Or possibly an air leak in the intake system?

Could be. But wouldn't this throw a CEL on the dash? Or rough idle/engine shaking etc? None of these are present.

Hi all,

This afternoon I have noticed my engine developed a whistle sound noticeable at low RPM 700-1500. As the the revs gets higher the sound is less and less audible, but I think it's still there.

Sounds like a big turbo spool (sadly, it's not that 😭🤣).

When it was colder outside my engine had a whine, a very noticeable one. I was suspecting alternator, bought one to replace it, however the whine disappeared as it got warmer and no symptoms of bad alternator occurred. 

Could this still be the alternator "telling" me it's soon, or a pulley?

Regards

Thanks for your input everyone! 

Contacted autodoc to send them back. 

Hi Everyone!

So I ordered a set of brake discs from autodoc. However, after opening the box, I noticed one of them is a little damaged. Nothing big, just wondering if that can cause integrity issues in the future? Should I send them back?

Stumbled upon this thread looking how to swap the 3is gear boot onto 2is console...waaay too much work for my liking 🤣🤣 going to stick to my carbon wrap and F Sport gear knob 😅

Amazing mods though! Completely different interior 😍

From 2011 there is no mention of ML in the press pack and the price list doesn't mention it either (no multimedia option).

There are some vehicles with 2011 plates but they are probably old stock, any genuine MY2011 vehicles (with black centre caps in the wheels, black/silver steering wheel etc.) won't have ML.

If the vehicle doesn't have the ML marking then it doesn't have the upgrade amps and speakers.

Cheers for that answer, mate! That clarified a lot.

2010 F Sport it is, then! 🙂

Just noticed that some models from those years have it. Like the Advance package. However F Sport seems to be missing that logo...

If it is sat nav version it should be Mark Levinson.

Even if it has sat nav, logo is still not present.

Hello, forum!

Not a Lexus owner here yet, but I've decided and IS250 F Sport is my choice. However I've got a question...

On IS250 F Sport models aged 2011+, there's a Mark Levinson audio sticker missing from the head unit.

My question is: was it no longer offered for those years as an option, or is it just lack of the sticker and that audio system is still there?

Just wondering if I should completely rule these years out and stick to the 2010 models...
