  2. Problem solved at an indy garage (cancelled Lexus look and see) Driver's side calliper not retracting and constant pressure on pad causing major damage. Refurbished calliper ordered £150, plus Indy's time plus two new pads and labour £145=£295. Since lockdown I have not driven the RX as much so calliper had rusted on one pot. Thanks for all your advice guys...!
  3. Hi thanks for your comments and it is true what you both say, if it was a wheel bearing I would take it to an independent no worries. But the electric motor is at the front, by the wheel....... I'm letting Lexus report. I have my yearly services done at Lexus Bristol and my Hybrid Health check as well. Which supposedly covers those components, after it is completed, not an expert in this area so happy to see what is diagnosed! Then maybe take it to an independent after for repair if it is a bearing.
  4. Hi On Sunday went for a long drive in my RX450 2010 model and noticed a slight scraping coming from the front... As I got closer to home one and a half hours later it was very noticeable, quite worrying! I have contacted Lexus Cardiff and it is in for Wednesday, for an "investigation" £140.00 inspection charge, which is supplementary to a fixing the problem charge! I was also informed it is out of warranty, I have 88,000 miles on the clock...? Rather hoping it may only be a wheel bearing! Always had the services carried out at Lexus Bristol before, now in the Motorline group as Lexus Cardiff. Has anyone had a similar problem coming from the front wheel?
  5. Hi any think like this interior ......https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LEXUS-430SC/274714587576?hash=item3ff643f1b8:g:7agAAOSwTQxgO-Y3

  7. Hi on another forum site SC430, a discussion on comfort by increasing the stock 245/40/R18s to 245/45/R18s. Found their was an increase in comfort over rough roads, but a small difference in speedometer by a few mies an hour! Might be worth keeping the R18's and having 45 tyres? https://tiresize.com/speedometer-calibration/?fbclid=IwAR2hljNDMPBed7mpvAyMck5kxSBkmlL9MVsEi1d0WGl6Nd0MOuys4qUliOs
  8. Hi some advise please........ SC passed it's MOT with both front bottom ball joint dust covers leaking! Also the front wheel bearings worn, giving some movement on the wheel! What sort of price am I looking at to get it fixed please?

  10. Hi Welcome to the forum, good car with low vehicle tax👍 Mine is tucked up in the garage at the moment under SORN. Happy motoring🙂
  11. Vlad I had a really good chat with the lead Tech mechanic and we agreed a 3 flush method, based on Nick's posting on the SC forum. I asked for photos to be sent as the work progressed. It was a quite time in the workshop and as a regular customer of 20 years, with some other work of over hauling the brakes, it came in at under £200
  12. Hi Had my Transmission oil changed at Lexus Cardiff on my 2007 SC430, as preventative maintenance, flushed 3 times, milage 98,500. August last year! Nicnac is right, it is important preventative maintenance of your vehicle, manual only states inspect every 4 years/40,000 miles.
  13. Hi I contacted the chap selling that SC430 in 2018, here is my reply from him regarding the selling price!
  14. Hi Leslie, I thought that the Pebble Beach Edition was only made for the American market? Has it got a Pebble Beach metal logo on the side of the car and behind the gear stick?

  21. Hi Julie a lot of SC430's have a wing mirror problem, they should dip when you reverse. Mine are "jumping", caused by the plastic worm gears inside worn out, and slipping. Some people have purchased a second hand mirror assembly and removed the worm gears "if OK" and refitted in their mirrors to get them working. This thread mentions this common problem...https://forum.lexusownersclub.com/conversations/mirror-problem.4219/#convMessage-13515 If you adjust the mirrors and have the setting switch in the "middle position" it does on my car stop them moving.
