  1. Cheers everyone for the info, really appreciated👍👍👍👍. I think i'm going to take it in to Lexus next week and let them have a looksie at it, i'm thinking along the lines of Ode, don't think the EGR has been cleaned in it's lifetime so hopefully that and the software update will do the trick.... Unfortunately i don't think Lexus Bolton will be as efficient as your local dealership in Germany .....but i have got the copy of your repair procedure which you uploaded and i will ask them to follow it to a "T" Many thanks Steve.
  2. Cheers Paul, Was thinking along the same lines......gonna take her for a blast upto Lancaster tomorrow and see how she get's on......i think i'll be a lot wiser to the issue once i've let her get a head of speed up for a good 60 miles or so👍👍👍👍 Yeah been checking the oil regularly and it's pretty constant to be honest, daft thing is if i put my foot down and give her some welly there's not 1 puff of smoke, if i drive like an old lady she belches like a wrongun......
  3. My 2007 Lexus IS 220D is smoking, the car has done 130k and i've owned it for around a month. No warning lights are on and there's no smoking while stationary i.e when i rev the car when it's parked up.... i only do short journeys, to and from work which is 2 junctions on the M60 then too and fro from the shops , running the kids to school and so on....I've been reading a few post's on the forum and i'm thinking it could require the EGR valve to be cleaned as i've no idea if this has ever been done and as stated it's got 130k on the clock, also could the short journeys be a factor??? Any help or info would be appreciated.
