  1. Looks like the grill has cracked to the right of the holder?
  2. I take it you have approached the usual companies that replace automotive glass such as National Windscreens, Autoglass etc? It may be there are no pattern glass suppliers for, what is a relatively a small volume model in the UK
  3. Approx £100 https://lexuspartsdirect.co.uk/?s=boot+strut&post_type=product&dgwt_wcas=1
  4. Your speedometer will under read by approx 10% Your insurers may have a view ...
  5. What happens (if anything) if you hold the Lexus emblem side of the key fob against the face of the Power button?
  6. Recently the road into home has had a change of speed limit from the original 60mph to 40mph then 30mph to directly from 60mph to 30mph. All the signage and road markings have been changed to reflect to the new limit (apparently for a provisional period to assess compliance). The RSA always reflected the correct limit change and I assumed the camera was interpreting the signage but now the RSA shows the new 30mph only fleetingly before reverting to the old 40mph and then showing the 30mph limit change at the old location, where there now is no indication on the road or signage of the change. It appears the camera correctly identifies the signage but then the (outdated) navigation information overrides and forces the old info to be displayed. I know this is only a 'driver aid' and shouldn't be relied on but in an unfamiliar location it could so easily result in unintentional speeding. I wonder if there is a way of prioritising the camera info over the navigation data?
  7. Definitely go back to the dealer, see what they suggest. I wonder if it's something to do with the passenger airbag deployment? My first thought though was someone has carried something resting against the dash pad
  8. And your speedometer will be under reading by a significant amount?
  9. For some reason the brakes on my 2019 RC suffered from the occasional screeching. Didn't have the same on the 2016 RC. Sometimes I would stop and where safe reverse a short distance to clear the screeching. This is the nearside front, Lexus said it wasn't a problem and safe. It drove and stopped without issue This was the offside, totally unmarked
  10. Certainly don'y do it if you have the nanoe™ option fitted....
  11. It is usually labelled on the audio unit and/or the speakers
  12. Tesla recommend the use of water to extinguish battery fires and suggest not using foam or submersion in water. https://www.tesla.com/sites/default/files/downloads/2016_Model_S_Emergency_Response_Guide_en.pdf Perhaps the most current thinking is large fire blankets to smother the fire. The biggest problem is that these types of fire can spontaneously reignite hours, sometime days, latter. Recovery firms are very reluctant to be involved as there are obvious knock-on risks and legal responsibilities. One UK fire brigade suggest to the 'controlled burn' is safest. Just let the vehicle burn out whilst they protect the local enviroment. https://www.bedsfire.gov.uk/Community-safety/Road-safety/Fire-in-Electric-Vehicles.aspx Either way it's a learning exercise.
  13. What have you been quoted for this? Many tyre shops can do this, it doesn't need to be Lexus
  14. Create an account (free) and enter the VIN in the Lexus-tech.eu website https://www.lexus-tech.eu Navigate to the repair section and then scroll down to Vehicle Specifications.
  15. I change wiper blades at each service, so 12 months max, perhaps 8k miles and IMHO they are shot. Approx £20 from the dealership. An acquaintance recently had to renew the blades on his SL Mercedes, £200 the pair! Apparently they are 'active' blades where the screen wash is passed through the blade directly onto the screen I'll stick with £20 a year, maybe even sooner if I feel the performance has dropped off
  16. @Blessed1235 who do you insure with, they must be very accommodating with all these modifications? I only ask as on a different forum a member has had his insurance voided when he disclosed he had applied paint protection film ...
  17. I'd suggest contacting Lexus UK customer services for confirmation...
  18. Have a look at the attachment in the last post of this thread below
  19. Wow, what a contrast!! Must be like floating on air now 😉 There is nothing to do regarding the headlights, they cast a flat beam. Enjoy getting to know your new car👍
  20. Check the vehicle's data plate for the GTW value. If there isn't a value given then it is illegal to tow with the car. It would also preclude fitting a tow bar for cycle carriers. One's insurer would take a very dim view if one was fitted
  21. This has already been extensively discussed on this forum, unfortunately, with a number of members' first hand experiences..
  22. I believe the North American plants only make LHD versions, primarily for their own market.
  23. So did I ..... Really striking timepiece Must resist.... must resist.... 🥺
