Stuart You are right there isnt Much you can do But plenty of stuff on the INFO page weather Car parking POIs EMails MMS, also one feature i like is the WHAT WHERE page you get there by online search i e POST OFFICE, DONCASTER. you can also Plan your routes on PC and send them straight to car They go in the Stored Routes Page i do use that a lot as it gives you uptodate Route Info Hope that helps Robert

Roger I do believe your Radio is DAB + but are you aware people seem to be going off DAB and is not as popular as it once was. Also they (The Broadcasters) have dropped Traffic Anouncements (TA) and as you may have noticed there are lots of Dead Spots because the promise of More Ariels around the country as failed to be implemented. I used to rely on TA but if i need it now i have to drop back to FM. It would be interesting to know what other members think of this. If you google DAB it will tell you about this HTH Robert

if its Ok for me to comment this is usualy caused by the water pump developing a leak if you can see pink crusty stuff aroind and under pump thats the problem.

Thanks for That John it does seem that its virtually useless might as well not put it on in first place it does sometimes think might as well retrofit Apple car Play Robert

Ok John Well thats me told then

Hi All Is there a voice Command update as My Gs450 mk4 2018 as only Play Artist Play Album Go Home my previous 2010 450 SE L had loads of voice commands granted some of them needed saying a few times or it didnt understand my Yorkshire accent but they worked eventually The American models also have a Plethora of commands So why not ours I did wonder if there was a setting in Techstream to Initiate it. Any Ideas ?? Thanks Robert

Thats very strange as my GS450 l mk 4 does It can be Lock when drive engaged and unlock when Park engaged and Locked when reached 15 mph

Do you use the 3 flash function or you can increase it to 5 that would aleviate the problem i always use the 3 flash on roundabouts or mororway exits

Hi Sherlock The Part Number For The "Repair Damper ASSY is L87020-30010 the cost of this part when i bought it was £22.18 The total cost inc assy was £72.50 it took less than 30 minutes to do but they did take glove box out but as i said it was 10 yrs ago Hope this helps Robert

Sherlock I have had a good look but cant find anything But the repair kit is a Lexus part I will have another search to see if i can find the part number i am sure i must have on my pc somewhere but it was 10 year ago that i had it done sorry for late reply i have been away

Hi Sherlock Yes the lever that controls the Recirc as Broken and if you looked at it in the Fresh air Mode and the slightest touch to move it will result in it breaking. Someone as tried to move it without putting it in Recirc Mode which results in it breaking if you look around the passenger kick panel area you will will fiind the broken lever A few years ago when i Had my 2010 Gs mine was broke not by me i might add i got it changed at Sheffield for £50 approx i suspect it will be more now but there is a repair kit for it

Herbie Do you find the mouse touchpad a bit hit and miss as i was told that it can be a bit skitty but mine is the joystick and was looking at getting one of those vlines but was put off by the cost

Woud it be fair to assume no one uses the Voice activated system I must admit its not the best in the Car Industry

Hi all Got a GS450h 2018 as anyone had any success with the voice control mine is limited to, play Song ,Play Artist. Dial Number and thats about it but most of time(must be my Yorkshire accent ) does not understand me at all. My previous Mk 3 could do allsorts Radio,CD, Increase Heating Lower Heating Navigate to ??? but this one is very limited. I know the latest ones are ok as i had a NX Loner on my last service and was like my earlier car. Can the software be updated or does is it need to be initiated as i cannot find any thing in the online manual except Voice training but i do not have that option on car Thanks

Had mine done 4 weeks ago no problem at all they too put in a quarter tank of fuel at sheffield

Lovely car Nick lovely choice of colour

Yes Very well done Hazel

Hi Nick yes i bought the car from Tunbridge Wells Lexus Dealer I asked the seller if it had been in any accidents and he said No I never noticed the gap near boot and bumper I took it for a oil change to lexus Hull and that was when the Gent told me, he looked it up on the Computer and it had had a replacement bumper fitted. Due to the slight bow in the crash pad it had not been fitted correctly hence the gap when i asked if they could do anything he said Body shop will have to have a look. So as i said i took it to my local body shop in Thorne and he had it done within the hour as been ok ever since.

you will find that the 3.5 is the small screen between speedo and rev/eco dial give limited info and the 12.3 is the split screen main info sat nav,climate and radio dial etc edit i think johnatg may be right it looks like the 8in screen

Had Exactly the same problem when i purchased my Gs450 it was noted to me by the dealer when had first Service. I took it to my local Body Shop the took bumper of and found the (crash pad i think thats what he called it) had a bow in it not allowing the bumper clips to align with it. He had it done within an hour he charged me £50 been ok since

I've got a Grom Vline2 in my RX but some people have gone with Lexion or Lsailt Thanks for that Herbs But my origional concern was does it take over the OEM system as i like The info on the side screen and map on larger part of screen TIA Robert

Thanks For the Info David I did read on the US site that it was a bit clunky and a pain to setup but i am sure there must be a kit that is compatable Thanks all the same Robert

Hi all I am in the process of getting Apple Car Play fitted to my 2018 GS 450h but have a few concerns I have seen the Carlinkit system here for around £350 and the info on the site doesnt look too bad however I like to have Nav on one side (the largest part) and Range ,Time and MPG on the other, does the carlink allow this as all the photos shows either Full screen Nav or Full screen Icons. I have looked at the beatsonic but its around £900 a bit out of my range, maybe because there are'nt too many GS s here I have looked on line at the images but i could'nt get a definitive conclusion from the display. I do on occasions Have full map on screen and use the small dial in Dash but prefer the main screen. I do also have the Quick Dial window up as well so i dont want to lose the ability to have no display on the Main screen. I would be obliged if anyone could enlighten me on this topic Regards

Thanks for that Peter mine is the gen2 by the look of it but soent have a SOS button I dont get many emails that i read in car but i thought if it was on why doesnt it show I have IPhone XR ser 16.3 Robert

Hi all While sat in car awaiting my daughter i was messing with the display I found a email section but have never seen a email come in while I have had the car. I do get SMS sometimes as I have set up the Online Option ( which by the way is Ok for The What Where Screen in Navigation) but the screen does say it can recieve Emails but it does not. As anyone tried this or is the option not set for UK its not a deal breaker but I just wondered if it could be Implimented car is 2018 Gs450h Premier thanks Robert
