But can only rotate the wheels if like it says all wheels are same size but my fronts are 225 and rears 245.

Thank you

I have come to the same conclusion that the tyres are rubbing hence worn on the insides.

Cheers

All possible causes checked by friend mechanic nothing is amiss 

So only obvious issue is wheels which are worn on the outsides is only contributing factor not going to replace them as tyres are still legal ie well above 1.6mm on centre 3/4 of tyre

Hi

Thank you for your reply.

I have only just experienced this over the last month. Further internet searches LED to a possible issue. I had brake pads and discs replaced around the time this started and I have read on other sites that the back plate had been pushed inwards by something and touching disc on full lock

Will check this out if it it could be this in morning.

Hi

I am experiencing a grinding rubbing noise when moving forward or reverse at low speed in full lock on.my 2007 lexus is 220d

Has anyone experienced this problem and had a resolution to this issue please

Thank you as always

Hi I own a lexus is230d se-l 2007 model

Recently my front sensors are not bleeping and nor are they showing in lexus park assist screen 

Only rear are showing

The green park assist light is on

It is fully loaded model so it does have front sensors as I have used them to get close to front wall of house before for parking

Any ideas guys

Thanks as always

If you disconnect the MAF the ECU will default to a predetermined "average" setting. Drive the car and see if there is any improvement. If there is, this points to your MAF being faulty or dirty. If there is no improvement in the way the car drives you can rule out the MAF.

Hope this helps.

Thanks Beamish

i will try that

thanks

Egr was cleaned a fortnight ago as part of the service

dpf is not the issue I know that definitely 

how can you tell if mad sensor is faulty I have no warnings or codes on diagnostic machine

dontvwant to pay over the odds at garage if it’s not faulty

Hi

it's around 2000 rpm

in gears 2/3&4 virtually

maf saensor was cleaned and egr 

Something new Colin

did a full service but didn’t change the fuel filter not sure if this can contribute to the problem

its been happening past 3/4 months

Hi guys

looking for advice

i have Lexus IS 220d SEL

when accelerating I notice the car hesitates for a second 

any ideas?

As always thanks for the responses

excellent owners site

What’s it like in this weather 

Hi 

thinking of changing my is 220 d to is300h

what do owners think of their is 300h

thanks

Yeah the pipes had frozen just got to let them thaw when weather improved which they did

low and behold it’s happened again along with water tank frozen

Thanks all I will try to warm it up and see what may be

I previously noted that there is a button inside for headlight washing but it never worked so I assumed it was a dummy

even now cover is open it’s not discarding any water so may be faulty as it’s never worked before

guess I’ll pop down to local Lexus dealer for advice and see what they say

no doubt another expense coming soon after someone hit the car other day and left no note to admit it. £200 repair cost to bumper and now this

Thanks Nemesis

my model does not have headlight washing facility I guess this is just a dummy cover then

any ideas why it won’t close?

thanks

Hi can anyone tell me what these covers are for?

came to the car today after all the snow has cleared and found this cover open and it will not close

i have attached a photo

thanks in advance for yet again the support

Or Amayama.com.

hi Steve

you have used these before and they are reliable?

hi Ahmedali

i am toying around with the idea that maybe the dpf pressure unit could be at fault rather than dpf itself and maybe just maybe the unit is reading pressure wrong and not allowing regen, im just biting at different ideas at moment. i have very little knowledge of cars mechanically but just a thought mechanic put inn my head

hi

do you guys use a certain retailer to get parts. i am looking for a dpf pressure unit part number 89480-53010

wonder if there are any particular cheap retailers you use?

thanks as always

kully

yes so i read. definitely not doing removal but look for a reputable cleaning company but gain cost vary drastically from a local company who can clean dpf with heat for £110 assuming i remove the dpf for them which will cost £70 from local garage to remove and refit

other companies clean using chemicals and charge £400

but not sure which will give better results in long term

thanks normski

so many different solutions out there it confuses me which option to go for

i want a definite tried and tested solution failing that getting rid of my lovely is 220d se-L for is250 pity as i love the car with all its gadgets

how long ago did you have yours done now and what did they do dpf removal?

Hi

I have had the engine management light check vsc and traction control light

leading up to this car was a little sluggish in lower gears.

had diagnostics ascertain the fault to be p2002

can anyone tell me what to do as i have had many differing instructions

i have tried forced regeneration but am told build up too much to force

have cleaned egr valve

ha anyone had this exact issue correctly rectified

have heard of dpf removal but not really sure i want to do that as may sell at some point to IS 250 to rid of diesel issue with dpf

i am in Wolverhampton anyone local who has had the same problem and can point me in right direction would be bonus.

i have read of following

dpf removal

cleaning by jet wash

cleaning by oven heat

and terraclean

so many options not sure which to go for which will definatel solve my problem.

many thanks

kully
