  1. here is the link for you for hybrid batteries that phil has mentioned a member on the IS forum has used them to replace his own hybrid battery https://www.hybridbatterysolutions.co.uk/
  2. i thought you'd know the moral to the story John if you want a job doing properly do it yourself
  3. Hi John from the poll you had running a while ago are there any dealerships on your list that stands out for Stevie
  4. after test driving the car i hated it, it had far less tech than my f Sport Is300h and is far noiser i.e. road and wind , i had the cc on whilst on the motorway and realised i was gaining on the lorry in front as the rc didnt have radar fitted , i was very underwhelmed with it, the only feature i liked is the body style that i think is stunning.
  5. would this be of any help for you i know its for an rx i think there maybe similarities between both models and how it should be installed you can then check to make sure the correct cables have been joined
  6. i wouldnt agree the IS300h is an unreliable car i think its the owner having little knowledge of what needs to be done, did you ever disable the keyless entry for the car when it wasnt being used, its similar to saying that audi and bmw's are dangerous cars and they are not, again its the owner having no knowledge of what the indicators and mirrors & speed limits are for.
  7. how did the car let you down 5 times by any chance was it a bettery issue on each occasion
  8. just because its modified doesnt make it worth anymore & whats with all the extra clocks in the car, for the price of it i would expect the interior to be perfect and for the bonnet to be fitting better than it is.
  9. on the tyre sidewall there is a label of TREADWEAR and then a number after, the higher this number is the more hard wearing the tyre is my tyres are labeled treadwear 280 if you find a tyre with treadwear 320 the 320 tyre will be harder wearing longer lasting so keep this figure in mind .
  10. i dont have a ct so i cant help you with this question
  11. here is a link for you https://www.onlymanuals.com/lexus/other_model/lexus_ct_200h_workshop_manual_2011_2011 use the up / down arrows by the page number to look through the pages dont forget if you have to disconncet ANY yellow cablesSTOP & disconnect your battery then wait for 20 minutes before carrying on yellow cables = SRS system (airbags)
  12. here is a price from a motor factors near you for engine oil & filter
  13. here is a link for you, you will have to ask if the service book has been stamped or not https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114247057041?hash=item1a99a7be91:g:IPwAAOSw6NJgm6fr
  14. go to euro car parts and check the part numbers for both vehicles
  15. do you have the basic audio system if you do i think the amp is integrated into the head unit
  16. have you tried looking in the rear quarters of the car under the boot floor i know the GS's amp is located under the boot floor in the drivers side rear quarter
  17. i stopped mine from rattling tonight it took me 5 minutes here are some images after picture 4 i replaced the original bolt. the spacer is just big enough to press the outside of the insert down this is enough to grip the heat shield and stop it rattling.
  18. i think it depends on what you want more comforts you want in the car go for the Premier for more of a sporty feel go for the F Sport if the IS you are looking at has the premium nav then you will have an upgraded audio a separate amp and 8 speakers and to be honest it sounds great, you know if the car has the premium nav as the controller has a rectangular mouse style of controller over a dial version that has the 6 speaker setup.
  19. i'm sure in the past i have had an advisory for cracks in the tread area of a tyre
  20. the date code is normally a 4 digit number something like 5014 or 2814 this means the tyre had been made in the 50th week of 2014 or 28th week of 2014 you get the gist of things
  21. as far as i am aware kwikfit can't / wont service a hybrid vehicle also make sure they will be using 0 - 20w oil for your car
  22. hi Mike i may of found a door for you https://www.synetiq.co.uk/parts-breaking/details/rear-door-lexus-ls-2000-to-2006-silver-drivers-side---warranty---11212619/-/153146/ its £109 + vat inc posting i know its silver you can always get it painted
  23. if you have had the car longer than the 6 months john has mentioned have a look under the carpet by the transmission tunnel there will be a drain tube there it goes throught the floor to drain ( well it should drain outside ) once you have found the pipe put some towels down and disconnect the tube, blow down the tube to make sure the drain is clear i have used a syringe and warm water squirted water back up the drain tube into the ac system to dislodge any blockages once running clear reconnect the drain tube
