I'm replacing the 2 front calipers and discs+pads only have the car a month "2nd is200" ;) but the car had been lying up for a year and a half , was only getting about 15mpg was the giveaway seems to be a common problem with all the whole range of lexus having brake sticking issues good luck with the fix Lee

Yeah @ these prices the sticking caliper/pistons maybe an issue of the past why bother rebuilding them ? ;)

Quick update almost a year later and the hids are still going strong

Have had them in 3 different cars and without any issue s whatsoever.

so I guess you do always get what you pay for .

The hids4u ballasts take about 3 Seconds or less to get up 2 temperature with no flickering or shorts ;)

Hi I know its an old post but you can get re manufactured ones on eBay for £47.50 delivered ;)

http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=231133233667

whats that link? they the ones you originally bought or the ones you ended up buying? they got some funky design going on lol

Puchased a proper set from hid4u insted and yes the coupon "toyota pro " still works people hehehe :-)

Will do Pete would be nice to put up a few pics with one side done for comparison :)

Actually ordered a 6000k set of eBay @£55 including delivery but after a 16 day of watching the letter box each morning decided to bite the bullet cancell that order and go for the quality ones after a little research ,

These are the cheepy ones the seller said they would take a hour to fit WTF ?

that was the final nail in the coffin for me , haha :0)

Just hope will get my full refund but states you will lose the 15 quid on shipping :(

haha the code still works just ordered a 5000k 35w set for the dipped beams ,"hb4"

was £97 now £74 which is very close to the heaps of s**t they are selling on eBay .

cant wait to get them will report back on fitting and overall look etc

but reccon should be safe ordering from these guys + worth the extra for peace of mind :D

Yes that makes sence with a full tanks extra weight alright :)

I also got mine as was becoming very annoying and awkward with a 2door celica and a 3 year old to hustle into the back baby seat every morning :(

Now she can climb in on her own with no help from mum and dad and no more bad backs for us too whoopee !

Even if the mpg was only 25mpg it's still worth the extra as such an awesome car :0)

Good we cleared that up thanks Stuart :) , guess the sport cross is a little heavier so less mpg ?

This is also one of the best car I've had and I've had quite a few including a 2005 Honda accord with similar spec apart that had tiptronic :(

The ect pwr button is also great fun if you don't mind caning the juice ...

^^^^ you do relise this the last post before yours was in 2009

hi Yes should I have created a new tread ?

though would be nice for an update ? :outforcount:

Snow mode is a must for around town , drive a auto worst mpg I got was about 22mpg ,

However filled up with €20 @ 1.57 per liter = 12.73 liters and got a whopping 35mpg

one or two trips on the moterway but mainly shot town trips :)

worked out @ 100miles for €20 why drive anything else ? :hocus-pokus:

Hi I got a replacement bumper that included headlight washers, however my car doesn't include them as standard ,

What do you need to convert

1. Wiring loom

2.pump

3. New water bottle and hoses

4. Switch

Have anyone don't this ? Is it an easy job to do your self ?

Thanks
