  1. My DCM update XGG78 was performed in January at my 12m service and I haven’t noticed any problems since.
  2. Thanks. Makes sense that I never got offered it then!
  3. @robby666 what was the £500 for? I ordered my NX 350h in September 2021 and received the car in Feb 2022 but never heard of a goodwill payment for 2021 orders.
  4. Thanks….. and I always call the colour Nori Green Pearl - this is what they call it in the US and I think it sounds much better than Terrane Khaki Metallic!😜
  5. Congratulations! I have had the NX350h Takumi in the same colour combination for 13 months and 12k miles. I love it!😬
  6. Alex, are you saying that putting your iphone face down works on the 2022 NX phone charger? The problems all relate to the latest NX. Is your charger manufactured in 2020?
  7. Thanks John. Their Tyre finder doesn’t recognise the ‘new’ (over 12 months old now!) model NX Tyre search by size shows no self seal tyres available for the 20 inch NX.
  8. Thanks for that Brian. Very interesting video. I had no idea they existed. I will do the research. As @NiCoRe said, I expect there to be limited choice in the 20 inch tyres. I did see somewhere else that people were fitting 245 wide rather than 235’s so that may be a possibility.
  9. Mine were fitted in January 2022 so I would not be surprised if Lexus found a fix for it. Pity they can’t fix all the other niggling issues!🤪
  10. Maybe they did in the end. I haven’t tested my DAB.
  11. My Lexus Dealer refused to fit a rear Dashcam due to the number of people who had complained that it interfered with the DAB. I asked them to do it and said that I would be happy to lose DAB reception as I don’t listen to the radio often. Of course, I was happy to put this in writing so there was no danger of me ever logging a DAB reception complaint. If I sell the car I will pass that info on - a new owner may want to ditch the camera to get perfect DAB.
  12. I am guessing it would not be easy to source if it had gone flat Andy. We were travelling on a Sunday and the earliest anyone could offer fitting was late Wednesday for one and Thursday for the rest. I guess if it was flat we would have to be recovered by Lexus Assist and driven to our destination unless a local Lexus Dealer or Tyre company near Oxford had one.
  13. I hadn’t heard of self-sealing car tyres Brian and I was thinking i had some time before considering what to replace all 4 run flats with! No point in having a mixture of run flat and non run flat I think?
  14. I have an NX 350h with 10.5k miles on the clock. I travelled 460 miles to Scotland last week and 80 miles into the journey noticed a nail in my tyre As it is near the edge I realise it can’t be repaired. (Interestingly Bridgestone are one of the few tyre manufacturers that allow repairs by Bridgestone authorised repairers - but you still have to follow the rules about areas that can be repaired - and mine doesn’t qualify). I drove the remaining 380 miles with no issue as there was no loss of pressure. I then ordered a replacement. There was a 4 day lead time for most fitters and most quoted over £ 290. Asda tyres were the cheapest I found and they quoted £ 284 fully fitted. I have no qualms about paying out the money as it is a safety issue, but I am a bit horrified by the cost. I knew I could save over £100 per tyre by going to non- run flats but I do like the ability to drive after a puncture rather than carry a space saver or a compressor + goo.
  15. I will be interested in the auto-dimming digital rear mirror as I use it during the day but have to revert to the glass mirror at night. It would be nice if the auto-dimming mirror was able to be retro-fitted.
  16. Have you checked the child lock switch on the door edge?
  17. I only have the dimming when wearing polarised glasses on the HUD. Not the main display.
  18. No problem with fading and I have done 10k miles, a lot of it in sun. I do agree with HMT that polarised Sunglasses make it appear faded.
  19. I had same message after recall work as well. Ignored it and not seen again.
  20. I can’t help with your problem Phillip but I am on 16.3 for my iphone and iPad and my iPad login is working fine so I don't think it is a universal problem for all users. Hope you get it sorted soon.
  21. My right windscreen washer stopped working a few months ago. Took it to the dealer and they said that the Y-shaped splitter valve had failed. They ordered the part and it took 10 minutes to fit. Shame that the two visits meant over 100 miles of travel for me to and from the dealer.
  22. Same here this morning as it was -5 overnight. Kept my fingers over the drivers door pad for a minute and then it opened normally.🤗
