    Hi! I have recently got a 2007 IS250. I've got a question regarding rear lights. Do facelift ones for a pre lift? One of mine is slightly damage and I might get a facelift used set it they are plug and play. Thank you!

    Will take some time getting used to for sure. The water pump is my biggest worry to be honest. I was made sure by the previous owner that it was done 3 years ago. I have checked but there are no unwanted noises and the water pump pulley looks like it has newer bolts then the other onew. I've replaced my bulbs and now it's all good. Did you get an engine light regarding your O2 sensors? Or did it idle badly?

    Hey. I have had nothing but worries with my previous car, E46 M54 engine. It's spent more time with the hood open than on the roads. Will take some time to get used not checking temperature or engine lights not popping up hah. Thank you!

    Hey. It looks like my new bulbs have fixed the issue. A question about things to look at regarding reliability. The last owner said the water pump was done 3 years ago at about 70k. The car is at 94k, should I worry about it? I can't here any rumbling and there are no leaks. The engine has a quiet tick to it and nothint from the belt area. Also, sometimes I get a high idle for the first 30 seconds, about 1400rpms then dies down to 1000rpm and finally to about 700rpm. Is this normal? Should I get it carbon cleaned just to be safe? Thanks for all the input!

    Does the bottom part come off from the bumper itself? If so I could just get a replacement from breakers, also where do I find my paint code? Thanks!

    Does the bottom part clip off from the bumper? I might just take it off till new one arrives. Would the one in the picture fit?

    I will let you guys know after a install new bulbs. Another thing. I bought the car with slightly damaged front lip (splitter). What's the best way to fix it? Can you buy another lip that goes over it? Thank you

    Having a closer look it looks as hazy as mine. I might try and polish the lens with a metal polish or something

    Oh nice. I might give it a go later on. I need to sort out the headlight issue first so that's my priority. If it is a ballast issue I've seen some on eBay for £35, or would be a wiser move to get a used genuine?

    I'll just have to press the button to fold so not a biggie. Do you know if they fold out when you reach a certain speed? Thanks

    Thanks for all the replies. I will most likely go with Osram at about £40 each. Also I've got another question. I have power folding mirrors and keyless entry. Is there another way that the mirrors could fold when I lock the car? Or do I have to code it? Thank you! I read online that it could be 3 things, bulbs, ballast or a fuse. I'll get new bulbs and see if it cures it. Is there anything to look out for when changing them? Should I unhook the battery? Thank you!

    Hello everyone. Recently I got a IS250 07 reg. A great car but it has some issues. I'm getting an intermittent passenger side headlight issue. It randomly cuts out when driving. I have already ordered some D4S bulbs and hopefully that will cure it. Another issue is a reverse camera quality. It seems very blurry. I tried cleaning the lense but it didn't improve it. Is it possible to buy a replacement? If so, could anyone guide me? I'm new to Lexuses. Thank you!
