Apologies for the late reply Olliesgrandad but only just been released from hospital ..
Yes that is one heavy tailgate .. hope your grandson's fingers weren't stinging too much .. least you were outside A & E which might have proven handy otherwise
Thanks for the input
Thank you for the reply .. I've not used this Key button ever !! .. however just been out to the car and tried it and it works .. fully opens and fully closes .. so I guess you have answered my question in that .. only the key button or dashboard remote can initiate fully automatic mode ..
Thanks for the input appreciated
Hi all ..
I recently sold an LS600h unfortunately I only recently found the key card still in an old wallet .. I have no idea who now owns the vehicle otherwise I would post it on
Can anyone tell me if this Key Card from the LS600h can be re-coded to work with my 2011 RX450h
Thanks in advance
Hi ..
This may sound a silly question .. I own a 2011 RX450h
My question is after 5 years of use .. I unlock the tailgate by pressing the button above the rear Registration Plate this unlocks things but I then have to manually open the tailgate all the way which is awkward when you have a heap of shopping .. should the tailgate not open itself .. fully and automatically without my having to lift it ??
I ask because although I rarely use the remote Tailgate switch on the dashboard .. when I do use this switch it will fully open the Tailgate automatically .. likewise when I press this remote switch again it will fully close the Tailgate without any intervention on my behalf
Any comments would be appreciated thanks
Hi John ..
Thank you soooo very much for that and your super quick response .. I have just been out to the car and put the screen all back as it was .. brilliant 🙂
Never ever noticed those little boxes let alone knew you could change the settings and quite frankly don't even know how I did it in the first place but thank you .. i'm very grateful for your input especially as I was seeing a visit to Lexus and pound notes disappearing into their coffers
Cheers Gilbert
A few years ago we had weeks of really severe flooding in Cumbria .. I drove thro' it all every day and haven't had any problems .. just make sure Bow water stays below the Air Intake otherwise you are asking for problems 🙂
Hi All ..
Wondering if someone can help .. a couple of weeks ago I was fitting my Bike Carrier to the rear Tailgate of my 2011 RX450h and stupidly pulled the door closed instead of pushing the button to do it automatically .. I had only pulled the Tailgate partly down when suddenly there was a loud bang and from then on each time I closed the tailgate I had to do it manually .. as the button to close just wasn't working anymore so I figured something had broken ..
Then 5 days ago I go to close the Tailgate and just out of long term habit pressed the Close button and hey presto It closed and has been perfect ever since
Bear with me here .. I now notice that when I select reverse gear to back into my parking space I have a clear picture of what is behind the car but most of the reversing guide lines which appear on the Dashboard Display have disappeared .. i.e. the Yellow guide lines and also the Red line which tells you your getting too close to an object and which works in conjunction with the audible Beep .. all gone !!
All I have is an occasional Green guide line and sometimes a Green box guide on screen .. no audible warnings anymore
Visual Inspection of the Camera shows nothing wrong .. Parking sensors are definitely in the On mode and I haven't had a bump of any sort
Could the Tailgate stopping working and guide lines disappearing just be a coincidence .. or perhaps a computer software glitch or maybe a hardware malfunction
Any theories / fixes / suggestions would be most appreciated
Cheers Gilbert
Thanks Olliesgrandad ..
I know its only taken me since January (been pretty busy) but I now have a Nav screen which has stopped switching itself around at random thanks to your tip on going into General Settings and switching off the screen reset feature , really appreciated
Cheers Gilbert
Hi Andy ..
Welcome to the forum and that looks like a nice car .. you will find all the members very knowledgeable and helpful as I have should you have a problem of any kind
Who is selling the car ? .. i'm in Didsbury and wouldn't mind having a nosy at it if you don't mind
Cheers Gilbert
Appreciate the feedback, good to know i'm not alone, a Lexus quirk that i'm obviously going to have to live with then but still seems odd
Ill take another look in the settings, I may just have missed summat'
Thanks Olliesgrandad
Hi all ..
Need some advice .. I feel the NavScreen on my 2011 RX450h has always behaved rather erratically in that I select any specific function ie. Audio or Telephone etc: and then after a while if I just leave it .. the unit either switches itself off or reverts to the road map function even tho' I havn't touched the thing .. I would have thought that if for instance I had selected Audio the unit would stay alive showing the audio channels and stay in that mode until I selected another function but it dosn't
Am I the only one or has someone else had this problem .. any suggestions or help would be appreciated
Cheers
