  1. i have tried led bulbs for the reversing lights in another car and they weren't good

    the bulb was std indicator bulb p21w and i replaced it for a 68smd led bulb

    the reverse light looked good illuminated nice and bright and white

    but it didn't project the light far enough back so i reverted back to the std bulb.

    Thanks, that's worth knowing. I'll hopefully be able to adjust the camera as above.

  2. Hello all

    I've had a seatch but can't seem to find a suitable bulb or set to replace the reversing lights on my 2011 CT200h. I want to improve the rear visibility via the reversing camera at night, so is that the number plate bulbs or the "actual" reversing lights? Does anyone have some nice and easy replacement options?

    Thanks in advance

  3. I've now had a CT200H for 6 months and have done around 5000 miles, I seem to get around 40 mpg which is a lot less than the published figures, this is mainly short trips of 5 miles or so, on motorways I get around 48 mpg.

    One thing I have also noticed is the accuracy of the fuel tank gauge and range display.

    I have just run the car to 0 miles range and then a further 5 miles before filling up, the fuel gauge was empty and the warning light was on for 20 miles or so. I managed to get 35 litres in to fill the car up, I'd covered 302 miles since the last top up.

    This means the tank shows empty when it has 10 litres left, around a quarter of a tank, and shows 0 miles range when it should go a further 90 miles, assuming 40 mpg.

    Based on the 45 litre tank it should have a range of 400 to 500 miles.

    Is this a common problem?

    Mine is a 61 plate that has done around 15k now. I've had it for around 4 months and have acersged just under 54 mpg on mixed use with the last few tanks at 58 mpg in this better weather. I do try and drive for economy though. The readout on the dash is about 5-7% optimistic in my opinion, the figures above are calculated.

  4. Reecey, apologies, yes I was missing your point. I can't think why as few as 30k miles should see a 10% reduction in fuel efficiency. Assuming that there are no other variables (maybe a change in fuel?) then it might be worth a trip to Lexus. I suppose the fear is that the Battery is working less efficiently.

  5. I've only managed to put two tankfulls through my F sport, calculated at 53.86 and 54.22 mpg. I expect that when the warmer weather comes 60mpg will be achievable. Perhaps the OP could adapt a difference driving style?

  6. Hi

    I've recently picked up a 61 plate F-Sport with Nav, and note that the manual mentions recording CDs to the HDD, however there's not "HDD" tab on the Audio menu, and there was no "record" option when I put in a CD yesterday. Is this something that only the Mark Levinson stereos have please?

    Thanks
