Mossy's SC430

Fast.

Down past Dijon, thru the lovely Jura and via Lausanne, then follow the river to Sion. Then up into the mountain....Anzere.

The Jura........Poulet de Bresse aux vin jaune ( weird wine from Savagnin grape - Ch Chalon is great for cooking but awful to drink )

Got an estimate for air con regas here in Switzerland.

Hour and a half work?

Is that right?

[Bob King]

I would have said an hour to inspected , evacuate system, recharge and check for leaks.

some guys are old school and do it mostly by hand and experience ,others have a modern machine and it does the whole job once you plug it in.

    The recharge jobs I’ve had done in recent years ..two with modern machine and one old school…old school seemed more In-depth 👍🏻

[Mossypossy]

Quoted about 100chf....about £88.

Seems good!

[Malc1]

Seems good !🤔  …….. but if he finds any leaks or issues needing further remedy you might find a somewhat larger invoice coming your way 🤔😂

Good luck

You’re not been robbed at that price …fingers crossed it just needs a regas👍🏻
  

[Mossypossy]

He will ask before he does anything more.

Going in on Monday. Have to drive with roof down....no great hardship.

Only money! He says from his Swiss balcony...

Mine was low yet topped up okay .

if your car has been dealer maintained ..I bet the owner backed out of Lexus regarding  it on the cost 😮😮

[Mossypossy]

No mention in the sporadic service history.

[Bob King]

Could just be overdue then 👍🏻

My RX45O was £120 on top of the  service last year by Lexus.

[Mossypossy]

Good benchmark. 136 CHF is £120.

Nice little taster drive with the top down driving up the mountain roads. Sport mode engaged and luggage disgorged. Makes a difference!

Did see a drop top Rolls Royce that looked a bit silly.

[Mossypossy]

Very hot today. Roof down results in wet backs!

Aircon working again today, though it doesn't freeze yer nuts off.

 

[Mossypossy]

The perils of taking your Lexus out on the road. Think I got a little car park ding today.

Horror of horrors. Over it now, but it took a bottle of red.

"Little ding". I'm asking for my money back.

👿

[Mossypossy]

And I had to pay for the car park!

[Mossypossy]

And I saw the fecker who parked next to me at a jaunty angle!

What is one to do?

Just add it to the bodywork quote at a later date 👍🏻

You’ve done well so far considering the mileage you have done .

[Mossypossy]

Must say car smells very hot from outside after a hefty mountain climb...about 1000m.

Temp gauge remains on half way mark but boot is warm! Probs that massive silencer.

[Bob King]

Big exhaust box across the back of the car .

Is the silver heat shield still in place above the exhaust box ?

 

[Mossypossy]

Will have a look

[Mossypossy]

Big shield is there but has become loose. Noticed a rattle yesterday. Need to find a way to wedge it. 

Ball of tin foil has done the trick...for now.

How it is secured? All 4 corners have holes that locate over bodywork bolts but no actual fixings.
