Thanks for the heads up. I'm looking for a bit of slight induction sound, if possible. It's not essential but would be nice! 😎

Can anyone share where they have bought their F Sport Intake kit from? Also, is the part number PTR03-53100 ? I've seen a few sellers on ebay in the US, but I'll be looking at around £400 odd after import charges and delivery. Thanks in advance.

I recently bought one and I know you should check the condition of the exhaust as I believe it's a Lexus only part if you need a replacement. Therefore, can be expensive to replace. Also, the slide pins on the rear (front and back?) calipers have a tendency to seize and need red rubber grease on them periodically, perhaps every 6-12 months. Otherwise, you are looking at a caliper replacement. I'm sure there are many other things that more experienced members can help you with! [emoji1417]

Compass in mirror
JDM-Fiend replied to markeyszoo's topic in Lexus IS 250 / Lexus IS 250C Club / Lexus IS 220D & IS 200D Club
I'm fairly sure that's a US/Canada thing. Interested to see other replies. -
IS250 Too Quiet?
JDM-Fiend replied to Tyre Tread's topic in Lexus IS 250 / Lexus IS 250C Club / Lexus IS 220D & IS 200D Club
A good post, thanks. One of the many reasons I opted for a Lexus IS250 was that it's quiet and relaxing on a long run. A quiet cabin for a smaller saloon. -
Hi all, I've got a niggly issue with my passenger side mirror. Recently, I've been driving on the motorway and realised that my passenger side mirror position has changed from where I have it set. Odd. So, I thought let me set the position again and synchronise it with the memory position 1 on my door. I drive again recently and notice it's moved again. This goes on for a week or so and I've realised why the issue is happening, but I'm unsure how to fix it. To be on the safe side, I've also synced my key to the unlock procedure, just in case it was an old setting was recalled when unlocked. A very cool feature by the way too 😎 Basically, when I put the car into reverse, the side mirrors dip. But the passenger mirror doesn't go back to it's original position when going back into drive. It's not wildly wrong, but it's definitely not what I've set it to. Any ideas on how to fix it? I've trying recalling the memory function while parked, but it still doesn't go back to what I've set it to. It is almost as if the dipped mirror function makes the mirror lose where it used to be. Only affects the passenger side too. Thoughts and fixes welcome.

Group buy discount for the GROM Vline VL2
JDM-Fiend replied to DruLS's topic in Lexus Audio/Video/Electronics/Security
Is this still happening or not enough interest? Thanks. -
Thanks Mr Vlad! Yes, it's definitely a nice car and trim. I think I prefer it as a day to day driver compared to the F Sport I had. Mainly the non sporty seats [emoji23]

Hi all, I am back again, I have purchased an IS250 SE-L. I did have a 2010 IS250 F Sport a couple of years ago, but only had it for 6 months due to a job change. I'm looking forward to being an owner again, I've owned to many Honda's so I'm hoping Lexus becomes my new passion.

Sorry to revive an old thread, but I've got mine on order too. Didn't realise how screwed mine was until I saw your video! Thanks.

Watched it today, really amazing documentary. Hope more people watch it.

I don't want to turn this into a big debate, it's just opinions. A car is only better when it fills your needs, there is no overarching 'right' answer. To help clarify, they are all compact sport saloons (not sure about entry level?), but the IS250 is more of a luxury cruiser and rear wheel drive. The IS300 is an older generation and to my knowledge only came in an auto in this country, so it's a different type of drive automatically (no pun). The CL9 is front wheel drive and is very light on its feet. Just because they are in the same category, doesn't mean they are the same. This is all I meant by apples and oranges. The E46 325i/330i is in the same category, but again not comparable. Again, to reiterate the phrase 'better car' differs from person to person. If its overall driving enjoyment, then I'd say the Accord is a better car. If its luxury and refinement, the IS250 walks all over the Accord. This is coming from a current IS250 owner and a 2 year CL9 owner. Enjoy the Accord, pretty much a given anyway! (if it's a manual moreso!) If I kept mine, I would have gotten a Fujitsubo exhaust, slightly lowered it and bought some 17 or 18 inch Spoon alloys despite the cost. Sent from my Note 8 using Tapatalk
