Hi I had it done last week at Lexus Stockport, cost was £80. 2019 Lexus ES 300h.

Perfect! will get them to disable it next time I take it for a service. Hardly ever if at all use it intentionally. Thanks!

Might be a bit late, but I also have a 2019 ES base model. Other points to note - quite incredibly there is no Auto wipe function! I know, right? You have to .. do it manually!!! First world problems and all that, but I find it ridiculous in a prestige brand. The default sound system is... insipid. Adequate maybe. You get sound in the front, precious little in the back.

I have a habit of keeping my car remote in my pocket. On more than one occasion I have noticed my car boot open randomly - seems like somehow I press and hold the boot opener button on my remote. Doesn't happen THAT often, but it happens. The other night I heard a banging on my door about midnight and it was the police going past noticed my boot wide open! Nothing missing, must have pressed it again by accident. Other than the obvious (hang the keys up or put them in a wireless signal blocking pouch, is there a way to disable this function? I did look through the menu system, did not see anything.. Anyone else do this or is it just me (again, had many cars with remote boot release, never was a problem!).

Interesting to see with the return of regular heavy rain sees this issue being reported more frequently. Personally I reapplied my silicon spray the other week as I had a reoccurrence and its been OK since apart from yesterday it had a one second blip where it came on but went away of its own accord. No problems today! Personally I also doubt its a software issue, I smell BS there! I also had an IS previous to this ES, for four years, and had only one instance, when an actual leaf was stuck on the sensor! I would be interested to know if this issue also happens on the Toyota brand version of the ES, the Camry? This problem is very annoying and is making me think again about getting another Lexus...

Took it out today in standard Manchester drizzle for 40 minutes and no problems at all. By the way.. no ceramic coating on my car.

Well hard to tell. Not much driving going on with the new lockdown and i I think zero in heavy rain, small amount in light rain, but it is true that I haven't had a reoccurrence since I reapplied it.

The dreaded sensor issue is back! Took the car out today to collect something, It was raining very very heavily to be fair. On the way back the damn yellow light came on - Parking assist unavailable! first time in months! I parked the car up, switched the car off and on again (I work in IT -can you tell?) and it cleared the fault. I checked the sensors and nothing unusual, no leaves just a bit wet. Guess I will wait for them to dry out a bit and reapply the silicon unless there are better ideas out there?

Damn autocorrect! VIZ of course! Finbarr Saunders Side James and Charles Hawtrey are the corner stones of my humour!

Good old fashioned British double entendre (pun intended there). Brought up on it with Carry On films and latterly Vizio. Can't beat it.

Mine was just one sensor on the front and more or less started from new. Well in the first ten thousand miles when it rained heavily. No special coatings that I know of.

Yes just a little squirt on the dodgy sensor.

Sadly no, there are 2 routes that both merge into one road that leads into my part of the estate. Both routes have plenty of speed bumps. No choice but to go over speed bumps to get to and from my house.

Now thats a good question. The way the roads are theres no way to get to and from my house without going over several speed bumps. Some of which are quite savage! Some are the small pillow type. I have been told speed bumps can play havoc with wheel alignment etc.
