    I took delivery of my 350h at the beginning of Feb and noticed a rattle, noticeable at low speeds, coming from the drivers’s door in my view. It went in to the dealer yesterday and the technician also thought it was coming from within the door. Turns out it wasn’t the door but one of the panoramic roof brackets. They packed it with felt and re-torqued it and all is now silent again.😬

    Dave2951, Just for info : if you download the PDF and open it in a PDF reader, you can search for key words which makes finding things very easy.😊

    My NX 350h order was September, delivered January and the reference was KG3911 so it looks as though the second letter is sequential (G: Sept, P: Dec, Q:Jan) but the 4 numbers don’t give any useful information.

    Hi @ElenaNX. The colours are exactly the same. Lexus universal paint code is 6X4. The name is Nori Green in the US and Terrain Khaki in the UK.

    Definitely not dealer fault. Mine arrived at the dealership on 28 January but the system was still showing a delivery date of 22 February! The Central System is not world class!, unlike the cars 😬

    In the UK it was always Terrane Khaki when I got my UX. But in the US it was Nori Green. When talking to dealership staff they tend to talk about Nori green so I have followed suit.

    Picked up my NX 350h Takumi in Nori Green with Cream and Black Trim late this afternoon.😬 I will get some interior shots over the weekend.

    It was £1.94 to change from UX to old NX from now until mid May (plus £15 admin). No complaints from me!😬

    Thanks for the comment John. already done so on the policy document: 😬 “The description shown below for XXX is the closest match we have to your vehicle. When our database has been updated, we'll send new documents and let you know if the price changes.”

    My 2020 UX was my first experience of RF’s in 42 years of driving. I have done 12500 miles on them and have been perfectly happy with them. My added bonus is that no spare gives more boot space.😬

    Spent 29 minutes on the phone to my current insurer trying to insure my NX 350h Takumi that I am picking up later today. The 2022 NX is not yet on their system. The underwriters told the advisor to put it in as a 2021 NX 300h and that they will revise the price and update the policy when the vehicle is on their system. Glad I rang them before getting the car rather than when I was at the dealer…..

    I tracked mine from Nagoya, to Singapore, to Suez Canal, to Alexandria, to Livorno and then to Portbury near Bristol. It was on a ship called Porgy. All the details you need can be found in the 115 pages of this thread on the GR Yaris forum. It was great fun but drove my wife mad! https://www.gr-yaris.co.uk/forum/threads/list-of-vehicle-carriers-in-transit-to-europe.995/page-115

    In this situation I would, for the first 3 years, rely on Lexus Care to provide a replacement car while a tyre is sourced, and / or to take me and my family to our destination. It is not something I would worry about.

    My vehicle appeared automatically in the App at the same time as I got an email from Lexus confirming that I had made an order. Strangely though, it only said “NX” - no model details or engine details or Transmission details. The progress of the order in the App also lagged behind the automatic emails sent from Lexus advising it in build, left the factory etc. If it doesn’t appear, and you don’t get emails from Lexus, perhaps ask your dealer to get Lexus UK to do it manually?

    This is a superb technical video by Melissa O’Connell from Nothside Lexus taking you through the whole Profile setup, with step by step instructions. I will be playing it again when I pick up my NX 350h later this week. Hope it helps.

    Hi Elena, Unfortunately the App didn’t show the build at all. The first information I received was when it had left the factory. I think my order details were not fully entered into the app.
