Electrical Smell in boot

[KayCee]

Hi All

Well i have had the GS450 8 months now and done 5k miles with not a hiccup apart from a slight electrical smell in the boot when opened dealer said its normal and nothing wrong but it is disconcerting does anyone else have this.

Just an aside i was in the multi car park in Doncaster and was going down the ramps to the exit when a bloke shouted at me " to switch engine on and dont freewheel down here you will lose brakes and steering just to save a bit of fuel You silly pill**k plus you will knock someone down"  i just couldnt say anything but must admit it did sound eery coming down silently especially in the multi car park i dont usually go to the high levels but couldnt get in on lower levels.

But i woiuldnt change it .

That's better than the usual senario of silently driving behind pedestrians walking on the roadway in supermarket car parks who are totally unaware of your stealth.

On a more serious note there should be no electrical burning smells in the boot, sounds like something is loose or arcing ask Lexus to perform a visual check.
