There is a review on the auto trader user reviews saying about heavy oil usage on 05-06 engines and carbon build up. -
The only bit of so called "dash creak" I had was in the middle between the clock & air vents & fixing it was as simple as putting a small piece of old credit card in the gap as shown worked a treat, since I took the picture I've pushed it in a bit further so its invisible.

I had a BMW E60 530i 2004 prior to my GS300 but wanted all the toys (and something a bit rarer) this time so went Lexus oh & all the M54 engine leaks!
-
I got one of those £35 2017/18 Sat Nav updates discs off eBay and it worked straight off the bat no problems (I've read elsewhere that you may need to disconnect your car battery for 2mins?) sat nav changes now possible on the move & my 2007 SEL does not have radar cruise, but everything else inc the higher rez screen. Cant the creaky dash be solved with felt in-between the dash & windscreen ?

Are there really people out there who buy 3ltr petrol cars & care about MPG? "your in the wrong game mate"
-
Oh yeah it does.

SE-L has the boot spoiler too. Saw my old E60 5 series on eBay today selling with a FSH & heated seats strange it did't have those when I had it dodgy car sellers.

Silver for the lazy men amongst us

Older units looked like this:

Here is a picture that I took earlier for another post, 07 higher res screen.

I got it to work thanks Only thing I had to have my phone connected otherwise it said on the screen after selecting groups "check phone connection".
-
I had a dark blue once never again ! Most new cars come in white.
-
In real terms its £5 extra a week I think the screen is meant to be higher rez from 2007 I looked at a few older models on Autotrader like this LE on the (top picture) vs mine (bottom picture).
-
I was tempted to get a XF but after some research... Apparently the reversing camera take 5 seconds to come on too.
-
I wonder if the Jag would share the same reliability too ?
-
Keeping the cream clean would be a issue for me too.

Better to go with a car that you like rather than spec, yours is a good looking car & well priced. I previously owned a BMW 530i E60 for 7 years (163k) & for about 4 of those I wanted a GS300 SE-L Silver with a black interior, local & a good dealer not some "by the side of the road buy from a auction & flip the next day type" it took me a while to find one but it was worth the wait. My 5 series always seamed to leak for somewhere no matter how many times it was fixed so lets hope the Lexus is better so far loving the spec has everything I've always dreamed about having on a car.

I have to say having a sunroof is great as it lets in more light making the car much nice to drive during the day.

I just got a GS300 last week and still can't get it to work, not that I really need it. First post :)
