  1. Just as an update on this I called around a lot of locksmiths, heard a load of BS and ended up going to the dealer and paying £400 for a replacement key.
  2. Hi All, Looking for recommendations on getting a new spare key for my 06 450h as it came with only the master key, it's just a matter of time before the wife or one of the kids loses our only bloody key! Can anyone recommend a way forward without giving Lexus £300? I'm based in Stroud but more than happy to travel to get to a good locksmith that's recommended for this type of situation. Thanks Dan
  3. Thanks all, sounds like it's main dealer all the way on this then 🙂 Cheers Dan
  4. Hi All, I need some new all seasons rubber for each corner for my 06 GS450h, however I've heard the TPMS modules can be very delicate and easily broken by tyre fitters, I've had a look around the form and see mention of a 'fitting kit' 04423-02010 but I don't see this PN listed anywhere on Lexus or Toyota parts sites or ebay, although I haven't called Lexus service centre yet I guess that's the right place to find them Also is it worth just going to Lexus to get the tyres fitted, I'm assuming they would know the right procedure to replace without damaging the sensors? Thanks Dan
  5. Not had mine (06) long but no issues so far touch wood! Also just did a weeks driving holiday in France with a family of four was a bit of a squeeze but we managed it ok, the boot isn't 'that' bad 🙂
  6. One thing I found odd test driving a 2006 450h was the high idle from cold, it warms up really quickly though and is perfectly normal, also I've noticed the cruse control can be quite harsh coming on and off power due to the switching between electric, petrol and regen braking.
  7. Thanks for the welcome John, I'm planning on keeping the service history up and a visit to Lexus Cheltenham is on the cards, it's been almost two years since it's last service but in that time it's only done just over 500 miles, I'm thinking I should probably get it serviced anyway. Cheers Dan
  8. Hi All, Another new member here, been looking for a GS450h for a few months and finally found one with the right spec and millage in Bury a few weeks back, took me four hours and just as many trains to get up there but it was well worth it! Just under 50k on the clock and a full Lexus service history, I'm really happy with it love how it's so quiet but when you floor it you'll easily surprise most people from the lights. 🙂 I was a little disappointed to find I had no Aux in on the ML system, and to be fair I can't really notice any difference in quality or volume from the standard system in my E Class Merc but maybe I'm just not an audiophile, also does anyone else have an issue with the windows going fully up or down but not stopping anywhere in between? Thinking it might just be dodgy switches as this car hasn't seen many miles but maybe someones seen this before. Cheers Dan
