  1. Thanks a lot for this advice. I found it really useful. I think you were spot on!
  2. Hi Guys, I wanted to share with you a software bug I experienced when using my RX450h navigation earlier this year. Please see the attached photo. Nasty! For some reason instead of showing the map the engine charging information was shown instead. I could not remove it using the system controls. Had to turn off ignition to remove it. For background information I have updated the navigation software to the latest. Cheers
  3. I am hearing an annoying creak from the rear near side. It only happens occasionally - especially when the suspension is being stretched, i.e. over certain speed bumps. Direction of travel might affect. I am planning to have a look at the rear lateral damper which is fitted to the F-Sport. CT owners have reported creaking due to their lateral dampers becoming loose. Other than that - the car has likely been sitting for a long time on a deflated rear near side tyre. This might have stressed some of the rubber bushings found on the roll bars etc.
  4. Hi. I think i can help. It looks like a seat belt component used to help fit young people more comfortably. The clips tuck in for storage on the outside of the rear seats. Usually it is attached by a cord.
  5. Wow Barry thank you for the excellent information. That talk of leaks makes me worried and I might not bother after all.
  6. I too would like to find some roof bars. Ideally second hand but seem hard to find. That one on alibaba may or may not be ok. I have asked Lexus Birmingham to contact me with a price...
  7. The dealer who advised me was different from the one who I purchased the car from. I spoke to the body shop department. They said since it is a heavy car this could be expected. The ground was considerably uneven as it was in an unsurfaced car park with deep puddle holes.
  8. Hi thanks for your response. I am mentally marking this as resolved. The car is HPI clear and Lexus have informed me that flex of this type can be expected.
  9. Hi Guys Another query for anyone kind enough to respond - does anyone have any intel on how much the RX 450h 3G body flexes? I have noticed when parking on uneven terrain the panel gaps increasing. I am talking 2-3 mm increases and doors not aligning with their stoppers.
  10. Thanks for the response. I checked the levels. I also found this video which shows where the ac outlet pipe is located. This seems to be the same location as my leak: https://youtu.be/XQmwHPl-Kkw
  11. Hi everyone Could someone please let me know where I might expect legitimate water drips from underneath my car. I know that the AC unit and catalytic convertor can leak water as part of their normal operation. I have a 3g RX. I ask this because I am seeing dripping over a period of hours. The area is beneath the engine. I actually saw a drip coming from somewhere higher up in the engine bay. I would have thought the water would drain from a pipe. It appears to collecting above some kind of cover and is just finding its own way out. I can send a picture for clarity.
  12. Hi @Herbie please could you send me the info you sent the others? I am cleaning up after an installer who repaired a smashed rear window. I just want to make sure everything is present and correct.
  13. According to a Lexus body shop technician this can happen with cars of this vintage.
  14. Hi - thanks for the response. Here are two larger photos. I am now thinking the cracks are the result of wear and tear caused by years of repeated door slamming.
  15. I reposted my message to try to reach a wider audience. How can I find an approved lexus repairer? Obviously a Lexus dealership but who else? Another question - do you think something like that would be covered under the extended warranty?
  16. On my 2013 RX I have noticed some cracking on the top of the inside door jambs - see attached photos. Has anyone else seen this? The car is HPI clear. I wonder this could have been caused by rain seeping in over time. If so then other car will be affected similarly.
  17. Perhaps have a look when you look at the car? I think i will post this on its own in its own thread. Interested to hear what might cause it.

  19. Ok. I suppose thats the price of the improved handling. I wonder how the other models compare. E.g. the Advance on its 18” wheels. There are a number of low mileage F Sports examples around. I wonder whether people were seduced by the marketing but could not handle the ride?
  20. Hi The carbuyer review from 8 years ago says the F Sport ride is poor. How does it compare to the other models? And to other SUVs?
