  1. Had my Blue F sport NX 2 and a bit years now....lokking round for what's next (I'm a company car driver doing just 20k per annum). Like the Jag F-Pace but the NX for me best value for money - so am thinking it's going to be another one mid 2018 for another Yorkshirenan !
  2. It's the link to sat nav I found useful (it worked for my S5) ie I could email my eta to people.
  3. I was trying to get the dealer to assist me by saying this. I love the car....thanks for the tethering idea...I thinks it's turned on on my phone so going to switch off. I do lots of miles and the auto reply to texts and emails is something I really want to get working but dealer seems lost !
  4. Hi. I have a NX300 F Sport. But my biggest bug bear and it really irks me is that my samsung S7 whilst connecting on blue tooth the system will not pick up incoming texts or emails. Just had 30k service and said this stupid thing "could" put me off buying another next year to the dealer. He said the technology on S7 was too sophisticated for Lexus software (Bull if ever I heard it). Other people with Range Rovers. Audi. BMW's Jags with same phone all messaging connects...anybody any ideas as this really annoys me. PS I have premium nav system.
  5. Hi. Thule do the kit. I've got 4 x bikes on my roof
  6. Me too 34.6 and I've had a 4 bike roof rack on for last 3 months - making no difference on mpg
  7. Fully laden up to Northumberland and I'm at 33mpg after my mysterious drop to 27mpg over the winter on premium unleaded !!
  8. Sorry to go off thread- Samsung solution (I had exactly same issues and it's taken me hours to sort - Dealer couldn't ) On your phone settings set it to keep emails for up to 2 weeks only (I had 5000 stored on phone) get rid of all unnecessary text messages and then set Lexus system to default settings - that should do the trick. The problem (to me) seemed to be that the Lexus system was unable to cope with the amount of data I had on my phone. Good luck !
  9. Samsung S5 - had loads of problems initially that a Lexus couldn't fathom (very long story).
  10. I've got Premium Nav system. Go to telephone CLICK messages and then in bottom right of screen will be a box saying quick messages - there are 15 pre set that you can use to reply to texts or email whilst on the move - or you can set your own message - very handy
  11. Yeah I too suddenly find my self on watch the mog gauge (not that it's important to me in all honesty). Still only at 31 after dropping to 27 from 37 when I filled up with super ?? New trick discovered today - if you have destination in sat Nav you can text a quick message from Lexus preset messages to say the wife and it gives your exact eta....cool ! Only issue I have there though is it only displays numbers on screen so you kind of have to know the number your texting back - thought it would display as named contact as it picks all contacts up when you jump in the car.
  12. I would say there was a bit of a cold snap - would that make a 10mpg difference ? Driving style did not change and reading taken from computer (not old school I'm afraid). Filled up again the other day (using standard) and average went up to 33 after a couple of days. I'm not bothered either way but will just stick to standard from now on.
  13. So how about this one... I thought I would fill up last time with super unleaded (I always use Sainsburys) and see how things went mpg wise. I have averaged on standard unleaded around 37mpg on town and motorway journeys (all driven in standard mode). So I fill up with super and my mpg drops to 27 and has styed like that throughout the tank ??? Back to the normal stuff for me from now on !
