Mr Vlad

Good pic well found Rayaans. Nice and subtle spoiler really works and may be on the cards for my car.

Exactly Andrew. I'd take the car back to lexus for an explanation/excuse. Let us know how you get on.

I'd really like to see a 3rd gen IS300H wirh a boot spoiler. Think a Google search is on the agenda. I can see one making the car look even better.

They'e done a great job but the centre 2 are in the wrong place. Why didn't they fit the front facing sensors in the grill where they are as standard fitment ?

Well put there Gang. Your post reminded me about a company I used to deliver to in Sheffield. Can' remember their name but in essence what they do is make equipment that takes out the hydrogen in air and water and use that hydrogen to make electricity. They even have a car charging dock which they said is free to use. The stuff they make is the size of a big container and they cost around £1 million. I think hydrogen power will come before the solid state batteries. I saw that lamborghini are going g to make a new flagship car to replace the murchelago. It will be hybrid. This is a damn good thread.

When the day comes that all cars are electric cars the charging of them will be of the wireless type that's available today with mobile phones for instance. That day however is a long long way off because the replacement of the lithium batteries (which I have read they're being worked upon) is a good while off. This new battery will hold more charge and it'll charge up very quickly too without sapping the national grid. I'm no expert but where it matters I take a big interest and read the articles related to this subject.

Nice. It'l look rather tasty with tinted rear glass.

Hi Billy. Glad you're enjoying your car. They are a superb car and I enjoy mine every time I drive it.

Any car is correct/suitable for a 2 mile commute so long gs as it's given an Italian tune once a week.

Hi Carl. Just read your thread. What's the latest with your cars heater problem? I'm suprised such a problem arose.

Am I missing something? I just can't see why anyone would like/want to get a LPG conversion on a hybrid!

For valve caps simplygo to a pound shop where you can find all kinds of caps at 4 for a pound. Oh and not all of them are crap. A lot of them are very good quality.

I'm suprised they're not already part of the test. After all reverse lights have been on cars for decades and is a light after all.

Yes an Italian tune can work wonders. Either way get your car on a good diagnostic machine even from a dealer to get to the bottom of the light.

Mmmmmm that's interesting. To be sure do contact your lexus dealer.

I've just googled it and it stated a severe misfire which dumps unburnt fuel into the catalytic convertor causing premature overheating causing a big expense. Ok it may cost you quite a few quid but best phone your dealer to deal with it. Is your car less than a year old or does it have a warranty? In any case Don't use it till its sorted I'd suggest and possibly save a grand or more. How many miles on your car and how old is it?

Hi. Have a look in your handbook to see if there's anything in there to help. You could phone a dealer to get an idea. When it flashes does your car judder or miss a beat? Yellow engine lights usually stay on and are a serious problem but since yours flashes it could be a dodgy connection somewhere.

If I remember correctly Warranty Direct would cover the batteries But if I'm wrong I wouldn't personally be bothered after seeing a video on youtube about a company in America supplying new replacement battery cells for the Prius. I think by the time the batteries in my car needing attention then that same company, of which I believe there are quite a number spread about America and by that time too they'd be here in blighty, I'd get replace cells and change them myself. Toyota will do my servicing. Lexus will do the hybrid heath check and all other electrical mechanical items will be covered by WD. It' my choice at the end of the day and also my car will undoubtedly be the most looked after is300h out there and for a fraction of the cost the 'I saw you coming' company known as lexus. Thankyou

Relay boxes placed near the car and a high power aerial to pick up the signal from the key? Poppycock. There have been hand held devices used to pick up signals from car remote fobs and I've known about them since the 90's. They can also pick up the signal in keyless entry systems. To totally protect your car get an aftermarket alarm/isolator system fitted. I've recently learnt about a new system called Ghost. I'l be making enquiries about its fitment to the is300h.

Car makers own extended warranties aren't necessarily the best out there. There are independent company extended warranties that are excellent and made for people who feel their hands are tied because of terms and conditions.

What an interesting thread as I was unaware that there' only 1 reverse light and only 1 rear high intensity light. A pet hate of mine as I hate cars with only 1 of each. As for the MOT status of reversing lights. They are Not part of the test. I' like to know how the reversing light was changed to a high intensity light as it' so.thing I'd do. Someone' stated they' change the rear reflectors to be high intensity lights. Sorry pal but that'd be a MOT failure and illegal. Cars Must have rear refectors.

What I've found over the years is that you notice more of the cars you drive. For example you gone from a beemer 3 series to a GS300. You then start seeing the GS300 because you'e got one and didn't notice them prior to your purchase. You probably notice less CT200's now.

You could try squirting silicon spray in the grooves of the window rubbers grooves where the glass rides. Hope that makes sense.

Looks like it' been neglected and just needs a good clean and possibly a polish.

So Sven. What's the latest? I forget to mention when I last posted that my brake light comes on with the slightest pressure on the pedal.
