Hi there, had this problem on my RX300. The latches as per Peter's photos stuck inside due to dirt, you have to remove them and give a good wash with dish washing liquid, exercise them and do not lubricate. Took half an hour to sort them out, no problem since. Hope this helps.

800 Lumens LED, without shields brilliant even in heavy rain at night.

Used 3 dfferent products, not cheap ones, the result is very clear headlights. Unfortunatly it lasts only 3 - 4 months and definetely not 12 as stated.

Hi, As for the mirror you can look here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RIGHT-DRIVER-SIDE-WING-MIRROR-GLASS-HEATED-FOR-LEXUS-RX-300-350-400H-2003-2009-/391507741181?fits=Car+Make%3ALexus|Model%3ARX|Cars+Year%3A2005|Plat_Gen%3AMHU3_%2C+GSU3_%2C+MCU3_&hash=item5b27ae09fd:g:l64AAOSwaB5XjJh3 looks like 5 min DIY hope this helps

This is what I've done, no problems even in heavy rain at night.

You can disable them by pushing a button on the rear view mirror.

Replaced radiator last year for £300 all inc. It is a pain for mechanics TBH. There are two ways to do that - take it off from beneath or pull it up. There has to be disconnected AT cooling pipe to take radiator down. This was badly corroded so mechanic decided not to touch it. To pull radiator up is more time consuming and a bit expensive.

Agree, RX300 drives more like FWD in normal conditions.

Hi, My front tyres worn evenly at 8k miles but I keep them at 35 psi and not 33 as per manual, that's what many RX owners suggest to do. Monte

Hi, I found this article but have never tried, hope this helps. "Sit in car, close door, turn IGN to ON (the last position before starting the engine, but no need to actually start engine) and set Odometer to full mileage reading (ie not trip A or cool.gif Turn off, remove key Re-insert key, turn back to ON (as above) Press and hold ODO button for 30 seconds (may be OK with less, but 30 worked for me) whilst still pressing ODO button, clip in seatbelt b_on or b-off appears in ODO display take finger off ODO button, and press again to change between b_on (bleeper on) and b_off (bleeper off) unclip belt and turn off ignition to set" Monte

Hi Paul, I have recently replaced my tailgate lock assembly because of faulty electric motor, here are some pics, hope this helps

Looks similar?

Hi everyone! I can't open my tailgate any more, it is locked at all times. Car is LE model so opens only manually. Without a key hole in door can't open from outside - need fold down rear seat, get in the boot and open it from inside - that's disgusting... After some investigation I found that there is no any central lock mechanism for tailgate, it just disables door handle which is not kind of a mechanism but just contact to activate door lock motor. Couldn't find any info about that, any suggestions please...? Cheers, Monte

I did minor service and MOT test last summer at MK Lexus, polite service would recommend them. Well, maybe without MOT - wrote some strange advise about engine plastic covers which obstruct view of engine...
