  1. Try money supermarket. I got my friend to try it and she got cover with AA BUT at a cheaper price than other comparison sites, due to money supermarket doing special rates on selected companies.
  2. The defrost app on the 350h starts heaters, defrost AND engine.as stated previously you can set it for set amount of time to function. However the vehicle remains locked and if you or anyone touches the handle of the car the engine stops immediately. Technically speaking this is not remote start as described and used in the USA but it can be used to remotely start the vehicle.
  3. Gen 1 NX does not have remote start unlike the gen 2 350 h & 450h. My NX 350h has it and I used it to defrost the car.
  4. I had this issue. Its been to Dealership to get all latest updates and now works perfectly. Book it in for recall updates that came out last week. You can also set seats by saying hey lexus set seat to position 1 or 2 or 3.
  5. I dont know the answer to your query and no one answered my same question for the gen 2 NX. I have pondered a while about putting a tracker etc. on my vehicle and am still not decided. I am using a disklok at present. I have however looked at the scorpion which with the x- bus can bus protection and with a tracker is without any discounts quite expensive. The x-bus works similar to the ghost in the way it disarmed using the selected switches / buttons in the car to input the code. the one I am tempted for is the Smartrak S5+imob which uses a card or phone app to disarm.the immobiliser. No card no start. Cheapest I have found this is £499.00 fitted plus additional subscription fee to Smartrak. Be interesting on members thoughts.
  6. Update: Since getting the latest software update I have done a few trips. The link has shown every trip without fail. Without tempting fate I would say that it now works as it should and the update has cured the issues. My recommendation to anyone having issues is to get into the dealership and get the recall updates done.
  7. Update: Car been to Lexus Bolton today. 23rd Feb. Had new updates installed re link issues. Seems to be working ok but early days. Will monitor.
  8. Does anyone know if the latest NX has a similar chink in its armour.
  9. You need to remove the mechanical key part then the back of the key can be slid sideways away from the silver/grey spine to access battery.
  10. Update regarding this problem. My car was in at Lexus today for a check re my issue. It is now booked in for next Thursday 23rd for a further software update being released next week which should cure. Looks as though Lexus has acknowleged the issue. Will update as and when.
  11. I may be wrong but dont think auto park comes with the takumi pack. Only available on the full takumi model.
  12. I got hard manuals with all 3 of my NX inc. my new one
  13. On my 350h I am having issues with link not connecting. Consequently memory seat function not working. If I log in again using QR it eventually starts to work until I switch off and then not working again. Booked into dealers next Tuesday 14th Feb. Has anyone else had this issue and remedy if any. thanks in advance.
  14. Have you checked in settings. I have got mine set so doors cannot open until Park selected. However system should over ride if handle pulled twice. The handle need to be pulled well back. If not settings or handle still not working then dealer visit it is
  15. I have had no issue of this sort on my NX 350h f-sport. As Nemesis (Peter) says it sounds like a dealer visit.
  16. This year I am with NFU. Found their service so far excellent. You cannot get online quotes but I have found their agents excellent plus my new NX is covered for new replacement if written off for 2yrs rather than the normal 12 months.
  17. Regarding the frozen button there has already been a thread regarding it. Basically in cold weather the pressure pad inside the door handle has a tendency to freeze and not work. You do need to warm it up by friction from fingers or use something warm to defrost. I have found for some reason my rear offside passenger door never fails to work but all others do.
  18. If you log in again it will still do it. Plus very difficult to re log in when driving. You are already logged in and pressing cancel just reconnects.
  19. Do not worry. This is a glitch but is not the car but with the lexus computers which are not the best. Just press CANCEL to close NOT continue and all will be as normal.
  20. I started a thread earlier re this before this appeared. I have copied it for info: I had difficulty gaining access to my vehicle due to icy weather and electronic locks not working correctly. This issue has been reported widely in North America. I got into car eventually and called into my local Lexus dealer. Apparently if this occurs its because the electronic touch pad on the inside of the handle is frozen. (Not the locking mechanism) If you feel for the slightly raised activation pad which you touch to activate the lock and either use fingers to warm it up by friction or use a heated cloth it will defrost and work. I have tried it using my hand and it does work. Hope this helps for anyone who has come across this issue.

  22. I got mine for my 350h from https://lexuspartsdirect.co.uk/product/lexus-nx-phase-2-rubber-floormats/?utm_source=LexusOwnersClubUK&utm_medium=ForumLinks. as well as boot mat. All have lexus logo and I am very pleased with them. Service and delivery 5*.
  23. Once seat set and steering wheel set to your requirements look to setting buttons on drivers door. press set button and 1 at same time and memory is set. also if you go into settings you can programme setting to specific key so car knows who driving. Seat and wheel will move to desired position automatically and on arrival at destination and unfastening seat belt will both retract.
  24. Dont buy. Go to Lexus dealer and they should sort. They did on my previous NX.
  25. Forgot to say if you use the heating app the car will start but all doors remain locked. If you then go to open door the engine stops immediately. A good safety feature that stops sneak thieves jumping in and driving off in your pride and joy.
