    Mate, with all due respect you have been reading to many car magazines. Lexus and other car manufacterers spend millions setting their cars up for optimum performance, comfort and fuel economy. 3lbs extra in your tyres is not going to make any difference.

    Make sure your low pressure censors are set while at 36psi and forget about tyre pressures. My tyres have been checked yearly (I hope) by Lexus on the service. 

    This was from a Lexus blog https://blog.lexus.co.uk/lexus-is-tyre-pressure-and-size-guide/

    Pressure

    16-inch wheels (SE): The front tyres should be inflated to 36 psi, but this can be increased to 39 psi in the interests of economy at speeds of 100mph or less.

    The rear tyres should be inflated to 36 psi, unless five passengers are on board and speeds exceed 100mph. You may choose to increase inflation levels for rear tyres to 39 psi to increase economy. This is only advisable at speeds below 100mph.

    Was just curious if it made a difference. I've left it as 36 PSI for now.

  2. Thanks for the quick reply.

    I will have to take a photo of my temp gauge, mine definitely is not dead straight.

    I purchased the car from an Inchcape dealer and they offered a 3 year warranty for £1099. I am still undecided about purchasing this especially as Lexus offer a 2 year extended warranty for £795. I know the car is meant to be reliable and I have a 1 year Lexus warranty to iron out any issues but I wonder for peace of mind whether to take it or not...  

  3. Hey everyone. I just purchase a 14 plate IS300H SE with 50K on the clock which I am enjoying driving. I have a few questions which I don't know if they are features or faults!

    (1) Is the coolant temperature gauge at normal operating level at the twenty to position or dead straight around quarter to position?

    (2) Is the rear screen heater meant to clear right to the top or start around 2-3 inches below?

    (3) I've updated the sat nav to the latest OP version (thanks eBay!). I wanted to check if the speed camera are based on static data from the map or from a live feed?

    (4) Where is the OBDII connector? Has anyone managed to read any sensor data using the Android Torque app?

    Thanks!
