  1. It doesn't like your taste in music?
  2. Check page 576 of the handbook, only via Lexus dealer https://d24bc9lyrt5en5.cloudfront.net/Customer-Portal-Admin/emanuals/LEXUS/OM53B95E.pdf
  3. I had cream coloured leather seats in my RC for three years, not a mark on them and hardly a crease. Even had the dog in the back many a time. Lexus leather is so much softer than that in my Mercs but I'd say it ages much better. Mercedes do have a recognised issue with seat bolsters splitting. Regular cleaning is key to maintaining a good leather surface.
  4. Can they read?
  5. Aren't they LED from the factory?
  6. Fort William to Milton Keynes, non-stop overnight with the family (and dog) fast asleep in the back. Not a Lexus but a SEAT Alhambra....
  7. "Thief crushed to death by car while trying to steal catalytic converter ..." https://www.swindonadvertiser.co.uk/news/18197902.thief-crushed-death-car-trying-steal-catalytic-converter/
  8. Is the layout not printed on the fuse box lid? Perhaps has a printed paper layout folded in the panel?
  9. Catalyst metals are not consumed or permanently altered by use, so makes no difference whether hybrid or not. Unfortunately the scum that steal these things don't know this and believe what the press tell them..
  10. Specifying the 2019 F-Sport with Takumi Pack is(was) approx £1500 cheaper than going for the Takumi grade. What does the Takumi grade get that the F-Sport + Takumi pack doesn't? Keeping in mind the F-Sport has AVS and LFA style meters that the Takumi doesn't get.
  11. Done deliberately to drive the desire to upgrade to the model, as many marques do. Omit some functions in lower grade models/series but included as standard on more expensive versions creates model/grade differentiation. Then include them in the next face-lift..
  12. Not forgetting the rain water running off the roof and onto the car seat each time one opens the doors!
  13. No resync of the windows and sunroof one-touch operation?
  14. First off, there is no alternator on a hybrid car. The 12v battery is recharged using the traction battery. I've haven't used my CTEK on my RC but I see no issue with connecting directly to the battery terminals as I did on my Mercs. Or you could use the jump start terminals in the engine bay as detailed in the handbook? I personally wouldn't disconnect the 12v battery to trickle charge it.
  15. There are aftermarket kits available to increase the height of car seats, some are also adjustable. They are installed between the seat runners and the floor mountings. A quick Google should throw up some candidates. An awful lot cheaper that a replacement seat...
  16. No button on the side of the seat base?
  17. Wow! Your speedometer has shoes? Was that an optional extra or after-market?
  18. Every car I've owned has suffered this, inherent in the design of the window rubbers with a felt insert to help reduce scratches. Nothing to be done, except don't wind the windows down until the water has evaporated!
  19. You'd think so but it's really quite easy! As easy as my CLS55 and there's less nannying electronic intervention..
  20. Really? One purchases a 1yr old Lexus, not a cheap car and then quibbles over a couple of quid a day ( effectively) on servicing? All part of ownership surely?
  21. Just driver error.. But one needs a full English first, to sharpen the reflexes .,..
  22. I used d:class automotive to retrim my Mercedes in nappa leather, two tone and a custom design. It was a good 10yrs ago, cost was approx £2k. It included installing seat heaters to the rear seats..
