RX300 04 model radiator
Monte replied to Lexus-Rx300's topic in RX 300 / RX 350 / RX 400h / RX 200t / RX 450h Club
Replaced radiator last year for £300 all inc. It is a pain for mechanics TBH. There are two ways to do that - take it off from beneath or pull it up. There has to be disconnected AT cooling pipe to take radiator down. This was badly corroded so mechanic decided not to touch it. To pull radiator up is more time consuming and a bit expensive. -

Rx300/350 Reversing Lamps

Hi everyone! I can't open my tailgate any more, it is locked at all times. Car is LE model so opens only manually. Without a key hole in door can't open from outside - need fold down rear seat, get in the boot and open it from inside - that's disgusting... After some investigation I found that there is no any central lock mechanism for tailgate, it just disables door handle which is not kind of a mechanism but just contact to activate door lock motor. Couldn't find any info about that, any suggestions please...? Cheers, Monte

Many Questions About Rx300 Se-L
Monte replied to MDJ's topic in RX 300 / RX 350 / RX 400h / RX 200t / RX 450h Club
Hi, Q5. Mine has had a leak from power steering pipe which has been replaced by dealer for £72+ labour, part no 44416 - 48052, pretty sure it could be done cheaper at local garage but firstly check it. Q10. Yes, tale pipe trim can be replaced separately, part no 17408 - 16020. Sorry, can't answer other questions cos mine is Limited Edition... -
