    My father in law had his Range Rover stolen and recovered within 48hrs like yours. His wasn’t marked as stolen recovered he just had the wheels refurbished owing to some kerbing and complete lockset changed. He was also insured by the manufacturers so hopefully be a smooth process.

    Surprised/not surprised they didn’t contact you immediately 🙄 Hope the outcome is as best possible for you matey 🤞🏼

    And that’s my biggest fear my wife will 100% cook the keys lol

    @Gsf grey solihull could it be?

    Great minds think alike, all 4 keys for 2 cars now in foil 🙂 Thanks for the CANbus explanation. I was aware what CANbus was just unsure how it was used for a theft. Is the headlight thing only for Lexus or most cars?

    I just tested both of my faraday boxes and neither of them are working anymore 😞 Anyone have links to boxes that work and keep working please?

    What is a "Canbus theft" exactly please?
  8. BillNick
    Oh dear so sorry to hear this. Very unusual for a performance Lexus to be targeted, difficult to do anything with on the black market too (one assumes). I hope the situation with insurance etc goes as smoothly as possible.

    Indeed, we are driving the entire B500 on our 3rd day. We head South from Stuttgart to pickup the bottom of the B500 to start heading North / North West back to the UK over couple more days.

    Wow that's a result for sure! I didnt even get offered a car 😞 I know I should have asked.

    Been watching this car for a very long time now. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202301253609836 Anyone know anything about it? Wondering why it won’t sell. Do you think it’s the colour scheme?

    I requested an RX at my last service and another customer decided to crash their demo the day before my service 😞 Or so they said.... ha Had an electric UX twice with Sidcup now. Complete polar opposite of my car, but there we go haha

    Gone already. Not surprised 👍🏼

    Indeed they are very dark, but if you zoom in, you can see against the black calipers that they aren't quite black.
  15. BillNick
    Did you change the colour of the alloys during your ownership? Looks like a colour I am considering - dark chrome? Most of the latest F Sport models across the Lexus range come is in this colour. I have a seen an Azure blue RX with wheels this colour, so I know it's going to look great on my RCF. If it was you, can you tell me where you got them done please?
  16. BillNick
    Exactly, under the circumstances and spec of your car, they should've arranged a weekend demo for sure.
  17. BillNick
    Given you were without a car (unplanned) Friday night to Monday, a courtesy car should have been arranged and you shouldn't have had to ask....!

    Part No: PW022-00032 now discontinued Just wondered if anyone had it in their boot and willing to sell? For reference, here is the Toyota version on ebay which I will revert to purchasing should nobody want to sell their Lexus version... Thanks all Bill

    Def not butter soft discs - they're OEM! ha Like you say, its lip service for the video to make it look like they're actually checking when they are not.
  20. BillNick
    Got the car back, no smell of petrol in the car as someone here reported. They said it took him all day as I asked them to balance my alloys too but they ran out of time. So perhaps he was new. In that vehicle safety check video they do, he says "slight lip on your discs, but in good working condition"..... I have to laugh as I fitted those brand new on Sunday so they are 4 days old LOL.

    Basically I want the bigger screen to lift the car closer towards the later models and upon doing some research I thought I might aswell introduce capability to install other apps, not just Apple CarPlay.
  22. BillNick
    Well it was the receptionist that told me they would need the car all day, seats out etc so.... I guess 6-8 bolts for both pieces of the rear seats then onto the fuel pipe. Could be 1.5-2hrs in theory.
  23. BillNick
    Dropped mine off this morning. Its an all day job, they do the replacement from above so all rear seats come out.
  24. BillNick
    I remember this car, you bought it about 3 weeks before I secured the cash to buy one myself. Would have been mine if not. A very good example and like the wheels a bit darker - nice!
  25. BillNick
    Just out of interest, did you have to stipulate that your car is RHD for the headers? Or are they all the same anyway? Shame its not for RCF, I would imagine they are not transferable.
