Thanks for your help guys. It doesn't do it all the time, if I brake harder than usual or when warmed up it either decreases or stops. I only have a short commute to work so only took it for a longer drive this afternoon. Really strange thing is it didn't do it on the test drive at all or immediately on leaving the dealership I bought it from. It started when I came off the motorway on the drive home. I agree regarding performance brakes needing to warm up. Otherwise it is superb :) I have bought the two year warranty extension for £795 so I have a three year warranty on the car, but I may give the service plan a miss then. I plan to service it a little early anyway, say at 8000 miles or 10 months for example. Pics to follow hopefully this weekend, time and weather dependent - we have a two year old and a three week old so time is limited!

Welcome :) Thanks Colin :)

Hello all, I've just discovered this forum and I think the car I have bought was owned by a member here. The car is superb, I love the rarity, the engine note and when the secondary intake opens up it just gets better. I do have a couple of questions though, sorry I am new to Lexus.... 1. The brakes are making an irritating squeal on light/normal application when coming to a stop in traffic. I understand this may indicate that the pads need replacing but I am told it has had new discs and pads fairly recently so my question is do any other owners have this issue and how is it resolved? 2. Is the service plan worth purchasing? The reason I ask is I guess this ties you to a particular dealer and therefore you can't request price matching or negotiate on service costs or can I negotiate on the cost of the service plan? I will definitely stick to Lexus servicing and I have purchased an additional two years warranty with the current offer that is available, so in effect I have a three year warranty. Thanks in advance - I hope to be a regular here now :) I will get some photos up when I get a chance to give it a full wash and wax although most of you have one and know exactly what they look like!

Hello Kevin, I think I have bought your old car :)

I bought a second-hand (non IS-F) IS on Saturday, and I was able to do exactly that (i.e., paid for an additional 24 months cover, which will start when the Lexus 12 months cover expires). So I have 3 years warranty on my new (to me) car. I have also just bought a used approved ISF and was able to do exactly the same. Hello everyone by the way - seeing as this is my first post!
