Hi all, new to the forum and possibly new to Lexus, I am in the market for a used rx 300 as a second car and I have seen 2 candidates, a 2004se and a 2005se-L, they are similar money, the older s.e has about 25,000 miles less. I am really interested in the s.e-L for all of its toys, but I'm somewhat put off by the air suspension, as in its reliability worries me. The consensus points to it being fairly unreliable. So do I take a punt on the younger prettier one with air suspension, or the older but possibly more dependable s.e? Thoughts and experiences will be greatly appreciated. Lee.

Hello, A while back I had my headlights and foglight bulbs replaced with Osrams - that made quite a difference. I also replaced my boot lightbulbs with LEDs which helped too. Using LED 501's on my front sidelights has also made things brighter. I used 501 Ring Premium LED 12V W5W Canbus Wedge Bulbs. Q. Has anyone changed their side indicators ( 501? ) or taillights - which are not the same - i.e., different bulbs depending on which tail light?

Is it me? I can't find any MOT type details about this car - doubting my sanity. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2004-LEXUS-RX300-LOW-MILES-ONLY-65K-PX-WELCOME-/232020592581?hash=item36058147c5:g:qkcAAOSwdzVXj7Nm

UK 2016 RX450H F-sport
RozzaLex posted a topic in RX 300 / RX 350 / RX 400h / RX 200t / RX 450h Club
Hello All New owner ... I have attached some pics because I understand that is what new members do. Sorry about the quality but taken on an iPhone with the rose-tinted filter switched-off! Happy to answer any queries on any aspect of the car; most reviews seem to be very US-model centric and the UK models do deviate from the US-spec in quite a few areas so can give a UK owner perspective on the good, bad and indifferent bits of the car So it's an F-Sport, mica white, black leather, panoramic roof, HUD, Mark-Levinson sound, protection pack; I don't think there any other bits that could be added other than bits of trim cheers -
When my Satnav (etc) display dims, when the light conditions outside change... ... the Air Re-Circ and Heated Rear Windows Green light switches dim too, if they're on. How clever.

Hello, My RX300 has air suspension. It also has a Lexus Warranty. And I love it. But… Over the last few days, I’ve noticed it needs to pump-up at the back, when it’s been standing all day or overnight. And it looks lower to. More so than usual. I can also hear the pump cutting in occasionally when I am driving. I guess I’ll need to get it looked at, but I am still curious as to what others might think is the issue. ( I appreciate that remote-by-web diagnostics are not always the way to go, but I always appreciate the views of others!) PCM

On Saturday morning my wife volunteers for various good works - drives in HER RX. Two hours later, after giving her time to a needy older citizen she returns to her car. Back bumper on road, wires hanging off, scrape down the side. Someone said they saw a skip lorry edging past. Did the culprit leave any details? I think you can guess the answer... So... an insurance job it is. Lessons learnt: Keep all your insurance claim contact numbers, and a charged phone in your car, where they are easy to find. ( Had to go and rescue Mrs .C )

Does anyone have any thoughts please...? As of yesterday, when my wife ( or I ) opens HER RX 350 door, or closes it - it gives a short beep. It's only just started doing this... Odd.

Hi all, With all the various tinkering I've been doing with my Lex, does anyone know of or can recommend a box of of various common sized bolts/nuts for the RX? If the weather holds this weekend, I want to replace my transmission cooler tube assembly but due to previous crap mechanics and corrosion, most of the bolts that hold the plastic under tray onto the car are either missing or in a really bad way. Unhelpfully, Toyota in their wisdom decided to use various sizes of bolts for the under tray and it is proving painful looking each one up in the parts schematics, cross referencing the bolt part number with the electronic parts catalogue, then creating a list to either find each individual bolt online or buy from Toyota parts counter as they only sell them singly and aren't cheap for this sort of thing! Mechanics must be able to buy big kits full of fittings, so what can anyone recommend? Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone. I'm on the lookout for a 400h SE-L or Executive. Full service history and evidence of annual hybrid battery checks are a must. Dark colours preferred but not concerned about interior colour. Underseal would be a bonus. Please let me know if you are thinking about parting with your pride and joy!

I noticed today that my RX is slightly higher on one side at the front, by about 2cm. It's on a fairly fiat gravel drive. Is this normal? If not should my Lexus warranty cover it? Any thoughts most welcome...

Hi everyone. I'm looking for a well maintained and highly specced RX300. I'd be especially interested in a car that has had an LPG conversion. Anywhere within about 100 miles of Cheltenham would be fine.

Hello everyone, I need an advice on tyres. I have a 2008 RX 350 and I need a new set of tyres. Unusually car is on 17" wheel currently fitted with 235/60R17 102H tyres. I've been looking around for a good tyres that are quiet and handle good in dry and wet weather. I wouldn't mind downsizing to 225/60R17 99V/H as this is what this car should have had. I do not mind the cost or brand. I've checked all tyre review sites etc but opinions about the same tyre can vary from excellent to poor hence I cannot take it as a good source of advise. I would like to know what's your experience with similar, not necessary the same, tyres and can you recommend one or two tyre models. Please help! Thank you very much in advance.

Hi all, Just wanted to share the following two links that have proven to be really useful: Toyodiy site that lists part numbers for our RX components: http://www.toyodiy.com/parts/g_E_2003_LEXUS_RX300%7E330%7E350_MCU35R-AWAGKW_2.html Use the above site to find a part number you are interested in, then paste the part number (5 digits a "-" and more digits) into the search box here: http://toyotapartscatalog.com/lexus/ You'll be able to find exploded diagrams and related part numbers etc. Sorry if you already knew of the above but sharing for those who don't! Chris.

Hello, I have had my RX 400h for 18 months. It's a fantastic car. But in last few days a squeak can be heard when I slightly press down the brake pedal and I wondered if anyone can throw any light on it. It started shortly after I pulled away from an island and felt either the antilocks or the four wheel drive come on. Thanks Jason
