  1. I'd have the LC500 in yellow with red interior, please, thank you
  2. Just checked my handbook and it states "When the outside temperature falls to nearly 0°C (32°F) The dehumidification function may not operate even when is pressed or “A/C” is selected."
  3. I believe the a/c chiller shuts off at temps below approx 5c so no dehumidification if it's really cold outside?
  4. If the thief can read the fob to gain entry he can also start the car (with KeylessGo). The recently well advertised video from the Police shows the thieves using a relay box next to the car and a high gain antenna to pick up the keyless signal from the fob. The signal, relayed to the box next to the car tricks the car into thinking the fob is present and so opens and will start. Obviously once driven away the thieves can't restart the car once the IGN is switched off but by then they are miles away.. I simply place my keylessGo fob in a tin box when home. This blocks the signals.
  5. I had the same with mine, just two days into ownership. Just needed a reset, 5min job for the dealer. No explanation. Been fine ever since
  6. My first thoughts are no. You are basically using a 12v battery to charge another 12v battery through a convertor that will have losses. At best the batteries will equalise? The Ctek needs an "unlimited" electrical supply to push energy into the depleted battery.
  7. Your new RC has suffered a flat battery after only a week parked? Surely this must be because of an unusual drain somewhere? The 12v battery only monitors the entry system and powers up the computers for the hybrid traction battery to take over all the running functions. Are you going to get this looked into? I was hoping, ney, expecting my RC to happily stand for many days without issue. unlike my CLS55 which barely survived 3 days... (and why I also have an MXS5, very good kit)
  8. What's this 'Professional' nav option? I thought the OP was talking about the standard and Premium nav options? You need to check the "Average Speed" settings in the Nav set-up menu
  9. But not as good as this stock exhaust on the LC500.
  10. Agreed, for me this would be very welcome as I would love a car where I can pre-heat/de-ice the vehicle on these frosty mornings
  11. Any use? http://blog.lexus.co.uk/lexus-navigation-system/ And an old thread from here Personally I would always prefer OE integrated sat nav solutions. Cost difference is minimal and on a second hand car insignificant. The cost of map updates seems high as a one off purchase but spread over the service life of the mapping data it's again small.
  12. Not my cup of tea for a road car but can't deny it sounds great!
  13. Agreed. We used to have the posts numbered, wonder why it was discontinued?
  14. When the autobox is in P there a pawl that engages a notched wheel on the output shaft preventing it rotating. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_pawl
  15. Just place your keys (don't forget the spare) in a tin box overnight. Quick easy and secure from 'snooping' ...
  16. Along with a similar one on the front suspension it monitors the car's attitude and adjusts the auto leveling for the headlamps?
  17. Do post back and let us know how you get on? Nothing worse than a dead-end thread..
