  1. Showing as standard fit items on the comparison tool on the website on the base model but not on the F Sport design It's been wrong before though which adds again to the confusion
  2. its usually set to LO so they can test the temperature of the air and tell you it needs a regas. And of course, charge you healthily for it
  3. Well yes, I gathered that But it also doesnt appear to have the 10 speaker sound system, the electric tailgate, puddle lights, Lexus Link pro..... So its missing some items from even the base UX The Lexus specifications are a bit complex and unusual.
  4. I don't think they come with the owners manual as standard but the printed versions can be requested Dealer might have done this for you already
  5. Worse case scenario most likely. It's a Lexus approved bodyshop and I suspect they think there's more damage underneath than what it looks like on the surface. Who knows, might be back in a week
  6. Thats probably because they don't want an F Sport design essentially becoming an F Sport that's cheaper to purchase maybe?
  7. Same issue with most manufacturers actually. VW can't supply engine covers for some cars and all faulty parts are on back order for atleast 6 months Mercedes is still struggling to get cars out altogether and have made spec changes to accommodate BMW have done the same. Just be patient, they'll turn up at some point. On a side note I don't think manuals come with the car anyway. Paper copies need to be requested and PDF versions are available online anyway.
  8. It's just an appearance package with a few extra bits on top of the base package. It's not an F Sport so has keyless entry missing amongst a few other bits
  9. Bottom left corner should be a few buttons to click on when hovering over with the arrow. Can show street names, time to destination or arrival time
  10. Just as an update, the RX is going into the bodyshop on 19th september for 2 weeks. They anticipate it may take less time than that but thats the worse case scenario I will be provided with a hire care from enterprise courtesy of LV during this time. Apparently the same size / class of car so who knows what I will get.
  11. You can't mute the radio volume when reversing. I'd suggest you increase the parking sensor volume
  12. Its probably just the tyres different tyres make different noises. Different tyres of exactly the same tyre brand and model make different noises sometimes too.
  13. Which company is it? TBH all of the companies have poor reviews including admiral but they've been OK for me. I wouldnt discard a company based solely on reviews. At the end of the day, you get to choose your bodyshop and I generally just take it to the bodyshop that Lexus use which makes things much easier. Yes may cost £200 extra excess but its small change compared to going through the crap that insurer bodyshops give you sometimes
  14. The MOT will only really check if it's aligned and to ensure its not too high. If it's low they don't usually bother too much about it
  15. The lights should be adjustable. Yes they're self levelling but the parameters can be changed by the dealer hopefully. Some cars have the hex screws for adjustment. Put them upwards on my Merc with no issues. It also has self levelling LEDs. Just spend some time under the bonnet
  16. Glad the deliveries are coming through. I still can't fathom why people still collect their car on the 1st of September / March. Its almost always rushed and jam packed to the point where if someone is late, it gets delayed. These problems don't occur on the 7th for example.
  17. Take the article with a pinch of salt. There'll be a V6 hybrid sure. But I'm also sure there's some talk of a twin turbo V6. It's too early to make any concrete suggestions on powertrains
  18. Diluted APC with a cloth followed by a leather / vinyl sealant you honestly do not need to do it excessively. I would aim for once every 6 months or once a year if the car gets light use. Ive had instances using leather cleaners where they remove some dye from the surface on lexus leather / vinyl so I stick to APC now which seems to be much more friendly.
  19. Im going to quote myself because I thought I should update you guys on what has happened recently. The plastic bendy bollards have recently been removed following multiple collisions into them - drivers going straight through etc and never seen a single cyclist use these. They cost about £80k to install..... and no idea how much to remove
  20. Generally speaking supermarket fuel is fine if it's being run through the tank often. However, I prefer to go for standard unleaded from a good company such as BP / Esso / Shell etc. I've found supermarket fuel to be difficult in my ride on mower compared to standard fuel from the big names and goes "off" a lot quicker so I've stopped using it.
  21. I mean it doesnt sound all that bad, atleast it turned up. Surprised you havent put 300 miles on it already 19 years ago when I bought my first RX i didnt know when it was built and when it was coming - it just turned up. in 2023 our VW Golf turned up 18 months after the expected date of delivery - seems to be a common thing now
  22. You should really be taking these issues including the door handle issue to Lexus rather than Toyota. If its had lexus services it should still really be covered.
  23. Seems OK on initial inspection. Bumper seems to have taken all of the damage to be fair. The bootlid is perfect, no damage at all on it, opens and closes fine and the boot floor is also OK. I suppose we'll only find out after initial inspection is done by the bodyshop
  24. Nope. Unusual behaviour from him as soon as he got out of the car. Gave details and tried to get away in the golf straight away despite it not being in a condition to drive. Was being slightly vague with address etc. Police didn't want to know when called despite suspicion of him being high and on the phone
  25. Car is drive-able so I'm just driving it until it goes for repair. It normally takes a week for repair so I might take advantage of it during that time
