got mine replaced by Lexus and arranged with Lexus Hull to fit it. You can get them from Lexus Parts Direct for around 200 but a Toyota dealer can maybe get you one for around 140 as Phil said but the batteries are a funny size and you will find it difficult to find a Battery that will fit it can be done chopping a bit of the Battery case but i would not reccomend that. Bite the bullet and get one from LexusPartsDirect save all the grief the colder it gets the worse it will be Just my 2 pennorth Robert
  9. Lexy this as happened to me on 2 occasions on purchase of new models if these cars with this type of battery are left to go flat they will let you down. when i got mine from Tonbridge wells I specifally asked if the battery had been changed as it had been stood for a few months they said the battery is ok it checked out ok with our tester when i got it home on the saturday was ok after 200 ml journey didnt use it on Sunday Monday morning wouldnt start i got in touch with Tonbridge and they arranged to have the battery changed at Hull. I got it jumped as it was showing 11.2 volts had run and was showing 12.6 man at battery depot Said its ok now 2days later flat again. You can get a cerc charger and recon it or get the battery changed the latter best option they are 200 notes but peice of mind for that we now got colder weather it will let you down again Advice Change Battery Robert
  10. i am also smug with my 18 gs it makes you wonder why they stopped making them i allways say the GS stands for Guarded Secret
  11. I wouldnt have thought so Kalpesh you will just have to transfer your Lights Sensors etc as you will have the bolts and clips if a body shop does it they will have a body clip removal tool I dont know costs down south but you should get the new bumper painted for no more than 200 and the fitting cover is 10 min job 5 bollts i believe and a few clips the claws are on the bumper itself but i am sure someone will pipe up exactly how many bolts in conclusion you want one of those lockable posts on your drive if they do that regulary its so maddening people using your drive to turn round in Robert
  12. I too like the Lexus Sat Nav granted its not as intuitive as other systems but mine as never let me down and mine updates with a SD card if it is post 2015 its under a flap on the ML motif. I am also with Lexus connect and can input route into phone and it transfers to car over wi fi or bluetooth and i love it it costs nothing if you on data plan with your phone i am on iphone if you get all the settings correct i think it is a good system my daughter who as rx450 2019 thinks its a crap system but she uses it in the default mode says she hates it when it takes her off motorway then back on. i think the problem sometimes people follow them blindly instead of sometimes ignoring what you suspect is wrong. just my two pence
  13. what a bummer Kalpesh you would think they would have the decency to leave their address the cheek of it using your prperty to turn round and smacking your car into the bargain grrr it makes me so mad. But if you can get it pulled out all ok but new they are only 200 ish from Lexus parts direct for the bumper cover obviosly have to be painted Anyway mate i wish you luck getting it sorted and i am sure you will Robert
  14. As John said there are various options in the set up to disable /Enable route detour its is there if you look in the options not sure which one off top of head but its there,
  15. Yes they do say that at £9 a battery they can be bought for 50p you may have a small problem with the fob maybe wants cleaning or the battery you bought was out of date
  16. I have always used Sheffield for my servicing but due to a domstic problem I am at my daughters in Brough near Hull so i have arranged my inerrim service at Hull was shocked at the price £350 im sure it wasnt that dear at sheffield i Thoight obviously Wrngly that it was fixed prices throughout the Network The gent did say something about the Warranty now when you get a service you get a years warranty something called Relax or Reflex something like that As anyone and a similar Experience on this Thanks Robert
  17. I have used this method several times on mine and my daughters, and found it quicker than setting up techstream thats was why i used that method and never failed once I did set it to 5 but i thought it was just a bit too long so reverted back to 3 but my daughter loves it at 5
