  1. Given what I said in the last line of my post above, what sort of tolerance would you allow in the manufacturer's figures?
  2. Manufacturer's fuel consumption figures were always meant to be a simple tool to show how different models compared. It wasn't meant to be a real world figure attainable by the average motorist. Tests were conducted on rolling roads inside a climate controlled room with a computer program applying the throttle etc. All manufacturers tested their model in exactly the same way. In fact I think they had to submit vehicles to an independent testing body. A couple of years ago the way these tests were conducted was changed to randomly selected samples from production being fitted with recording equipment and being done on the open roads. The results from these new tests were very much more in accordance with real world figures. But the bottom line is everyday fuel consumption is easily affected by many factors beyond the control of the manufacturer, not least the way it is driven!
  3. If the car "drives perfectly fine" why are you looking to replace the hybrid battery?
  4. A well made Negroni, best sipped in the warm night's air under a star studded Amalfi sky ...
  5. Vacuum gently and wipe over with a damp microfibre cloth. It's vinyl so impenetrable. Ink marks and stubborn marks can be removed with proprietary cleaners from the likes of Autoglym or Chemical Guys I bet Lexus do a cleaning kit for it ...
  6. I'd be very surprised if windscreens came in LHD and RHD versions. The glass shape is the same. Do you have HUD? I suppose this might make a difference if the film is positioned at manufacture? The same could be said for any camera area or rain sensors but I've never heard of 'handed' screens before. My guess is they have broken something or ordered the screen for a different model..
