Thought I'd bring a bit of closure to this topic: - After getting passed about between independent mechanics and the dealer where I bought the car, I ended up going to the main Lexus dealer in Belfast who diagnosed it as a faulty MAP sensor. Yes, this car does indeed have both the MAP and MAF sensors, the one @200h identified is correct. Lexus wanted £230 for the replacement sensor. I got a used one on eBay for £25, installed in 2 minutes and cleared the codes using a simple obd scanner. Job jobbed.

No luck with cleaning the MAF, will try replacing it. See attached the fault codes

Thanks @Andrew888, I did read that but was confused by the description on the fault code that suggested it was a MAP sensor. I'll give the MAF a clean and see how I get on, cheers.

Thanks @200h, that looks like it might be the part alright, will have a nosey to see if it can be cleaned but I suspect it is a dud as it's showing 0v to it. @Andrew888, that would be the MAF rather than the MAP?

Hello all My 2016 IS300h has thrown a CEL today, reading the fault codes it indicates an issue with the map sensor. Did a forum search but did not come across any threads, has anyone cleaned/replaced the sensor? Where exactly is it? Thanks

Just to answer the original query - yes the badges are easy removed and the car looks much better without them imo. I used a heat gun (hair dryer) and a rubber wheel on cordless drill to remove any residual tack.
