  1. Not usually, it should work on light stretching. If you burn your skin it will shrink, a blister will appear to compensate because there is moisture underneath. On leather there's no moisture. But has mentioned, it depends on the type of surface coating, if it is a plastic based coating, may do the opposite.
  2. A cheap alternative to try is to iron the seat with a thick paper or a cloth in between (no direct contact with the iron), starting with low heat, then medium , then hot,few seconds at the time, checking frequently until creases go. But only works on real leather and depending on coating. And saddle soap for cleaning, wash with a damp sponge, rinse with a clean damp sponge or cloth and let dry naturally.
  3. Many thanks Ken, wouldn't expect a "good Scotsman"? to sign anything straight away! 😂 Is your 450h Sonic gray with tan interior?
  4. Hello Ken, How did the VIP event go? Anything interesting to report? Cheers!
  5. Hi Ken, Strangely enough I have also being thinking of soon changing from a march 22 450h premium plus but I remember testing a sport and finding the seats uncomfortable and wondering if the takumi seats are as comfortable as my current seats. Also it would be interesting to hear from you after the visit, regarding any deals, part exchange, delivery time, etc. Many thanks and good luck!
  6. Quite honestly I can't see the point of having an estimate of, with or without A/C. A small difference with no real value. I would rather know the difference between the estimated and the real range.
  7. On my new Lexus app it shows ev range 49.8, with a/c 47.3 Fuel range 156 Total range with a/c 144.2. It cannot count !?
  8. A similar strange thing happened when I took my car in for the last recall. In the morning I left the car with 206 miles of petrol plus around 25 electric, when I collected it p.m. it showed 103 plus electric, so complained but no solution. I tried to start the ice in case it needed resetting but no difference, the petrol milage went down accordingly. Next time I filled up with £20 it went nearly full, so obviously the missing milage reappeared? (We are ither alone or not alone......)
  9. Many thanks Malcolm, that makes sense and would work.
  10. Thanks, my problem is, if I replace the run flat, how do I get around the fact that there's no spare tyre?
  11. Is there a get me home tyre for a nx450h in Michelin Cross climate? Or a good alternative?
  12. Apologies for delayed reply, 79/80% of the time it takes me nearby, I.e. at the back of an estate with no way through to my destination, or through long narrow lanes, or round and round in circles. Once I set it for Guildford from Torquay and wanted to take me there via London. Mentioned to Lexus, did an update but still problematic. The software is similar, on start sometime I loose all my settings, I.e. radio, heating, etc.,sometime the seat pulls back/forward to exiting/ entrance, sometime it doesn't, the head up display keeps getting lower, sometime the app doesn't connect, sometime cannot preheat the car, plus various others. Again reported at service, promised a reset/update but still the same. I was promised wireless Android by the end of 2022 but still no clue as to when available. Hence my disappointment with Lexus!
  13. Lexus sat nav is a total nightmare, I now use only Google. Very unacceptable from Lexus, including their software!
  14. Thank you all ,it worked a treat, so easy! (When you know how)
  15. My left hand side mirror use to dip downward when in reverse, but since the last service, it now moves outwards, which I don't like because I cannot see the side of the car. I have tried to change it back but cannot find how. Anyone knows how to change it, please?
  16. I agree that Clarkson likes to exaggerate everything and tries to shock, but I tend to agree with the two main messages that come out of the article. One is that it drives very quiet, comfortable and economically and the other is that the tech and software is very complicated and generally not very reliable. I have similar feelings in my experience with the car. IMHO Anyone else agrees?
  17. Thank you all, have tried most of the recommendations and as said, not an easy exercise. Lexus insurance not very helpful. Will have decide soon, thanks again.
  18. Anyone can recommend a good reasonable insurance for a NX450H, thanks.
