That could be the answer if I can make it fit

Thanks guys appreciated. I tried eBay and it came up with just two parts.Thanks for the on car fix as well.Might give it a wee bash

Hi Guys,

I went over a bump and heard a crack. Then the light came on for the rear height sensor for the head lights. I am struggling to find anywhere that does it. I found one but it over £200. Any ideas? Thanks

Cheers Malachy

It has 127,000. I had a Nissan Terrano before this as well as an X308 Jaguar XJR, I have a couple of friends who drive a Lexus and they have always appealed to me. I tend to buy older cars rather than new as I find them less clinical. The front bumper has loads of stone chips as does the front of the bonnet. I'm getting these resprayed and then the whole car detailed. I've also ordered new discs and pads. I like to keep my cars nice as well as mechanically sound 🙂

It seems after a bit of checking the vented are two mm thicker. 18mm for Vented and 16mm for solid. I found this out on a parts site. Everywhere else only seems to sell 310mm x 18mm vented. The front are vented and are fine.

Just found another site that has the solids at 12mm. Oh dear

Hi All,

Just got y first Lexus GS300 SE-L and loving it. Thought I would say Hi.

I just bought a 55 plate Lexus GS300. I love the car but was checking the rear discs and they are only a few mm thick. In fact I could almost bend them. I decided to order new discs but the auto parts data, and on-line websites, all say 310mm vented are the correct disc. Can I fit vented discs and new pads even though it is a solid disc on the back.

Edited to add.....Hi all. I'm new here and hope to contribute as much as I can
