    Tyres like slices of bacon over our potholed mess of a national road system. Form over function ?
  2. VFR
    AH! You bought a car, another matter for someone who has not but needing a warranty issue looking at..
  3. VFR
    Yes it’s a funny old world as most on here (so I read) who use Stoke give the place a thumbs up.
  4. VFR
    Should it not be the customers (?) As Stoke would be at the bottom & Snows of Exeter at the top from my experience.
  5. VFR
    I take it you have not see them driven onto / off the ships into the parking areas & then onto a dealer ?
  6. VFR
    Yes as having lived in the area for quite a few years (my email will endorse that) and having cooked it for a group of local friends (but never grand mullouscous) I tend to agree.. Like anything, it might be great there but never the same here. (Wherever that may be)
  7. VFR
    I use it for a bigger SatNav screen and it worked a treat for me & will of course do a great deal more.
  8. VFR
    Sounds quite nice.
  9. VFR
    Ermm ? Ah ! Beans on toast (al a cart of course)
  10. VFR
    Hmmm ? Who is replacing the pump & what pump is being fitted (OE or ?)
  11. VFR
    Re read what I wrote and sorry about that as it looks a tad rude. Anyway these are the markings on the screen fitted & I did check with Autoglass first that they had my chassis number to check what glass was fitted by Lexus ( tint etc )
  12. VFR
    Had my windscreen replaced by Autoglass last year and very satisfied (ex engineer / mechanic BTW) As has been said Lexus “do not” make windscreens !
  13. VFR
    Same here as that is why I have a Lexus.
  14. VFR
    With any of this stuff it should be easier than an easier thing to use ! I should never need to take it to Lexus to a ( Techy Geek) to sort. I was in my Son’s Tesla this week and it sorted itself (plain & simple) unless you need to charge it at some other charger than a Tesla one. ( he needed to change it’s charging rate) Wake up Lexus we were (my Son & I ) were in BudaPest at the weekend but he could talk to the car at anytime to the car parked in the UK. Scary I know (for as Old Git’s) but such is life nowadays.

    +1 for Snows from me as well, only used the once for my last service but was impressed.
  16. VFR
    Same here on my Series 3 (2015) reported to Lexus Coventry as I had just bought it. I said it was “hunting” that was as clear as day (old term meaning missing) but happened once or twice a good year or so back and has never shown its face since.
  17. VFR
    Will you tyre man not vulcanise the repair as this is way better than a plug,
  18. VFR
    Yes mine was the same (?) £190 a year.
  19. VFR
    Thanks for that info Phil and I will ask my local dealer who last serviced my car and pointed out that the trailing arm bushing had seen better days to make a warranty claim for me.
  20. VFR
    Hi Phil. Can you tell me a little more please about the rear trailing arms issue you had and just what was wrong.. Was it the bushings that needed changing as if they changed them under warranty that is good to know.
  21. VFR
    Yes my thoughts as well, spray down the sides then tap-tap and hope it pops out
  22. VFR
    I wish his garage was in Devon.
  23. VFR
    Odds on (as has been said) that the slider pins are not working as intended. An easy fix if you have the tools etc but as you paid a “dealer” get them to sort it. A caliper in most cars has a piston only on one side, so that is doing the work to squeeze the pads onto the disc, it does though rely on the the sliders to exert the same squeeze onto the other side. Bit of friction, not sliding as they should, contamination, no correct grease etc etc & etc you have what the pictures tell us.

    I would not be happy with a reading that is over the full mark. Petrol & condensation building up ? , both of the things that engine oil does not like and can lead to engine failure. IMO
  25. VFR
    I do not think so as I am amazed at how many uninformed posters are on this thread. This will upset their apple cart (LOL) but will never be shown on the MSM
