New IS300h owner

[bmaarc]

Hello,

I’ve just got an 2016/10 IS300h with 76k km from a guy last week. It’s my first Lexus car and i can say that i love it, but i have some questions. 

- In 7k km i should do my service and i want to know what is replaceable on services?

- I have tyre pressure sensors but i can’t see the actual pressure on my screen. Is there Any problem?

- I have the 15MM Navi. When i try to open navigation it says “Can’t read data. Please contact the dealership”. I mention that the SD slot is empty. Is enough to put and SD card there with the Maps so it can work?

- When i try to connect to a wi-fi hotspot (from iPhone) i can’t type password. It opens the keyboard but i can’t type (pressing characters does nothing)

- I checked the car before buying on carvertical.com and the report says the km are 100% real. How can i be sure? There is Any change by going to le us dealership to confirm that?

- Is it there Any chance to still have Battery warranity?

- I signed up on Lexus link, added my vehicle but can’t do anything more? Should i see the dealership. 
The car seems to work pretty good with no issues and the hybrid system is absolutely amazing. Sorry for my bad english. Any advice would be a real help. 
Kind regards,

B.M.

I will try to answer your questions:

 

 - In 7k km i should do my service and i want to know what is replaceable on services?
I assume it will be the equivalent of 50k miles service which is just the basic oil and oil filter changed and cabin filter if required.
You can refer to:
Maintenance Schedules - All Models | Lexus Drivers

- I have tyre pressure sensors but i can’t see the actual pressure on my screen. Is there Any problem?
I think only the 2017+ models came with the TPMS pressure display.  For 2015+ models you can buy the TPMS display module which is what i have done.  Its a plug&play kit.  Have a look on eBay/AliExpress.

- I have the 15MM Navi. When i try to open navigation it says “Can’t read data. Please contact the dealership”. I mention that the SD slot is empty. Is enough to put and SD card there with the Maps so it can work?
You are missing the microSD map card, you will need to obtain this for either lexus or 3rd party Toyota/Lexus map sellers online, but they usually sell updates which assumes you have the maps to start with.  Best to speak to Lexus and see what  they say.

- When i try to connect to a wi-fi hotspot (from iPhone) i can’t type password. It opens the keyboard but i can’t type (pressing characters does nothing)
Cannot comment on this i have never tried.

- I checked the car before buying on carvertical.com and the report says the km are 100% real. How can i be sure? There is Any change by going to le us dealership to confirm that?
If the car had a blocker on it you will never know.  Its possible that if you have access to the TechStream software you could look at several ECU to see  if mileage is stored in more than one place.  But it will be difficult to prove.

- Is it there Any chance to still have Battery warranity?
Assuming you mean the Hybrid Battery?  If you have the Hybrid Health Check carried out by Lexus every year they will cover you upto 15 years on hybrid components, battieries are classed as consumables not covered under warranty unless its horrible failing in which case the hybrid health check would inform you.
