UX250h

I'm disappointed that Lexus didn't check this properly when they regassed it. Hopefully they will sort it out (under the Lexus relax warranty)

2019 F-Sport on 40k miles, it's just started to blow a bit coldish, as opposed to freezing. It's been regassed, and it's still the same, going back in on the 13th 

Still waiting after 2.5h for my UX250h Aircon to be regassed.

I thought this could be done in 30m.

How long does it normally take?

Thanks

It was the dashcam that got me thinking, as insurers now ask if you have a dashcam installed (which I do - its saved me twice now)

Just wondering...

Has anyone managed to get cheaper insurance due to 

1) The lexus app being able to track the vehicle location

2) Use of a steering wheel lock

Thanks for the update

It will be expensive,  i now have 4 x Hankook Ventus S1 Evo 3 runflats on my UX f-sport, these cost £322 for two tyres (you should really have the same 2 tyres on the same axle)

These are quieter, grippier (in the dry and especially in the wet) and ard proven to be the cheapest cost based on mileage.

Do your research, and plan accordingly 

No, I wouldnt drive through floodwater, it was there one day, gone the next, after parking in a multi storey carpark at Asda 

It hasn't been worked on since its last service at Lexus months ago!

I've had the car from new  its never been taken off!  Must have been stolen

Thieving gits 

Hmmm, so stolen then.... Bast*****s

Lexus say it has probably fallen out, i wonder if I've losened it somehow whilst washing the car 

Anyway, the replacement will be here on 3rd Jan at a cost of £92 (incl painting) so not too bad

Hi folks, anyone got an idea why I've lost this front bumper cover?

Many Thanks

Who quoted you £160? 

According to the brochure, the suspension on the f-sport is 'sport tuned' so, its different to the standard model with non runflat tyres 

Just call your insurers and check, you have nothing to lose.Its probably fine 👍 

If the car only comes with runflats (ie. no option for non runflats) then the car suspension has been designed specifically for runflat tyres (with stiffer sidewalls)

If you use non runflat tyres, you are making a change to the car safety (eg. The car will no longer safely tolerate a blowout, it may have different handling characteristics)

If you change all 4 tyres to non runflats with identical specs, you are probably fine. However I recommend checking with your insurance company for piece of mind. 

You don't want to prang your car due to a blow out only to subsequently find out that you invalidated your insurance by replacing tyres (that arent offered as standard)

Did you inform your insurance company and what did they say?

Is the car location working for anyone?  Still think my UX is at home, when its really 2m away!

Any car can be stolen if a thief is determined, however, the stoplock should stop most most theft attempts as it's a lot of hassle and noise (due to power tools) to remove it, hopefully, they'll move on to another vehicle 

Awesome.. Thank You

I'm sending it back, as I can't get it to fit, and the horn is constantly blowing.

Might see if Halfords will let me try other variants

I've just bought a stoplock steering-wheel theft deterrent lock for my UX f-sport, the manufacturers manual recommends the 'Pro' variant.

I've tried to install it, but I can't get it to fit!  Is anyone else using a stoplock with the knack, or is it just a case of being, it doesn't fit!

Thanks

I've attached a screenshot from... https://www.lexus-tech.eu/Navigation/base

Hmmmm, I've always asked for any updates to be applied, lexus have always told me, there aren't any...
