    Exactly!....dealers are very frugal with the truth to say the least when it comes to 'condition' anyway and you have really got to stand in front of it to see if it comes anywhere near your own version of immaculate!

    Like I said the ‘immaculate’ 250 I went to see at this garage was far from it and it had loose bumpers also!

    Price ‘dropped’ to £16,800 now! Can’t remember what it was up for to start with? Aahhhhh just looked at his ‘previous ads’ and it was up for £18,500.

    sign of the times? bit less £££££'s about perhaps? anyone been tracking the prices over the last say 3 years?

    I fitted mine after any back up was gonna be available because I wanted to show that the car was locked from a distance. ie mirrors folded in then car is locked 👍

    Well done that man for getting ‘amongst’ it with the spanner’s and not having to sell a kidney for Lexus to do it! You can sleep soundly now I bet!

    Chances of two reservoirs being faulty is a bit slim so I think you might have to come to terms that it has succumbed to the infamous HG problem!

    If your car has just passed it's MOT ( with some 'Advisory' notes attached) then you don't need it MOT'ed again til next year and if the 'Advisory' items get addressed with the warranty work then they won't be a problem next year.

    The guy ( assumption!) on the workshop floor wielding the spanners and identifying anything & everything that is not in a tip top condition on you car has got no idea if you have any warranty or not and who is gonna be paying be pay for it, he is just doing his job and looking out for his mate in the parts dept! These 'immediate attention' areas....have they been advisories on a mot previously? I guess not by your surprise!

    You just might be storing a perfectly good box then?

    +1 on checking out the battery before going down the Alternator route. factory fitted battery ( you could very well still have OEM battery!) looks like this and this one is dated 14 july(07) 2007.

    That's proper weird! Gonna cost a fortune in screenwash. Does it only do it when you are above a certain speed? What starts it off? I would try and disconnect ( electrically, either fuse or pull plug on pump if you can get to it) the rear wash to check if it is the pump or some spooky syphonic action at speed!

    That’ll be the ‘one Touch’ feature! Note it will stop working and need resetting if you do a Battery removal Also note that the roof can still be operated for upto 45 seconds after IGN off provided you do not open any doors! You can also open/close it via the remote key fob!

    Torque figures here...fill & drain 39 ft/lb

    Manual has it as 1.15L for the 2WD IS250 so gotta get another 1L bottle just for that 150ml !!!

    Gotta ask OP, do you normally have at least 1/3 of a tank of fuel in you car as I have been told that running a car ( with an In Tank Electric fuel pump) with less than this can cause pump problems as the pump is cooled and indeed lubricated by the actual fuel in the tank and if continually low then This may not happen!
  19. Texas
    If these pumps are as reliable as the lead tech quotes then why not consider a used one from a broken car? Much less ££££’s I defiantly would go that way with my 13 year old car! But dealer won’t want to fit used parts though.
  20. Texas
    Agreed but Lexus tell you it is ‘Sealed for Life’ and are unwilling/reluctant to do anything with it at service intervals.....
  21. Texas
    It’s a Toyota thing.....
  22. Texas
    You bought a replacement gearbox!
  23. Texas
    Lexus telling you that it is a ‘Sealed for Life’ gearbox doesn’t help! Their version of ‘Life’ and any owners is gonna be worlds apart!

    Headlight lamps ( not bulbs....."bulbs grow & lamps glow! ) have been discussed numerous times and the Osrsm Nightbreakers keep getting talked about ( do a search as I personally am happy with my headlight performance as I seldom drive at night and have not changed mine ) As for the speaker situation then any speakers you intend fitted must match the spec of the ones fitted already, I have got a ML system and I know they use a non standard impedance size which if not allowed for could damage the amplifier(s). paul m.

    Wouldn’t want to pay a premium for a car that you know had seen the red line more than most!
