  1. My Lexus dealer removed my NX from Lexus Link+. I then added the car and re-registered my profile on the app and linked the keys to my profile. Everything now works as before - and amazingly all my Satnav favourites and recent journeys reappeared in Navigation.
  2. Today’s update Andy…. Car Location still working. Trip recording still not working. Connected services had reverted to off agin so I had to re-enable them and agree to terms & conditions again.😡 I assume that when I go out to the car tomorrow they will have turned off again!🤬 Takumi craftsmanship my A*rse!
  3. Just been out to the car. Went to Settings, Info and Security and noticed that all connected services are disabled. Had to enable them and agree to terms & conditions etc to restore them. Location of Car now shows up in Lexus Link+ and I expect my trips will now be recorded. Just need my traffic info to show on navigation screen now.😡
  4. I also note that I have lost the traffic flow information on the Satnav Map. Pre update as soon as I turned the car on I could see which roads were congested around me - even down to which side of the carriageway was slow (orange) or standstill (red). That has disappeared. In addition, Does anyone know what this symbol is? - The one with two arrows and a line through it? Maybe that is sating that traffic status doesn’t work? I have searched the manual and can’t find an answer.
  5. I would keep the booster in the main cabin so that if the battery is flat you have easy access to it. Otherwise you would have to put the rear seats down to try and access the boot.
  6. YES Andy, I have the same issue. No trips recorded and no current car location.🤬
  7. Knowing Lexus’s history with software, nothing could surprise me anymore…..
  8. Not sure how I can lose dozens of favourites and recent trips and you keep yours Alex!😡🤔
  9. Just installed mine. Took just over 20 minutes to download and install. Navigation screen looks like there is more detailed info on it. Unfortunately though, I have lost all my Navigation Favourites and recent trips. Even have to reset Home.
  10. Paid this twice already but did know it was coming😢😢 Just avoided it on my previous car - UX. Knew the NX would push me over the threshold but rationalise it as a cost of purchase. Doesn’t make paying it any easier though!🤬
  11. Yes, Colin, I do have a trickle charger I used to use for my motorcycle batteries on the basis that they were ridden infrequently. I wouldn’t expect to have to use it on a £50k+ car that is driven over 10k miles a year… In any case, my car is too far from the house to plug the charger in. As advised by the AA and others on these forums, I have been putting the car into ‘Ready Mode’ when hoovering the floor mats or loading / unloading the boot - something I have never had to do with any other car! I have raised the matter with Lexus again.
  12. I did the same as Neil and purchased the voltage meter for £6.49. After 2 x 20 minute drives yesterday it showed 11.8v. I took my multimeter and tested across the battery terminals and the reading was 11.94 so the device was showing .14v light. Today I again did 2 x 20 minute journeys. The battery voltage at the terminals is 11.96v. The voltage when charging is 14.4v I am concerned that a normal voltage for a fully charged car battery is 12.8v. Lexus had the car for a day last month after I had to call the AA out when the battery went flat sitting on my drive for 8 days over Christmas. Lexus said the battery is perfect and everything is working as expected and no unexpected drain occurring. I am interested to learn if anyone thinks this can be considered normal voltage for a supposedly ‘healthy’ battery?
  13. When I bought my UX in 2020 the Takumi was just over the £40k so I got the Premium Plus pack and safety etc. With the NX it was already well over the £40k so I went for the Takumi and love the extras that brought with it.😬
  14. This was covered in this thread last October - my experience is included having owned both cars. https://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/topic/145070-is-it-worth-buying-the-lower-version-of-the-350h/#comment-1311798 A further point - my annual Road Tax on the NX left my account today - £ 560😱 There is a surcharge included for the car having a list price of over £40k. My UX was just under the limit.
  15. Had my 4 door handles replaced in December and this morning it is -2 so I went out to check the doors. All 4 opened immediately!😬 This solves an issue I have had for the last 2 winters. Just the issue of the 12v battery dying now…… 🙄 scheduled to be looked at later in January.
  16. Had my doors fixed yesterday. Prior to that I had to use warm water on two occasions in the last few weeks. I put the warm water in a flask and took it with me in case it froze again at my destination.
  17. Had to go out with a jug of warm water yesterday. Service booked for 5 Dec and they ordered my replacement handles a month ago but can’t guarantee that the parts will be here in time. 🤞
  18. Just search for another destination and when selected it will ask you if this is to become a new destination or an interim waypoint (I’m paraphrasing what the actual words are). The time to destination shown is that of the first stop until you arrive. It works pretty seamlessly for us.
  19. I would expect any brand new set of tyres to be quieter than worn ones because there is more depth to the tread. Mine have 19000 miles on them and I think they have got noisier with tread wear. Again, it is anecdotal and subjective though.
  20. Tried it from the outside and got the same message that this vehicle doesn’t support Remote Park.
  21. No issue with mine (2022 NX 350H Takumi) as I used it yesterday and today. I am in line of sight of it and about 30-40 feet away.
