  1. Thanks everyone but I don't know where the auto fold button is, didn't know it had one. Don't keep me in suspense< where is this magic button
  2. I have a 2013 RX450h. My outside wing mirrors have suddenly stopped folding when locking. Is there a reset button because I have checked the fuses and they appear to be ok. HELP
  3. Hi everyone. managed to get the correct items from Lexus accessories in Swindon. Lexus at Reading sent me a graph of the relevant parts with part numbers, unfortunately they were wrong and the parts department at Swindon put the right ones in. It was quite straight forward because as said the arch covers are very pliable. One down, one to go!!! the CD player has swallowed one of my CDs. It will not play it but I can load a second one and it plays it. Annoyed because the lost one is the sound track from Gladiator. I have checked the user manual but it seems to show a different layout and I can't select CD. Any ideas how to get the disc out? if I can i will copy it to memory stick and avoid the CD player. Any suggestions accepted.
  4. Yes sounds sensible, I suppose it is a case of suck it and see. What could possibly go wrong? Did watch a YouTube from some fellar in the USofA, anything they can do we can do better, except golf Thanks
  5. managed to get the correct replacement for my 450h from Lexus supplies at Swindon. They corrected the part number that Lexus have on the diagram so good firm. It looks like I will have to undo the one in situ to be able to fit the new one. My question is, has anyone done this and if yes any tips would be gratefully accepted, don't want to do any damage.
  6. Yes that's right. OK I will go to Lexus if I can find someone interested in such a minor sale. China did cost much so if they are wrong no loss. Thanks
  7. Thanks but not the same, the one's on my car secure the arch liner to the front bumper/wing and are a squarish shape slightly tapered. Ordered what I think are the same (from china) due in October. Update then. Thanks again
  8. OK, I understand leaving it on is best but it drain fuel when I might just need a short burst of warm air. I will however accept the advice to leave it on. It was straight forward on my 2004 Lexus RX300, just press a button. Thanks guys for knowledge. Stay safe
  9. Tried to read the RX450h user manual, so much information but not what I would like to know. Can you run the heater without it being in Air Con.
  10. I have just discovered that one of the retaining clips securing the wheel arch cover and bumper is missing. Goggled it find some that look right but says for Toyota fender???. Anyone got a photo of the right one or a link. eBay has some (packs of 10 or 20) but doesn't say for Lexus 450h.
  11. Thanks Herbie, I thought for a moment I had a problem. Just part exchanged my 2004 Lexus RX300 with no problems and I know how expensive one of these cars can be and how they "Fail" the MOT. Clever . Thanks again Regards
  12. Just bought a wonderful 2013 RX450h Luxury. When I did the test drive I didn't notice this light, it could have been aluminate but where it is is not very noticeable. The light says "Passenger Air Bag on" is this a fault or normal, the passenger seat is unoccupied.
  13. OK! update. I received the used replacement rear light for my Lexus RX300 and a good point was it still had the bulb and fittings in so i could practice removing them. I gave to be honest I was not looking forward to this job. I started off removing the panel in the back of the car but struggled to remove the bulb fittings, especially the one right out of sight, didn't have enough strength in my fingers to turn it. Eventually got them all out and started to release the 3 nuts only to find 2 were 6MM and 10mm so more aggro. I think Lexus made this job very difficult on purpose so they can charge a fortune for doing it. So with a small spanner, because a socket was not possible on 2 of the nuts I managed to get them off without dropping any. Replacing was a little easier because of lessons learnt but still very difficult because of needing to get the nuts tight enough. So after a few cut knuckles finally back inn now all I needed was to find it didn't work, because it is impossible to connect up before fitting. Eureka, all works. If I am ever faced with this job again I will scrap the car instead. Used light in great condition, good value at £65, still not sure how one would exchange the circuit board though. Any way thanks everyone for your help and encouragement. Stay safe
  14. OK guys here is a picture of the one on eBay, claims it is for the 2003/4 RX300. Good clean lens undamaged, bit ropy inside. It's green part that might be a circuit board. What do you think. I have made an offer but will not decide until you give the OK.
