    Blutooth

    Hello, Mine does have SatNav and the reversing camera ( though the SatNav DVD player has now died. The screen still works and the camera also - 99.5% of the time. ) The bluetooth device just plugs into the cigarette lighter - so very cheap and surprisingly cheerful! ( I did once think about replacing the unit, but I'm not sure it's that cost effective now? ) Regards!

    +1 My older RX300 does not, though I do have a plug-in bluetooth device.
  3. Best not name this car?!
  4. Brilliant! Soarer V8 - perfect car.
  5. All Season, Summer, Winter?
  6. Great! What tyres are you using? AWD I assume!
  7. Bit of an update ... Battery dead. I was going to go the boot route, but the boot would not open, so Plan B., the engine area. The manual says to take off two panels which is quite easy, and the larger fuse panel, to reach a small upright + terminal. It also says to use a negative area on the other side of the engine bay. Interestingly, my portable charger cables were not long enough. So we extended it using a spare jump lead. Tried twice to start it but no joy. Almost, but not quite... Plan C - called the AA. He tried twice and then it fired. ( He said it was his 4th Lexus dead battery call that day, and that we should run it for 20 mins., every other day. He started it using the same + upright terminal, on the RHS, and the negative I assume, almost next to it. Not sure how safe that is? Not sure if the small battery is ok, too small, all fine, a design fault, very cold, not used enough ...?
  8. I have driving gloves - they make such a difference. Ah haaaaaaaaa.
  9. Thank you, Herbie. I have an aged RX300 and she now has, a shiny new, little used, 450h.
  10. A quick question if I may... My wife's car has a flat 12V battery and won't start/ready. The manual suggests taking off the engine-cover and jumping it there. ( I have a portable power pack to use. ) Someone else (AA?) showed her the battery in the boot and, I think(?), used that. If so, that feels easier? Is there any wisdom I can be guided by as to which option, please?
  11. Use the VIN number? Maybe ...
  12. Sound like a yes then... Agree - good in Summer and good in Winter.
  13. Currently trying to resurrect mine.
  14. Looks a big beast! Enjoy.
  15. I know it's £, but I would have the same brand and type on all 4 corners ... and not mix them...
  16. You never know?! My rear camera stopped working. No condensation but I suspect there was moisture. Possibly me being over enthusiastic washing it with a hose. Seems drier now - and camera working again...
  17. Water ingress, damp, condensation? Been a lot of it about ...
  18. Thank you. Had to do that few times with our now-gone Volvo S80 and RX350. It feels counter intuitive, but does work!
  19. If you care about your car, you care about the steering wheel... and trim, and bodywork, and servicing and... If not...?
