A year on IS300H F Sport
MotorDevil replied to Colinb623's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
I have a very similar car 😀 -
Looking good @MattDH What's the reverse camera like? Be good to know what the minor issues are? Can you still access all the normal Lexus settings as normal?

New Is300h Recall (Spotted Dec 2022)
MotorDevil replied to matt8's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
Looks like its been announced in Australia already: https://www.drive.com.au/news/lexus-australia-recalls-more-than-14000-gs-is-and-rc-models/ I'm sure the chances of anything happening are low but its one to get done asap I guess! I wonder how quick Lexus will be able to get these done. Best call them first thing Monday and beat the rush to get it booked in. The recall notice, uploaded to the Lexus Australia media website, says: "The involved vehicles are equipped with a fuel evaporative emission control unit (also referred to as fuel tank vent tube assembly) that is attached to the fuel tank by a flange. "The fuel tank vent tube assembly prevents the fuel vapour that is created in the fuel tank from being released directly into the atmosphere. "Due to the design of the flange, there is a possibility that a stress related crack could develop on the exterior surface of the flange. The crack could expand over time and, depending on the size of the crack, could eventually allow fuel to leak from the crack. "Depending on the amount of fuel that escapes from the crack, and if it is in the presence of an ignition source, this could increase the risk of a vehicle fire." -
Sorry to dig up an old thread but my car is due a recall. It's a 2015 IS300h that I imported to Ireland from the UK. Its for fuel tank ventilation tube. Anyone had it done yet?

In your current setup can you replace the Audio section with the Climate section, that way Audio is not shown anywhere. Then go back in again and see if it then allows you to make Audio your main screen. In my IS, if the option is already in a selected on the display it doesn't allow you 'move' it, you have make it unselected and then it allows you select where you want it to put it.

On the lookout for a set of DHP alloys, let me know if you are willing to sell, thanks.

I've been getting a clunk in the front suspension. After some investigation it seems like the strut rod bushing was a common cause. This morning I took them off for a look, pretty easy job which is nice. However I was expecting to see a lot worse in the regards cracks in the rubber. What does every think of the these? Are they due replacement?

So the door open warning light/bulb is gone on my dash. This is one of the lights that project down from the top of the cluster. Lexus/Toyota dealer have said this part is no longer available. Anyone know where I could pickup one of these or if they have a certain type/name I should be looking for? Could ask a breaker to post me a out one for a few quid I guess. Its part number 84999-50270

Theres something about the shape of the camera that makes it look a bit odd on the outside. They seem too thin for the size of the car, I'm sure you would get used to them very quickly They are in the new Honda E (where they look a lot better outside and inside with the screen), things like this will become more and more common so we might as well get used to it. I hope you buy one with them.
