Hi Le

Thankfully I got an extended 36 month warranty with it so I'm hoping the only big out lays I get will be for tyres and possibly brakes and servicing.

Although just before I traded in my NX I had a parking assist sensor fail, it was one that was behind the grill and it had stone damage, and it would have been £294 just to replace one sensor supposedly not covered by the warranty. My argument with them was that if it's so sensitive to a stone chip then it should have extra protection to prevent damage. Anyway trading it in solved that problem.

Thanks for that info about the water pump as well.

I find that so far I'm getting around 35 mpg over the first 400 miles.

My big battle now is trying to get an owners manual out of Lexus. 

Cheers

The best owners manual is probably the pdf version as you can search it. 

The navigation manual is also available online. 

I am still trying to work everything out, they are a very complex machine. 

Over 2000 miles I have averaged just over 35mpg, which is pretty impressive.

Your comment about the parking sensor reminds me of the stone damage to the ordinary badge on the front of my 2015 RX450h. 

With 15% discount that cost £197 to replace. God knows how much a front radar unit would be. 

Did you not get any paper manual with your cat. Mine came with quite a lengthy tome but no navigation or ML manual.

Brakes are very reasonable. 

My last car had front discs and pads replaced for less than £300. 

Has your car had the fuel pump replaced?

The invoice said' Replace fuel pump as requested by Lexus UK'. 

I assume that as the car was on the forecourt for sale that it was a 'service modification'. It was done on 11th October 2019.
