Thank u, uve answered mybquestion

Hi every1

How many miles do you get from a lexus is250. For e.g 300 miles from a full tank of petrol

Please can you mention if it was town driving or motorway miles.

Thank u

thanks for your comments.

I just realised something, if you go on auto trader you dont see soooooooooo many used is220D or is250 up for sale compared to other cars so hopefully thats a good sign that people like to hang on to their lexus!!!!!!

Yeah you certainly put my mind at rest, thank you. Hopefully more diesiel owners will leave their experience

Hi,

I am looking to buy a used lexus is220D between 50,000 to 80,000 mileage in a few months, maybe a SE-L, as i want leather seats, and sat nav screen and the speakers would be nice

This is the 2nd forum i joined, 1st was a civic forum as i had my eyes on a diesiel civic, I got abit put off with the civic 2.2 ctdi has forum members was complaining sooooo much about it (Clutch going,Fly wheel,squeeky noises and many more to list)

Now i want a used lexus is220D and ive been reading alot of bad comments on the diesiel. (Head gasket failure, Poor MPG etc)

Q 1.) Could i just assume that their unlucky?? and 95% IS220D are fine with no problems. And it also came to my mind people that sign up to forums and generally here to complain/solve problems about their car. would you agree with me???

Q.2) Does all Lexus Is200D have the smart key where you just walk up to the car and open the door??? or a certain grade/trim

Q.3) say in the morning the outside temperture is 5-8 C, how long do you keep your car running to warm it up?? say 5mins running, 5mins slow driving would the heaters blow warm air???

Q.4) Generally is the IS220D a smooth comfortable/quiet ride on the road

I would really really really appreciate it if many forum members could reply to this post, also peope that actually own a lexus is220.

Thank you so much and have a happy new year

Regards,

Mo
