Driving along, minding my own business, in the tranquillity of my Topaz Brown interior and then bing, bong and radar cruise drops too. What nonsense is this?! I have to drive myself?
Flashing triangle? Check engine light? PKSB off?; I had to Google that too.
OK me thinks, best call the dealer; it would have to be a Saturday!
"Sorry, no one in, just us poor Sales guys", came the reply, "I can give you Lexus care's number". No problem, good response. 3 minutes on the 'phone to them and 25 minutes later a Lexus care man (disguised as an AA patrol) arrived.
Plugged in, cleared codes, scratched head, went for a joy-ride, I mean quality control drive for 10 minutes to see if anything returned, and we are done.
Great, a glitch in the matrix, no adverse weather conditions, and a grumbling transmission temperature sensor code.
OK, drove around, no return, then a few days later:-
Check Engine
Hybrid System Malfunction
No sign of the other 2, so some automatic nanite technology at play, best call the dealer; and it was 1710hrs so I am really pushing my luck! However, at 1801hrs I have a call and an appointment to see what is what.
Of course, the messages have now all gone, all by themselves, but we shall see what is stored.
Symptoms? Other than all the steering wheel toys of radar cruise and even volume taken away with the PKSB error, nothing except a noticeable vibration when in Park.
Lexus Care? Well, sounded like I had woken them up from their shift, had to rummage about for a pen when a report of a potentially broken one was reported! 😉
Anyone else had similar? 18 months old, and sadly only 16k on the clock for rather obvious reasons!
