  1. Thank you Mate, We are going for 5 seater, it must be enough, the children factory is closing after this one for sure. 😅 I am glad that I got JAP car, as, since long time, in my family always were JAP cars as big ones. Only problem for me it, that it has BMW 1.6 diesel which is from MINI Cooper. But I guess Toyota made it even better and more reliable that BMW. I have test drive it, and it lacks power in compare to 130kw in IS, but still can feel it pulling away nice for a family car.
  2. Hello guys, It has come time to part with my Lexus IS220D F-Sport edition, I have owned it for 6 years, and enjoy every minute spent in it. The only reason for selling it,is the point that 3rd child is on the way, and there wont be enough space for all 3 kids in back row. But, what makes me happy, I will somehow still stay in relative family, as I have find very good Toyota Verso fron 2016 with 56000km on the clock with still remainign 2 years warrenty. The car is not so powerfull and eyecatching, but it is very good price for what I'm getting and it has enough space for everyone and everything. If anyone on here has Toyota Verso 1.6 Diesel, from 2016, you can post your oppinions and what to look for in it, what are the problems, where are some hidden tricks. Thank you all guys for having me and help me solve some general problems and questions tha have arisen during this 6 years of ownership. Maybe, in some further future, we will meet again.
  3. Hello all my Lexus friends and owners, I am thinking about selling my IS220d F-sport 2013 model with 73000km on the clock. It would be good if you could tell me the price range which i could expect for it. I bought it new an it was never crashed, only thing is the paint that is chipped on some parts from other doors. I only have good words and good time spent with it, only thing why I am thinking about selling it is low on space for 2 kids and 3rd on the way. If you could suggest some mid size car which would be good for fitting 2 baby seats and one booster in back row. I am thinking about buying it new in the price range from 25 - 30K Euros? Any help would be appriciated, especially from those who have 3 small kids with child seats. best regards
  4. I would say some 1s and 0s got mixed. this happened to me long time ago, but the problem was the car was locked and i needed to get in. luckily I was at home and try to change battery, but still didnt work, so I opened it manually with the key and the alarm started screaming. After I entered the car, placed key near ignition button alarm stopped and car started normally. Tried to lock and unlock it few more times afterwords and everything was working fine. After that when I went for regular service they said there is no error reporting, just probably some binary code mixed.
  5. I have my on IS220D and you can just heare them above 100KPH and if the radio if off. Anyways, I am very pleased with it, and also, the fuel average din´t raise a lot. So, yes I think it is a good option, as the trunk on IS is so smoll and limited due to big part falling off for the wheel arch. Hope this helps
  6. One of my friend had a problem with what we call Micro-belt - belt thet connects aircondition compressor and car distribution. He had a lot of prblems because compressor jamed. Best regards
  7. One more thing you could check, is the coolent level. It can happen that it is to low and there is no enought water level to heat.
  8. Hello guys, I have a question regarding manual shifter in IS220D, the thing is that in 2nd gear (sometimes 4th also) when you are driving on Low revs you can hear plastic rattle coming from the shifter itselfe. I still didnt remove the leather cover from it to see if there is something visible to the eye, and didnt contact the service station because it is not affecting on any of performance, it is only annoying for now. I dont know should I go to the service as it still has the warranty, or is there any other solution to this. Hope to get some answers on this before I start to take action Best regards
  9. Hey, I wouldnt play to much with that, Few days ago my friend in Ford mondeo had almost same issue, the compressor stoped working (mechanicly blocked) and after that the car started to smoke in the cabin. The reason was that Microbelt (we call it like thet) which is rotating the compressor was rotating and the compressr wasnt moving and it fell of... So I think you should go check that as soon as possible, because if something happens, it is not drivable... Last thing, the compressor is around 900 punds in Croatia... Not cheep for us.
