  1. Thanks Paul For that Technical Information...It does seem that The complexity of the Canbus system Is in itself a Major weakness To protect Our Cars .The ethernet cable system seems better and more secure albeit somewhat..The problem delves into Ad-En- Finitum in Ways to counter approach This Major Weakness In My opinion.. Hope lexus takes on Board our real concerns for Future Models..Ghost Immobiliser seems the only logical and scientific road to Go Down....
  2. Would it Not be possible to Deal With This Canbus Security problem With A Software Upgrade or Does this require additional Work done to the car at the Dealership If This indeed Possible..!!
  3. Would agree with that Would agree with that Alan ..The relax Warranty has in my opinion been very successful ..After all where else would you get that kind of service/warranty This was financially well thought out by Lexus...And proved a great success...!!! However ( Touch wood ) have never used it yet so We Will Wait With Trepidation that it is fit for purpose....!!
  4. Colin.. They have a Dedicated Lexus Trauma Doctor at All A+E Departments However They only need to work 1 Day A Year..Thought you would have known That..!!!! Always Always Park Alongside Class cars..But You Knew That...!!!
  5. Personally.. I Would RIGHT IT OFF As The biggest Humungous Mistake in Your Life Because There not going to give you back your money and all it would do is give you and your Dear lady Stress Stress and More Stress...I Know you are saying well Its not really Bothering us Now but in Reality IT IS...!!!! its Like insurance companies They are Quick to Take your money but if you need to make a claim They will Sit Down go through your insurance documents Particularly your answers to see how they can weasel out of paying up...In Reality After Reading all your efforts to get some or part of your money back THE ONLY CHANCE lies with Watchdog Why Not Contact One of the Research Executives working within the programme and see what they can do for you.. Unfortunately That in my opinion is your Only Hope..
  6. Poundy... Tell me More about This service Video..!!!!!!!
  7. john.. It Seems That if you are a Loyal Customer with Saga and dont have any claims they treat you more Favourably Than a customer who they don,t know .I,m With saga and have been for many years and my Price each year has been Reasonable..do Haggle though.!!!! Think There car insurance is underwritten bu Liverpool Victoria Who Appear quite good to deal with if you have a claim Stay well away from Churchill....
  8. Exactly Paul I Was Fined £100 And Got 3 Points On My licence for doing 40MPH Just within a 30MPH limit When i went to pay it I Bumped int to a Barrister who said YOU TOO...
  9. Its The Destruction Manual Dave Thats The Problem LOL ...Must check mine !!!!
  10. Sadly.. It Is At Times of Great Loss we Realize just how Much Our Lives Hang In The Balance And our Health can Change in A Heartbeat..I Only Knew John For about a Year But Found him Inspiring Very Knowledgeable And Quick Witted But Most of all A Kind and considerate fellow...You Will Be Sadly Missed my Friend..God bless you and Till We Meet again..Condolensces to his Wife Margaret and Indeed all The Family..R.I.P
  11. Graham... The Most Effective position for this Milenco Steering wheel lock is to position it vertically between the middle struts which cover the wheel controls on the left if you know what i mean..This makes it much much harder to dislodge This is how i ALWAYS put mine on..Hope that helps...Ps this is how it shows you how to put it on But Its not the best nor the most secure way.!!! btw It fits like a glove vertically and is still clearly seen...!!!
  12. That Is Horrendous especially coming from a Lexus Dealership..I Would forward a copy of this message to the principal Executive Responsible for the overall Area Management of this Garage And make him Aware of the treatment you have Encountered..Don,t accept this Kind of Behaviour.. It Falls short of the Policy and Established Rules of service which all dealerships must Uphold....I Would go straight to the top..!!!
  13. Yes Rob.. I See What You Mean...B******Ds ...Make sure your CCTV Alerts you when someone coming close to your car..Another thing Rob Get signs saying( Beware Of The Dogs ) Who Cares You Only Have Muffy a Little Toy Poodle..That can also be a Deterrant.. Bring back The Birch I say For these Nutscums...Oh I Can Hear The Goody Goodies saying Oh You Cant Do That..Worked in the isle of Man Only 2% Crime rate when that was Administered..
  14. Rob CCTV On your drive or wherever you park your car particularly at night 24/7 Which alerts you on your mobile phone that someone is near your car is the Answer...Believe me I KNOW whenever somebody is within the close proximity of my Car !! When parking during daylight at say car parks Be observant and watch for anything remotely suspicious and put on a steering wheel lock ( I use a Milenco which is ONE of the best As a Deterrant.. Only Other deterrant When out is Keep Croccy ( The Crocodile ) In The back of your car.. But Think Seriously About CCTV
  15. I Would be Very careful here Steve !!!! Sounds a Bit odd .Never Heard of this Company..Could be a clever way of getting Your personal Data...There are some clever scammers out there..My Advice Stay well clear.!!
  16. Totally Agree With You There Alex If a Professional Car Thief Targets Your car ..ITS OFF !!!!!!!
  17. Me-thinks Your Right Malcom They all Fish In The same Pond.. Lexus car insurance just quoted me £588 Today But My Renewal is not due till June so price might (Will Probably ) Change.. checked go-compare site but Aviva nor Saga who i,m with just now are not on it..Strange..!! Cheapest on that site was £382 from the Sooty and Sweep insurance company...
  18. Malcom.. Just been on to Lexus car insurance and they tell me there is no club Discount for members Of the Lexus Owners Club..I Would have thought That They Would have been the FIRST on The list..Absolutely Shocking They are not offering Lexus Members This incentive to Insure with Them... What do you Think ?
  19. Many Thanks for that information Malcom..Will Probably Give them a try I Think..!!! But Will Depend on the Sheckles..!!!
  20. Go to You-Tube chirag I,m Sure you will get the answer there and what to do to restore this function..Sorry i havent got H U D on my car..
  21. Have you heard how they actually perform Andy..Was Thinking of trying them this Year..Like the fact that in the unfortunate event of an accident your lexus goes to the nearest dealership for Repairs..!!! Well Hopefully...
  22. TONY.. I Have also Pondered This very Question And I Am still undecided..These trackers are all well and good but there usefulness is Questionable Ie How accurate they are etc which is dependant on the technology to recover your car hopefully in one piece..Once the scumbags get your pride and joy the outcome is in my opinion very poor And once you get it back Well.. Its just not the same car..I Would much PREFER to do all possible Things to make sure It don,t go Missing in the first place IE. Car Immobiliser, Secure Steering wheel lock. CCTV At Home watching over your vehicle 24/7 And both key fobs being kept in Faraday Pouches Particularly at night..I have the Milenco steering wheel lock.. Its One of the best..Have a look at it..Keep in mind The grand Majority Of These Social Outcasts Retrobates Of Society who steal cars are Opportuinists But If A professional thief wants your car Tony Its OFF..So be vigilant of who is walking past or driving past your House and drive Regularly Because the professionals are well organised and assess the risk..Just make it too difficult for them to Whisk Your Car Away./.
