the immobiliser will not stop somebody dismantling your car. no issues with battery on my ghost - it is a passive device unlike a tracker (which is active even when the car is off)

There are some answers in this forum: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/nx-2nd-gen-2022-current/988134-dashcam-install-in-driver-side-fuse-panel.html I think in my Lexus they put it into the 15A socket (wiper)

my lexus-fitted dashcam (nextbase) broke after couple of months: more exactly - the hardwire kit failed (fuses just blew). they said it was due to some incorrect tracker / ghost installation (seems to come off the same fuse). anyway: I got a free hardwire kit replacement from nextbase, and the Lexus garage re-fitted the hardwire kit - for FREE. no issues with the ghost itself.

same here, safety kit is too big to fit under the boot cover. just sloppy design, not "takumi" (artisan) in my view 🙂

I have a airtag hidden in the car - it is quite handy even if you don’t use it as deterrent. Peter

no battery issue with my 350h. my understanding is that the ghost is a passive component which only springs into live once you start the car (unlike a tracker).

my scorpion tracker in my 350 hybrid gave me errors like "vehicle movement while battery disconnect", "movement while engine off". and every time this happens, you get an automated call. also, sometimes recorded journey - sometimes not (so the device was working fine for some routes, and then stopped). the installer came out 3 times to sort it ("can't connect to gps - device not pointing correctly", out or to "re-solder it" (apparently it is soldered in) - never made a difference. also scorpion couldn't find an issue with the device. when I requested a refund, I first had to chase the installer for a refund, and then scorpion track - which didn't want to refund the subscription cost (or just partial refund, because I already "had used the device for couple of months"). I just recommend: if you go down the scorpion route - don't do a life time subscription or like me a 3 year subscription.

Annoyingly - I only realized after I got my NX350h that the dealer didn't even include a boot liner (carpet) as part of my Takumi NX. anyway, I am trying to decide if there is a good aftermarket option or If I should go for the overpriced genuine ones. I wouldn't mind a rubber one. * PW241-78002 NXP2: this is the genuine rubber one. seems very expensive (£100) and looks very flimsy. in the USA they have a different boot liner which is much better plastic - but not available here (PT908-78220-02) https://lexuspartsdirect.co.uk/product/lexus-nx-phase-2-boot-liner/ * Genuine carpet: PT206-78225-50 NXP2 https://lexuspartsdirect.co.uk/product/lexus-nx-phase-2-boot-mat/. I couldn't find any picture how this actually looks, seems to have the logo on it. £80 * I had a look at these people, but the template they sent me does not fit at all: https://www.carmats4u.com/to-fit-lexus-nx-including-hybrid-2021-onwards-durable-rubber-boot-mat.html. any recommendations? Peter

I got it installed by these people: https://ghostinstallations.co.uk/ - no issues with the device. I also got them to fit a scorpion tracker which did not work at all, and I think is not compatible with the hyprid lexus.

Worth watching:

No issue with my iphone 13 pro max with case

finally some good news, ford fiesta is most stolen car and Cleveland is crime hotspot 😀 https://www.dailymail.co.uk/money/cars/article-12703479/Car-theft-hotspots-revealed.html

I think the requirements are min 8 characters, one number and one special character. the worst sb could do is to locate your car, lock your doors and start the flash lights.

I just got the error again and I think it happened because an update of the lexus link app on my iphone logged me out of the app.

interesting story - hopefully Lexus NX is not affected https://www.macrumors.com/2023/10/01/bmw-charging-may-break-iphone-15-nfc-chip/

I got a scorpion track 5 tracker fitted last week and it is not working properly with my hybrid (giving me battery disconnected alerts) I get the company back to rectify it. Seems it has to be fitted differently for hybrids - just something to be aware of.

I will be picking up my NX 450h+ (MY24) this weekend and when chatting to the dealer last week he said they have taken steps to prevent the wheel arch related attacks lol

my lexus is 350h Takumi 24 spec. puddle light is inside door handle (quite faint) and door

really? my 24 model has the puddle lights on the bottom of the (inside) door.

I purchased the stoplock pro elite for the nx 350h. it fits but not optimal, eg you are supposed to fit the lock between 2 spokes of the steering wheel - which is not possible due to the thickness of the spokes. so the thief will need to cut the steering wheel at only one location. also found fitting the lock every time a PITA. on the positive side - you can store the lock in the under boot cut outs without any problems.

Today after I entered the password, the profile sync error didn't appear anymore (after restarting the car). I enabled the setting in the app "keep me logged in" and changed the timeout to 12h. Maybe this fixed it. The other thing I can think of is that it can happen when you are in an area with poor mobile reception (rural england trip). But this would be a really bad bug in the system.

I have a pretty strong password and this stupid dialog box keeps on popping up every time I start the car

Ghost immobiliser is around £500 with fitting - no further payment

I actually realised today that my Takumi comes with puddle lights installed (only had the car for a week) 😀

Lexus Twickenham advised me that they would not issue any wheel nuts anymore - even though this was in the initial spec. Is wheel theft still a big thing and worth complaining?