  10. Tnx Johnatg, It helps in a way of checking my voltage and current, but I can not find exect voltage it should be filling the battery. But now i got something, called toyota dealer and they said optimal voltage would be 14,05V. So my is lower than this... and need to check if they will replace it
  11. Hey guys, I have slight problem, as i was changing the Battery for my Lexus IS220d (2012) the electrician told me that my alternator is not probably working good, and it is filling the battery lower than it should. So my question is, do you have some reliable informations regarding the Voltage and Amps that the good alternator on this model should give. As I still have the varenty I would like to replace it, but I need to know the exact voltage and Amps, becouse our service in Croacia is always looking to save money for them... Hopefully you will have some good infos. best regards
  12. Well, I had this problem on my very OLD car, but I think it is the same priniciple of starting Diesel motors. I am not sure how to say it in english, but it think it is the sensor that monitors the temperature in Cylindrs and activates the heater. But I may be mistaking... Not totaly sure. Hope this helps you
  13. I think also, only when you fill it up, it can be reseted automaticly
  14. I would also stay on Lexus recommendation, As when you have low pressure your tire sides will be suffering more.
  15. Hey Carl, Depending if the car is cold or warm, it moves from 800-1200 if the AC is on.
  16. Hello, If you bought your car, and it is new, I suggest to you that you go garage and check your link between front tires (not sure how you say that in english), my angle was bad, and every time I turn the wheels all he way you could hear them grind on the edge of tires. Now my tires are slick on the edges, and as new in the middle, but still I need to change them because I can not pass the MOT. My was all massed up, and destroyed my tires after 20000 km. Hopefully this helps you Best regards Hrvoje
  17. If someone finds one, i would like to get a link to it as well, I have been searching on internet for ages, over torrents and everything, and it is not possible to find it
  18. Hey Pilgrim, Although I bet it would look very good, and dont know what the ride would look like, I have one thing to say about bigger wheels. I know from my previouse car, when I changed my wheels in one size bigger, I could feel that it is affecting the acceleration, it is little slower in acceleration, but you gain few Km/h, because bigger wheels is much harder to spin, but you need less rpm-s for same speed. When you change the wheels, (Dont know if it is possible) to re-calibre the speedometer, because it is calibrated to original size. But I bet it would look great, I have 220d F sport with 18" dark wheels, as you can see on the photo. And I love them, except the thing they dont love the curbes so much. So also look for tires with rim protection.
  19. As they explained to me in service station, it is the common for exhaus manifold because it generates high temperature and it is not possible for any paint to stick. I have annual service coming in 1 mounth and I will ask them again, to see if it is true what they said before...
  20. Ofcourse you can use it without AC, just choose where you want it to blow, how fast, and set temperature. And if AC sign turn on, turn it off, it should continue working. I got with Navigatio on touch screen, so it is different if you dont have Navigation I guess. Hope it will help you
  21. Hey Kully, If you battery also was dead, probably there was some kind of short circuit and that is why your boot and windows were open. I guess this could be some safety option when something happends, for exemple crash. Bye
  22. Hey, when you click on Climate control option on dashboard, you dont have to turn on the AC, you have an option to heat your windscreen and your legs I think, it is the last option. If you have screen, if not, sorry, dont know than, but there should be an option to blow hot air on windscreen and on your legs. I hope this will help you
  23. Hey First thing I have notice is that you have two different tire tipes on front wheels, that is the worst thing you can do, and other problem is that there is difference in miles they have done, because they will never get to the same profile, and handeling at breaking is differente. All the tires should allways be same make and model, at least on front 2, and rear 2, because every tire is making different friction while spinning on the road, so it is wearing different. Hope this will solw your problem of noise.
  24. Hey guys, i just had little accident yesterday, i have is220d f-sport with those dark rims and yesterday, while i was driving i crashed in the side of the road and my paint got chipped on the rims, so now they look very bad on one part, with white stripes from the sidewalk. My question is did someone had the same problem and how could I fix this, without repainting them, is it good enough some polish paste? Thanx a lot I will put the photo on today afternoon when i get home
  25. I think you are all wrong, this should be rain sensor, to turn on whipers, if you are talking about the little circuite od center of dashbord
