got the same issue on my GS450h.. will have to check do the swap test first before ordering, but a great help

Funny thing is i called another Lexus dealer in the Midlands who quoted £271 just for parts (pads and discs and shim kit). Bit of a silly question @Shahpor but did you discs and pads fitted. They all know me well at my Dealership so maybe threw in a discount.

After reading that.. its a bit fiddly. i looked for some good pads and discs and they are about £120-£150. Spoke to Lexus and they quoted £235 supplied and fitted. So decided to drop it off to Lexus while they get the rear shock replaced under warranty.

Very old tread.. might aswel ignite it again... ive had CT200h, IS300h, RX450h, ISF, GS300h and in a GS450h. As the topic was on GS.. i just come off a IS300h 2013, i love the IS, i think its a good balance of quick and family practical and looks fresh still . The GS300h i loved too.. but found it a bit sluggish. Now having the GS450h. . .not going back to 300h. Its spacious, practical, looks great, got plenty of gadgets like the others and bloody quick. I used to get 28mpg on my old 2009 RX (including Mrs driving it like a diesel), currently im getting 31.1mpg on the GS450h. My IS300h was giving me 38.8 avg.. so i aint complaining. Can't see myself in another GS300h. Ist either IS or GS450h.

Perfect mate. Thanks.

Hi all, Just sold my IS300h and got into a GS450h. So far really enjoying it and amazing power. I knew it would be quick having a RX450h and this being lighter. I had it in a Lexus for VHC and they pulled out some issues like play in rear steering rack, one rear shock leaking and rear discs and pads, which luckily for me the car still under warranty (not the brake discs and pads). What i needed to know is how do i change the rear brake pads and discs with the electronic brake. I have done pads and discs before but not one with a EB. Any advice? Sorry if this topic has been repeated. Maj.

@gb1600e thats my old ISF.. miss it! I has the back bumper section wrapped and added the small fin lip under it along with the rear screen spoiler. Still looks fab.

You need the genuine roof bars that fit in the OE slots, then the after market ones like halfords will fit across

Thats strange, i would not have thought they would get expensive but rather cheaper. How much did they quote you?

Just though id add my bit as i was at Lexus Bham today and saw the red ISF. Not something i would buy, its has a front end spray job which is not bad, but the front bumper is not put back properly, gaps all over and also over spray on the headlights (bottom). Give it 6months and the lacquer will start to peel off because it looks like who ever did the paint job did not take the parts off to paint the car, its as though they just masked it up. Ive had two of these before and this car look tired compared to the ones i had with a lot more mileage on them compared to this. Personally i think its worth 15k.

Thanks @MadJam250. It had to be either this grey with red or White with Red.. as much as i hated Grey, my last 3 out of 5 cars have been grey lol.

Its a old posting i know, but thanks to you guys i just ordered mine from bootliners.co.uk, posted for £26.98.. can't go wrong!👌

Its firm compared to the GS300H F Sport, but not as firm as the ISF. I like the driving position, got that sporty feel you dont get in the GS, he GS was a F Sport, but sitting inside i didn't get the sport feel, more of a luxury feeling, but I must say i love the drive of a GS from all the ones i had in terms of smoothness and space, the RX is brilliant, but you have to work with it to push it a little. I was surprised who quick the IS is, i though it would be a bit sluggish to take off.. but i was surprised. Love the odo movement and LFA sport look and the noise in sports mode (even though its fake lol). I'll give you more of a review after a few weeks of driving it.

hello all, Just wanted to share that I bought my first IS300h F Sport after a long debate with the Mrs if we should keep the RX450h. I've had plenty of Lexus's in the past and after going through all/majority of German brands, I'm sticking to Lexus. I've had numerous IS200 Sports, a IS220d Sport, a couple of IS-F's, GS300h F Sport, still got the RX (for now) and now my first IS300h F Sport.... and I really like it. not as spacious as the RX or GS obviously, but a very nice place to be in, the seats really wrap around you I must say and the chunky steering I've missed, I love the DRL's.

Just bought a IS300h F Sport.. really like it and missed the sporty feel! Will be a shame to see the RX go!

I bought mine from Lexus Birmingham for £271 two weeks ago.. give them a shout.

I've secured a deposit on a lovely IS300h F Sport i grey with red leather. Going to pick it up on Sat. I decided to stick with Lexus after trying majority of the german brands. We will decided which one we will keep by the weekend and the other one will have to go.. will be a shame selling this beast as it took me a while to find one with the kit and a PREMIER edition (or with the PREMIER extras) and with seats that are in excellent condition. This one having no air suspension was a massive bonus...but oh well.. Mrs drives the family car more than me so her approval👈 is more important than mins on this occasion. I think i need to source my third IS-F... muahahaha..... "errr sorry love put the keys back"

She like to have a overview of the front end of the car, we had the same issue with the BMW f10.. she didn't like using a cushion 😂. She has only driven it once so far. . .so once she starts to drive it a little more, time will tell... positives are that she like the looks and pearl colour, she also likes the height of the car and also said she feels alot safer too. IF. . . i did sell it i know i'll make money and not lose out.

Hi all, thought I'd add some pictures on for you all as requested. I added a few extras: New rubber boot mat, brand new Lexus roof bars and Heko wind deflectors. All of these added makes a big difference to the car as it stands. Disappointing thing is i might have to sell it because the Mrs can't get used to it 😫.

On the topic of mats, does anyone have just the rear one? I managed to get two front brand new ones on ebay for very cheap price, just need the rear. The mats i have in mine are (i think) out of the new RX450H. One i get me a rear one i will be selling the full set.

Thats great bit of info thanks Herbie. Mine i take it is a PREMIER then with all the bits.. don't know what it says SE-L #confussed. Weather is crap her in Midlands.. been raining since i got it. Once it clears up i will take some pics.

Lovely drive home.. picked her up from Lexus dealers in Belfast on Sat. Its a SE-L 2009 (09) but has the full Premier kit with the Style bumper pack. I called Lexus in Birmingham (parts) and they said it shows as a Premier 🤔 Its done 93k *Heads up display *Mark Levinson sound * rear camera *side camera *sunroof *memory seats *adaptive cruise control *adaptive xenon headlights *electrical boot * premier wood steering and trims *cool seats *heated seats *folding mirrors *DAB Is there anything else that comes on the PREMIER that i don't have? After viewing a few i realised Lexus use a very soft leather in the RX which crack very easy and it was hard to find one which held up well, even some with 60-70k looked bad. Mine however for 93k are in very good condition and i can't complain for getting it under £13k with the spec and 12 months Lexus warranty.

Hi, as I'm in the the same league looking for this shape RX, I found it ever so difficult to find a premier at a cost which I didn't want to part with. Today morning I managed to secure a deposit on a used approved one in NI, so looking forwards to pickup on Sat and guess what.. I was going through the video and pictures and it don't have air Suspension 😝

Hi bud, i didnt get around to changing them as i sold the car.

I didnt, beacuse there was limited choice in alloys due too being 114.3. I went againt the work.. also i sold it couple of months back.. looking at the new shape at a decent price.
