  1. I had my windscreen changed by Autoglass on my IS250 a couple of years ago. It didn't go well, I'll see if I can find my post..
  2. Understand that you may not want to part with any cash but for £25 you could buy a Carista and follow the video below. You get full free functionality for the first month. It might give you peace of mind knowing if more than one sensor is affected and you'd have a good diagnosis tool for use in the future 🙂
  3. As already mentioned, it's safe to drive as long as you know your tyre pressures are correct. Was the warning light on when you bought the car or has it happened since? It could be that one or more sensors were damaged during the tyre change. If you have access to an OBD reader like Carista you can check the sensors are reading, see pic. It will give you an idea of where to start.
  4. Quick follow up, discovered that there's plenty of access to the front of the radiator by removing just 9 clips and the 2 horns. Enough leaf debris and corn stalks wedged in there to start a compost heap
  5. There is an 'add on' version available on Wish that would fit a CT but not sure how bad it would look just stuck to the door:
  6. This is the Ebay search I did, no mention of CT unfortunately
  7. Not Merlin but what Herbs says above is true, it's not even 5 minutes tbh 🙂
  8. ..but I like it. Had illuminated sills on the IS250 but prefer these. One each side, direct replacement and 5 mins in total 20210320_184016_1.mp4
  9. Beautiful car, enjoy! I have the same color combo, everyone comments on how great it looks
  10. Bored this morning so removed the engine under covers today just to have a look. I was interested to see if there was any corrosion on a 3.5 year old car. The retaining screws were all rusty but I cleaned them up and coated them with ACF-50 before reassembly. All in good nick under the covers but there was a lot of debris on the inside of the covers themselves. There isn't now! Wondered if I might get access to the front of the radiator from underneath but sadly not.
  11. If it's going back in to be checked then you can just wait to see what they say or run a few simple tests at home. If it were me I'd jack up each wheel in turn spin them and check for any noise then rig up a pointer that's not quite touching the tyre and rotate again noticing any change in gap between the fixed pointer and rotating tyre. Hope that makes sense!
