I discovered that the pressure in one of my tyres was down to zero due to a nail. I was pretty angry because I expected the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) to be working. And then to discover that in UK at least, they are not installed/activated (after trawling through the manual then confirming with Lexus servicing). How can you have run flat tyres without TPMS??
Now I'm looking for a way to buy a receiver for the TPMS system, because it looks like the sensor valves are fitted. Will have a chat with servicing ASAP to see what can be done.
As an aside I was surprised that Lexus servicing would consider repairing the puncture, as most tyre specialists would go straight for a replacement tyre.
Ct200H Vs Rx400H
in Lexus CT 200h Club

We went from RX400h SE-L to CT200h SE-L Premier.
And we really miss the RX!! :(
Good bits of CT vs RX:
New generation hybrid drive system- EV mode, nicer gear selection, sport/eco modes
13 speakers- the sound system is improved with Bluetooth connection to Iphone
SatNav no longer locked when moving
Easier to park
Bad bits:
Seems to be more road noise
Obvious things like less space
Suspension too harsh for my liking, I like the floating sofa ride in RX
SatNav screen is a slightly too small
Lexus doesn't seem to have lavished same the level of luxury on the CT, which isn't surprising given they are at opposite scales of their range. For example only the driver side is electric (at least for UK models).
