cool that sounds a decent and obvious thing to try. thnx

No idea what it is. if it is condensation, then is there a way I can sort this out?

I drive a 2001 IS 200 SE. I got this problem with the Lexus Parking Sensors. Whenever it rains, and I put the car in the reverse gear, the parking sensors start beeping (a continuous beep)as if I am about to bang into something. I went and wiped the sensors but still the same result. However after it stops raining and gets dry, its starts operating normally (regular beep depending on the distance). It is just one of the sensors on the back side as when I use it I can hear the other sensors working properly, but cant figure out which one. This problem is new and has started since the last month or so. Any advice would be highly appreciated. -JJ

Hi The name is Juned though everyone calls me JJ Bought a Lexus 3 months back and its the best purchase I have made. Am 30 yrs old and a Product Development Director with a Media Entertainment Technology company and we build software for mobiles and PDAs Love cars and one among my favourite vehicles which I had was a 1942 World War II Ford Jeep (do they call it Jeep anymore ??), which was mostly a weekend vehicle. In between had a few cars but i think the Lexus beats all of them. When I bought this I had thought of a BMW but better sense made me get the best car. Looking forward to being here....

Thanks for all your replies.. GUess I will have to do the same though its a shame that such a lovely car has this niggling problem

Hello everyone. I am sort of new here. Purchased a 51 SE recently which had done 18k miles and is a fantastic car except for one thing. When I open the roof (even when the just the cover is open and glass is closed) a strange tinkling noise is produced from somewhere near the centre light unit. Strangely enough it goes away when I close the cover. Its really irritating and i can't drive the car peacefully if I leave the sunroof open. Does anyone know any solution of this problem? I asked the previous owner and he said something about some wire being loose and the dealer too wasnt able to do anything about it. PLEASE HELP!!! Thanks in advance for your help.

I had been to see this car. Gearbox was a total mess. There was the now infamous judder going from 1st to 2nd and from 2nd to 3rd was more like banging metal against metal. I would say the seller got a good price
