  1. I have the same problem on my IPad which started about a week ago. I’ve removed and reinstalled but same issue. Works ok on Android phone
  2. I’ve not done many journeys exceeding battery range in the cold but have noticed a few times that when battery is exhausted the fans blow cold air into the cabin. I am assuming this is because the engine is cold. I’ve not driven far after but assume once engine heats up then warm air is circulated again. has anyone else noticed this ? I would have expected the heating to stop blowing until the engine was warmer
  3. When I picked up mine it took a day or so for everything to sort itself out
  4. I believe the RAV 4 has a larger boot than the NX and would be cheaper but they are prone to the canbus theft. Personally I have always preferred ride quality over wheel size and you can’t see the wheels from inside the car. Replacement tires likely to be cheaper as well. if you do decide to go for the NX at least pick one up from bottom of the range if you can afford to although personally I have always since a young child picked the most expensive version of anything Inhave purchase. For those old enough in the UK that was immediately looking at the bottom right of any catalogue where the most expensive items always were
  5. Thanks to everyone for their help and comments. I returned to the dealers today, went out with a very patient and diligent technician who I have met before. He heard a the same rattle from the left side and a click from the dashboard so good to know I was not overreacting or mishearing. @ArneT you are correct as he confirmed most interior panels are clipped and can sometimes unclip or move. The left side was caused by a lose dash cam cable and he believes the dashboard was the trim right at the middle front where the alarm light is so he clipped this back into place Ride back was much better but real test will be back in the cold again tomorrow. I also looked at the new RX while I was there, the trim throughout seems to be very similar to the NX in that I could not see much if any additional soft touch trim So far a total of 5 different noises have appeared but hopefully all now fixed (fingers crossed)
  6. Thanks all, it’s going in again on Thursday. The dashboard squeak/creak seems to be worse over rougher roads and as the car is heating up. I definitely agree that once you hear it the mind gets attuned to it and you subconsciously listen for it again. will be interesting to see what the dealer says. The loan car I had did not have this particular noise. It had a couple of rattles but these seemed to come from distinct places. it does feel like this car simply was not screwed together with the correct torque settings ! I also agree some of the interior seems cheap, my wife’s previous 2 Yarris has been completely rattle and squeak/creak free.
  7. I have had the seatbelt rattle when left at an angle but still sometimes have a rattle there when sitting correctly
  8. My new NX has suffered a number of rattles since new. most of these have now been resolved however there are still about 2 that are not there on every drive and have not been there on visit to the dealer and I have been unable to pinpoint where they are coming from. I am also getting a lot of creaking which seems to be coming from the passenger side and one from the dashboard, the dashboard one is not loud but I can hear it. Car has been back 4 or 5 times since new in October for these and other issues and whilst improved far from ideal Very disappointed this is the worse car I have ever owned for creaks and rattles, even when previous cars have been a number of years old. This car is far from refined. Any ideas or similar issues ?
  9. I had a loan car for a couple of weeks and added it to the app. When I gave the car back I deleted my profile from the car and deleted the car from the app. The dealer had a couple of heating schedules which I paused while I had it but now they have the car back I am getting notifications on phone (Android) and IPad saying climate has started. It doesn’t appear within the app, only as an alert. i have emailed the app support on this but sounds like a backend issue. anyone else had this ?
  10. I wonder if it is starting to warm the battery. I preheated mine this morning and the engine didn’t come on. Dash wash showing -1
  11. This is what solved mine from Lexus customer services Remove vehicle from the Lexus Link+ App account, via the app’s “My Garage” page. Sign out of the mobile app. On the App’s log in page – Choose option to reset your password. Note: Your must enter your Email/Telephone number, before you get the ‘reset password’ option. Note: Please change your password to something different from the previous password. Turn on the car, and log into your Lexus Link account via the Multimedia system by using QR code when prompted. Scan the QR code shown on the MM system into the LexusLink+ App (My Garage, Add Vehicle, Use QR code). Once you are logged in to the Multimedia System in the car, please access and enable “Link profile to Key” – an option found under: Settings (from the Multimedia home screen) User account (Click into your name on the top left) Personal Info Enable ‘Link key’ (as per screenshot below) This should be a successful prevention of the profile log-out issue. “Link Key” means the MM systems seeks your profile details from recognition of the Key, rather than your mobile phone. The key is a more stable solution for profile recognition.
