    Yes, very striking ... So many options with colour wraps. My fav would be

    Give the door rubbers a good treatment with Gummi Pflege to prevent them freezing up

    Rattles like this, IME, have come from the CATs not the exhaust box. Either way a strap fixed around the offending unit may well cure it (did on the CAT on my MB)

    My winter routine.. Open car, start engine, switch on heated seats (and now I can also switch on the heated steering wheel 😎) switch on the heated rear screen and door mirrors. Scrape windscreen and side windows clear Get back in and drive away. Car is pushing out warm air within 1 mile, seats are toasty warm... Unless you are parked on private land (driveway) it is an offence to leave a car unattended with the engine running.

    And assuming the previous owner handed the card key back with the car? These things are expensive, no dealership would replace lost/missing keys automatically.

    Same problem as found in Mercedes of a certain era ...

    Just curious as to why you felt the need to fit an aftermarket oil (ATF) cooler kit? What was wrong with the original set-up?

    Or is it the moisture protection film inside the door, behind the door card?

    No suggestions from the dealer, no thoughts at all? My first would be a faulty nearside radar sensor, possibly dodgy connection or chaffing loom. The headlamps not dipping, gotta be something with the front screen mounted camera, either adjustment/alignment or possibly a screen blemish. Any or all would throw up some error codes, or be fairly easy to check. I'd suggest taking the car to another dealership. Exactly how new is the car, how many miles on the clock?

    On the RC the dash top mounted sensor is for the lights. The sensor on the RVM is for auto dimming mirrors. I haven't found the sensor responsible for the sat may screen. On my Mercs that sensor was actually within the screen itself.

    I don't think they look similar, the BMW has more pronounced creases across the rear and looks much more squat. Maybe just the angle of the photo...

    My 2019 RC300 came with both the usual key fob and the key card. The card does not need to be carried with the fob, it functions instead of the fob, just no buttons. The card can be left in one's pocket/wallet, it doesn't slot in anywhere. It's just meant as a less bulky/obtrusive device for opening the car.. I imagine carrying both might confuse the car regarding the easy entry memory settings and climate memory settings.

    The first thing one reads is. "It is your own responsibility to ensure that the use of the LED retrofit lights complies with applicable local legal requirements." Plus under the spec listing.. " Homologation ECE NO" Bottom line is one cannot legally fit LED into lamp units designed for halogens

    But they are asymmetrical, have they been fitted with the word OUTSIDE to the outside of the car? https://www.uniroyal-tyres.com/car/tyre-guide/tyre-knowledge/fitting-rainsport-3

    The braking force distribution is controlled by an ECU, so in theory it could possibly miss-apply the brakes but I doubt it would fail that way. Rear brakes account for very little actual braking (disregarding regenerative braking) I think as little as 20%. Lexus-Tech.eu has all the tech docs on how the system works, this is the doc for my 2019 RC, just for example Brake Control System.pdf

    I have that colour combo with my RC and have received many compliments.

    The only legal way would be to fit the xenon lamp units from another/later model, if they exist. If the donor model also has the auto-levelling and washers, they would have to be fitted also.

    They have really reduced the amount of colour coverage, sadly ...

    Ensure the screen is very clean inside. A dirt film attracts water vapour and allows it to condense on the surface. Check the condition of the cabin filter(s), check the underlying floor sound deadening is dry. Keep the a/c switched on permanently, this dehumidifies the air.

    Various VIN decoder sites are giving the build date as 01-08-2017 So, this car has been doing the rounds for a couple of years, or stored somewhere Lexus-Tech eu. biuld sheets shows the car has AVS

    You could use one of the 'up-rated' halogen offerings? https://www.osram.com/am/am_com_ledriving_campaign_4.jsp

    Can't say I've noticed that it is any worse than before. I always dry the door shuts and in doing so encourage the drips from the mirrors, ready for the final wipe.

    I believe that's for service and tech docs, rather than the connected services account required to link to the car's multimedia unit?
