I have just applied some WD-40 in and out. It is now working better than ever :).

Dear all, I am not able to fully open the sunroof using open or tilt buttons. It slightly opens, but does not move further. It gets stuck in there. Is there a way to reset this? Or is it as simple as a lubricant issue? best a.can

Dear All, I notice my 2013 CT slightly swaying to left and right at speeds over 50-60 mphs on the motorway. I initially thought this could be due to crosswinds, but I am being a bit paranoid about it. I took the car today for a front and rear wheel alignment to an independent reputable garage (not official delarship, I don't trust them anymore). I mentioned the problem, and they told me this could be due to some worn out parts. I should be hearing from them today afternoon. Have you every had any similar problem with your CTs? Your suggestions and comments are very much welcome. best A.can

Following your advice and seeing the recent news that 14 cat converters were stolen from Cambridge University Hospital car parks, I communicated with Lexus Cambridge and will be getting the cat loc fitted to my CT. Stay safe and thanks for all the advice.

Dear All, I started observing this "click" or friction sound on My Lexus CT front left door. I have just added some lubricant on the joints, it became relatively better. But not completely disappeared. I also notice that even though the front left door is aligned with the rear door, I could notice 1-2 mm slight differences. What do you recommend? Does that pose any security issues?

another idea. Could this be because my tyres need balancing and aligning?

I don't think CT200 has anything like that.

That's why I switched to BP 97 Ultimate petrol. In the city, I make 50-52 mpg. On highways, I reach sometimes to 65 mpg. With 95 petrol or petrol from other brands for some reason gives lower mileage.

Thank you very much for all the guidance and feedback. I feel much more comfortable now that my car should last long enough till I am financially stronger to upgrade to a UX250h.

I do the annual service, generally at 10k miles. is it too late for an oil change?

Dear all, during spring 2023, I will be relocating to Soham/Ely. But I will be working in Cambridge Science Park. This will give me 11 miles of commuting both ways everyday, totalling to 22 miles a day. I am currently driving a 2013 CT200h and I never had any trouble with the car. I wanted to ask your experiences and opinions on how reliable Ct200h are when it comes to daily commuting. This is now a 9 years old car and I have 64000 miles on it. Do you think it will last for another 5 years if I maintain as usual. best a.can

I am not sure if I will waste my time with this! This is just a very simple problem, yet they are selling the most complex engines in the planet. 🙄

Quick update! I had the tyres checked in the local garage. Left front tryes had a leakage through the valve. It is now fixed. Thanks for all the comments and guidance! 🙂

depending on the weather, I get a mix mpg. in warmer days, my record was 65-67 mpg. In winter days, this drops all the way to 45-48 mpg.

thank you! this is really useful.