  12. Hi Has anyone experienced this on their NX, starting to see some stretching on the drivers seat after 900 miles. I am not a light person by any means but dont recall this on any previous cars Thanks
  13. My old volvo app was pretty much flawless from day 1 in 2017. Admittedly is had 2 years of dev time by then but this was 6 years ago on a platform nearly 8 years old now. used to get an alert saying doors were unlocked when they actually were and outside temperature so you could decide if it needed heating up in the morning. As so many people are experiencing the same bugs it is surprising that this doesn’t seem to have been tested further before releasing. It seems like Lexus are developing this on a live environment and this is still very much a beta app.
  14. I thought I had acc on but will try again to be sure, thanks
  15. Good point it is not available on all specs but definitely should be there on Takumi but doesn’t appear to be
  16. Hi, just wondered if anyone has used Lane change assist ? It’s listed on the spec and looking at YouTube there is supposed to be a setting under I think driver assist that allows you to turn it off and on. The setting on the video I saw (US) does not exist on my car. The dealer has been helpful and got a colleague who has used this function previously and it doesn’t work on their car either. I am not sure what the previous car was, but the dealer is trying to find out more information. I have also emailed customer relations who are normally quick to respond but nothing after a day so far. I wonder if a master setting has been turned off that I cannot see. Has anyone else tried or uses it ? Thanks
  17. Anyone else having issues setting climate control ? Get an error every time. It does look like I can lock/unlock. Also the cars status has not updated and is showing unlocked despite being locked
  18. I think my calculations for fuel were off in that I was calculating purely the petrol miles driven and fuel based on that without any allowance for additional hybrid use. Unfortunately the only trip I have done so far without a full battery was from the dealer and that one was not recorded.
  19. Yes my steering wheel is a few degrees to the left when driving straight. I was told this should be a quick fix, I suspect it’s a notch out
  20. Hello, I picked up my new 450h 2 weeks ago immediately noticed a rattle on rough A roads. Went in on Monday and dealer fixed it as could not hear it on way home (A pillar drivers side). The next trip which was about 80 miles and the longest so far I noticed a new sound coming from in front of me when at motorway speeds on rough roads (possibly dash or steering column), also now getting used to the car the steering wheel is slightly offset. This is booked into the dealer again for a couple of weeks to investigate, slightly frustrating on a new car and wonder what else may start working loose. Finally, appreciate the engine has only done a few miles but fuel consumption is currently in low 30s, has anyone else noticed this and have an idea of when this will start to improve ?
  21. Hi Charles, Can you add the dongle link again, the one you posted looks at your purchase history, For others I have a Samsung S22 Ultra with same problems, will connect once then not connect again. It was working reliably in my older RX for 2 years Thanks
  22. The white as far as I know is white and black. Black headlining and white and black seats. The middle of the seats where you sit are black. The glovebox is also white
  23. I had an email from my dealer yesterday, according to their systems they are currently expecting my car in early October so that’s 4 months from placing the order. So it does seem Lexus are now back up to speed on orders, but I do hope they are not building new orders at the expense of old. I would have been quite happy to wait and financially would have been better the longer I had left it
  24. I placed my order in early June and was told 6 months for delivery. I took that with a pinch of salt and in no rush to change. Will be I interesting when so orders placed this year start to b delivered. The Lexus website is quoting 4 weeks for RX orders. I may have imagined it but I thought the NX part of the website said that all the delivery slots for 2023 had been taken. This is no longer there.
