RXtoNX

Could it be when the headlights come on during daylight, assuming you have them set to auto? Sometimes, in bright sunlight, they will come on for a short time depending where the shadows are due to refraction caused by the sun. Of course, if set to auto the headlights will come on momentarily when going under bridges etc.

Actual achieved on the above 41.1 miles based upon journeys recorded in app, all in EV mode, of 36.3 miles plus 4.8 miles shown as left in battery. Last nights charge shows 48.0/44.1 Car 6 months old & covered 4600 miles

Last nights recharge shows 47.7/43.8 range. Recharge to recharge actual miles 38 v 43 predicted at previous recharge

Just prior to the 1st Covid lockdown one of the attendants on Eurotunnel, after we’d followed his instructions to close up the gap between us in the RX and the car in front, said to me “that’s the quietest car I’ve ever known - until you braked at the end!” I suspect that this is what you are referring to @Mobeam

Just a thought (I haven’t checked) but is there a setting on the NX which enables “walk away” lock and “walk to” unlock facility? The wife’s MX5 has this which I have disabled

Mine showing 47.5/43.7 this morning. Last trips recharge to recharge produced an actual 38 miles & previous ones 35-36 miles, even though the lower indicated miles after charging has never fallen below 42 miles 🤔

You are correct it has been asked before, although not specifically for Spain. See the link above (unless Spain is any different to the rest of the EU?)

Scroll to the bottom and swipe almost half way up. If the first page shows the words “your ave drivers score” swipe at that point. You can also toggle between week, month and year As I mentioned earlier, the app isn’t very intuitive

@Simon F other (fairly uninspiring) features of the app are after selecting “hybrid coaching” scroll down to the bottom of the overview page and you will see 1/6. Swipe from right to left and the other 5 pages of analytics will be revealed.

The app is not very intuitive. Try the following 3 steps 1. 2nd from left menu option at the bottom (3 lines on graphic) 2. Hybrid coaching 3. All trips Best to forget the score & comments re hybrid coaching, particularly if you are used to driving a hybrid car, it assumes that you are forever driving in utopian situations. If you are not used to driving a hybrid car there are many better tutorials on how to get the best from one elsewhere on this site and on the web.

Update, Tuesday’s trips updated today🙄, bizarre. I can’t see the version of the app Malcolm but it should be up to date since an update came through not too long ago. The glitch I reported yesterday only lasted for about an hour if that, so I assume that it working when you tried was just a timing issue. Not very convenient though if I was wanting to set the car to warm up a little at the point the app failed😟 The only use I find in the app is the ability to pre heat the car etc and the trip mileage, particularly for local trips, so that I can estimate the battery performance whilst running in pure EV mode. I am beginning to think that the issues I’m having is actually with the car updating the servers that run the app and is related to the fact that the car is usually garaged on my return to home, weak signal syndrome. The app usually “finds” the car quickly when I want to pre heat etc.

Last trip n the front of the app is still the one I completed last Thursday. Still nothing showing for Sat, Mon & yesterday. When I login to the app this morning I get a message saying they are having some issues once again, although it does load🙄

Exactly the same in the portal as the app re journeys Malcolm In fact the portal still thinks today is Fri last week 🙄

@Ken R The 3 journeys I completed last Thursday updated on the app this morning 🙄

👍 That’s the one

@RKaneMine was delivered back in Aug & I was one of the fortunate ones who had the charger supplied & installed FOC from Lexus. Lexus sub contracted British Gas for this but their normally supplied charger only communicates via mobile phone signals which, if you live in an area where the signal is hopeless like I do is a waste of time. In the end they changed it to an Easee One charger which communicates via WiFi, a much better option. The Easee One charger, I understand, is capable of charging at 22kwh which, although the Lexus will regulate this to the car’s charging speed of 7kwh, means that it will also charge a full EV car. @HMTThe charger installation doesn’t necessarily have to be connected directly to your fuse box. Mine is connected to the meter but to do this an isolator switch needs to be fitted inside the meter box with a further small box alongside (can’t remember the name of it) It leads to a neater installation if your fuse box in inside the house and the meter & box is on an outside wall of the house

Was this order placed at Ipswich Lexus? If so I am surprised by your comments since, after I ordered a 450h from there at the end of Jan 22, they kept me fully informed on progress via a telephone call every 2-3 weeks right up to the car being delivered to their premises late July

I haven’t experienced anything like that but wonder if the flashing hazards you suffered have any connection to an alarm condition Just a thought🤔

Not possible I’m afraid………..yet. In the words of Lexus around 12 months ago, “the ability to send destination route to car via the app will feature in a future update” 🙄 Don’t hold your breath😉. Best to just set the route using google maps before you get in to the car and use car play.

I’m still trying to understand why a bit of dirt/mud on the bottom of doors before the seal requires the interior of the car to be cleaned🤔. I always regarded the doors as part of the bodywork so I just wipe over the particular area of the subject matter whilst washing the car along with the bottom of the doors, which is surely a necessity on all cars. Do people really wash cars with the doors closed and ignore the door bottoms which are in the shut line of the car? Even the car wash gangs, on the rare occasion that I’ve used them, open the doors & wipe the bottoms.

My dealer agreed to match any other quote I could show them, although this was before I signed the purchase contract.

So in effect Lexus are saying that their cars are not suitable if you plan to leave them at an airport for 2 weeks whilst you go on vacation? Really 🤔, not in my experience🙄

I made the move last year for very similar reasons to yourself, although the decision was mainly driven by my wife who wanted a smaller car. She always found the RX to be a bit on the large size for the narrow country lanes around where we live. I would pretty much agree with your assessment after your test drive with the exception of your “a little slower” view, I find the NX450h a little quicker if you take it out of eco mode. The tech still has some limitations. Overall my preference is still the RX for the reasons which you state but the one big upside of the NX450h is the much better fuel economy, even in petrol only mode on long journeys. The 4cyl engine is not as refined as the 6cyl one in the RX but it isn’t far behind and is still much more refined than most 4cyl engines. However, the CV box does seem to be more refined over the 2018 RX we had.

@Kenny Barclay Ah, ok understood. I know that certain models will be capable of remote manoeuvring at some point in the future but the software for the app is not yet developed so thought that it what you were maybe referring to. The pre-heat on mine works fine but sometimes the command from the app can take a minute or so to show that the command has been recognised by the car
