  1. alright mATE, I DONT THINK IT IS THE MATS. I HAD MY LEXUS FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS AND WANTED TO SEE WHAT IT WOULD DO ? I FLOORED IT AND THOUGHT IT MUST HAVE HAD CRUISE CONTROL, AS IT STAYED AT THE SAME SPEED. I TOUCHED THE BRAKE AND IT CLICKED OFF ! TRIED AGAIN AND IT PICKED UP SPEED, IN 4TH GEAR SO I TRIED CHANGING GEAR AND THE ENGINE ROARED, AS IT WENT UP INTO 5TH TETS IT OUT ON MORWAY, BY FLOORING IT HARD FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS AND SEE IF IT STICKS ?
  2. if i dont go with this one from the breakers has anyone got any other good contacts for parts? thanks mark
  3. hi can any one help ????? some little g** ripped off my passenger side wing mirror last night even though they were folded in and now it looks like i need to buy a new one! my local lexus dealer has quoted me £250+ VAT for a new mirror does this sound reasonable or does any one know how much or from where else i could get another. its for an IS200 sport thanks mark
  4. Sorry! there is a problem with the caliper or the slider. if the caliper is binding then the problem will increase with heat due to the disc getting hot. YOU MUST NOT DRIVE THE CAR untill this is sorted.....total brake loss can happen. This is not the end of the world just a bad start, do you have a shop that you can trust! fact is the car may need 1x caliper 1x pads 2x discs please heed the "dont drive" i know it's a pisser with a new car but this is a could "lose all example" ← hi thanks for that any ideas of the prices of all of that????? do you think it will be ok to drive the car to the garage? will have to find somewhere to help asap!!! why does it have to happen to me?!! thanks again mark ← which caliper is it you need................. *edit* seen you need drivers side, i have a caliper, but i need to check which side it is ← hi as i havent got a clue about cars i could make a guess that it will be on the front drivers but couldnt tell you anymore!! should i still get it checked over at a garage? and can i drive it there? how much am i lookin at paying for a caliper

  6. thanks for the reply!!! getting worried now as on the way home the front drivers wheel seemed to be smoking when i stopped. the juddering doesnt seem to start untill 10 mins of driving and probably when i reach over 30 mph not when im breaking. when i got out of the car the wheels seemed to be making a tingling sound. if i stop the car and leave it for a bit it drives away fine for about 10 minutes then starts again!! hope you can help?!!! mark p.s looking at other posts thought it might be the calipers if it is any ideas of how much it might cost to fix cheers
  7. please can anyone advise how easy it would be to install the sat nav, which comes as standard, in is200 navigator models to a is200 sport !!! is it a case of simply plugging in or wiring it up ?? in laymans terms can anyone talk me through it ?
  8. hi can anybody advise me!!! i have had my lexus Is200 for about 1 week and it suddenly started to have the same steering wheel judder problem mentioned ?? will having the balance checked sort this problem out or replacing the tyres?? please can someone help as i am really pi**ed off at the minute, as this never happened when i took it for a test drive !!!!! please help cheers mark
