Had one or two issues with locks in the LS430. Contacted Paul Frost at Lexus Spares. Supplied parts, despite Hermes losing one of them, and they were fitted by my local Auto Electrician. They all work - no issue; nothing missing or broken. Big relief and my thanks to Paul for the brilliant service. Thoroughly recommended.

Ford Fiesta prices? Well, that's a blow. Who'd have thought.

Hi. I have a 2006 LEXUS LS430. While driving back from the supermarket two weeks ago, the NSR door opened a fraction and, as I rounded a corner, it flew open. Bit hair-raising to say the least. It seems the actuator has failed and despite locking it and applying the child lock, it still opens. I've found a part - used, which should be around this week. Lexus Swindon originally quoted me £238.00. Used part was lost in transit (Hermes) so I went back to Swindon. Miraculously, the price had risen to £840.00. Not impressed. If you have one of these cars, it is possible you will suffer the same issue. It's a serious problem; dogs, passengers, parcels might have been ejected.
