Hi all

New to the forum what clutch fluid do I need for put in 3 or 4Dot?

Welcome.

I was the same always wanted an IS200 and they are so cheap now and now I'm old enough not to worry about price of insurance I thought what the heck and bought one and I have had some decent cars and I prefer this one over everything else I've had. They were a BMW 325, a BMW 318 convertible, MK2 MR2, Impreza, 2.5 Legacy..... The lexus tops them all.

I get about 400miles or so to a tanks

Fitted all new discs and pads on her today and she now stops as well as she goes.

Where did you get the SMDs from for the dash?

And welcome.

Welcome

Nice looking motors!

Sat nav screen now working perfectly just took it out and cleaned up the contacts on the ribbon cable and no more flickering well chuffed shame the map is well out of date but got Tom Tom on my phone anyway but I like to see what roads are up ahead.

Hi All

New to the forum and was wondering if all the navagation units in the IS200 first gen were all DVD or were some CD-ROM only?

Cheers in advance

would they fit an IS200? look great might have to keep an eye out for some for my IS is they fit

not sure how long they last and how good they are though

Hey all

I am a new member and wondered if anyone knew where i could get my hands on a PDF copy of a service manual for the IS200? All the link i have found on here are dead

Thanks in advance

Chris

Will get me some of that then cheers for that :-)

Is it this stuff?

Just looking on the Halfords website do you know what the pink coolant is called?

Cheers for the pointer will get it for Halfords.

Do you know if the ribbon cables for the nav are available and possible to fix

Rad was ordered first thing this morning an should be here tuesday then will be fitted as soon as it arrives just need to go to toyota or lexus to get some long life coolant

Hi all

Thought I would come say hi as I have just purchased a Lexus IS200 on a V plate and loving it only issue I have had is a crack in the radiator the day after picking it up but new one on order and some K-Seal blocking the crack at present.

Here are a few pictures now I have machine polished it and correct the paint best I can for its age

Only things that need sorting is the rad of course, plus the wheels need referring thinking about doing them gloss black and the sat nav screen flickers a bit so need to source a new ribbon cable I think if that's possible to replace.

What does everyone think?
