  1. I had an early 90's 2.9 Granada that hit a bad pothole one morning going to work and had to be towed into work to find the inertia switch had triggered...
  2. As you say modern electronics are probly more sophisticated than the 90's cars. I looked in the handbook and can't find anything about this. I was more used to working on cars with points and plugs and carbs. Electronics is over my head.
  3. I mean the switch that cuts power to the petrol pump in a crash so petrol is not spraying everywhere. where I live there is really bad potholes and im expecting this to trigger the inertia switch and I have no idea where it is. This happened me in my first injection car back in the 90's and had to be towed in to work early one morning only to find this switch had triggered and only needed prest in for the car to start... I think all injection cars have this kind of switch now...
  4. Do any of you lads know where the Inertia switch is on my IS250? Thanks
  5. I did away with my pollen filter and my windows clear so much faster. no need for it unless you live in a dusty place...
  6. Its a real pain I used to be able to suck some out for my lawn mower. I now haf to remember my petrol can or its a 10 mile drive to get some, its worse now this new petrol goes off so quick...
  7. I removed all the engine bay covers when I got mine and left them off. They don't do anything other than be in the way when you want to do anything...
  8. Mine was £360 last year. Just got my renewal letter and it's £395 this year...
  9. Road tax up again. £395 for a year really getting out of hand. Wouldn't mind so much if it was spent on repairing our roads that are in a dreadful state...
  10. I know the feeling, I'm finding it hard to do my own repairs now but, don't know any local garages I would trust as I've always done my own.
  11. I fitted a recon which cost just over £300 well over a year ago and have had no problems so far... Brand new Denso £ 180??? Don't think so. Online fake Denso I wouldn't trust anything online. A good quality recon 1 cost me over £300 from Moterfactor.
  12. Brand new Denso £ 180??? Don't think so. Online fake Denso I wouldn't trust anything online. A good quality recon 1 cost me over £300 from Moterfactor.
  13. Does our IS250 have Canbus? If so can anyone explain what it is and how it makes them easy to steal...
  14. After the problems you have had I would buy one from Lexus or the local motor factor, rather than the rubbish you get on Amazon...
