My other half has a lightly used 51 reg, 108k RX300.
Night before last it cut out on her out of the blue. When she restarted it the eml and vsc stayed on but car drove fine for the few miles home.
Took it out yesterday during day, gave it a blow, all fine, no problems, no warning lights
Took it out last night and it cut out within 100yds, all dash lights came on. Restarted, no lights came on and car drove perfectly.
It's due to go in as there's an occasional grinding noise from osf brakes, and the a/c light has started to flash, so do we simply get codes read to begin with or are we looking at an obvious problem We use a great independent who we trust (Swan in Basildon)
The exhaust has been a slight issue since we've had it, last mot had an advisory saying very slight leak, but it didn't fail. Car is very lightly used, very much a second car (we have my gs300 as the main) so it can sit for days.
As I say, it went perfectly during the day yesterday when I used it. Only thing I did notice was the amount of "hiss" when I took the petrol cap off - but that's only when comparing it to mine.
Both times it cut out it's been on side roads, but obviously it's not something to be risked.
So ideas of what it might be would be welcome
