  1. You want to get the shut lines on those doors looked at 😁
  2. This What Car article might be worth a read https://www.whatcar.com/news/best-cars-for-three-child-seats/n16741 From the article......Using a Multimac might be an option? "The Multimac allows you to seat up to four kids across a car’s rear row, transforming one that might only have been able to accommodate two child seats into one that can take up to four. Depending on which model you choose, the manufacturer claims it provides flexible seating options for children from 0-12 years old (36kg)."
  3. Great road for a bit of spirited driving. Used it a lot on my way down to the Merc independent PCS in Hornedean
  4. Tyre pressures are derived from the axle weight and contact patch area. Under inflation will allow the tyre to flex excessively and potentially over heat. Over inflation is less concerning, some police pursuit drivers will inflate their tyres to the max permissable to give pin sharp handling, at the expense of ride and a reduced contact patch area. Generally, for normal day to day driving, it is always better to stick with the manufacturer recommended pressures and especially any front rear delta. The pressures are recommended for a reason, not simply plucked from the air....
  5. Parking sensors disable at speeds above approx 6mph, I leave mine switched on permanently. The indicator is simply there to show the system is enabled.
  6. Williams Ceramic coating with Meg's Synthetic X-press spray wax. Video is 18mths old but the finish looks exactly the same Meg's tops the lot of you!
  7. The ICE will kick in earlier if the outside temperature is low, as the cabin heater is taking heat from the engine coolant, if the inside temp drops the ICE fires up to warm the coolant Possibly? I know I can sit much longer in the summer compared with autumn winter ...
  8. Mine's on the factory default position (middle) and seems just about right. Maybe it's model dependant? The only time I feel the need to intervene is when it's raining, flicking the headlamps to On. Why don't Lexus have the same system as Mercedes, whereby the dipped headlamps come on if the wipers operate for >20sec? The number of numpties driving around in the torrential rain today without any lights on ....
  9. Check here https://www.gov.uk/check-vehicle-recall and here https://www.dft.gov.uk/vosa/apps/recalls/default.asp
  10. As Rayaan suggests try turning the auto headlamp sensitivity to minimum and see what happens? The system seems to be functioning ok as it clears when you disable the function with the RVM button, so it may simply be too sensitive.
  11. I believe only the red rear bumper reflectors are checked at the MoT
  12. Non functional on current models but the new 2019 RC does get functional vents, helps aero apparently
  13. A garage cannot prevent the driver taking their car away, even with a Dangerous fail. What they can do is alert the Police, should the car be driven, rather than removed on a flatbed/trailer.
  14. Yes, the handbook is not structured in a easily searchable format. Many key topics/words return zero results. I only discovered this option to backup by chance, looking for something else...
  15. It's always been there on every car I've had with auto-dim mirrors but must admit never that obvious. Perhaps the lighting conditions were such that the dim function had kicked in? Was it the same on the interior RVM? Does it go away if you cancel the dim function using the button on the bottom of the RVM?
  16. Magpies possibly, saw one attacking the windscreen rubbers on a neighbour's car the other day!
  17. Probably more trouble than it's worth, try Osram Nightbreakers instead. A straight swap and much whiter/brighter https://www.osram.com/am/am_com_ledriving_campaign_4.jsp
  18. Any Lexus dealer should be able to look up the original fitting and supply. I expect one can only purchase a complete set of four, not just a single nut/bolt though, so matching with the ones left won't be an issue
