10% so far, just the 6 of us...🎶😆

Would love to reciprocate the snow sentiment but we had the equivalent of throwing flour out the window levels of dusting to the roads. If you have the pipe, you'll literally be a life saver, as this custom lark is having me contemplate self harm, those fittings are a git to get hold of!

I've also posted in the Lexus UK facebook group to hopefully rattle a few people loose into listing their car 😄

2016, F Sport White, Red interior, Sunroof, ML, 4 wheels 😉

Thanks chaps, guess I never noticed it before or drove it long enough in past years. Mind at ease 😄

A query for you F'ers or anyone in general tbh 😛 noticed in recent months that the oil temp doesn't go as high as it previously did at around the half way mark... unsure if cold weather related or underlying problem about to reveal itself? I thought it might have been because I had only been doing short trips, but I have just driven for a solid 90 mins between 50-70mph and it never rose any higher than that? All comments welcome, unless you're about to tell me she's about to blow up, then 🤫 🤐🤣

I've been given details on a local AC specialist from a friend of a friend and I've shot him a message asking if he can sort me out! If not then DIY route is happening as I want the car on the road end of the month 😄

They had a GSF before I think as well? They also left an advert on autotrader saying 'we'll buy your GSF' always a pleasure to see a need for the F cars 😄

Any joy?

Just bought Yuasa this morning to replace the paperweight that is Lion 🙂

Sounds like one of the lines from my condenser, had to go walk the dog very briskly to calm down 😆 Oooooo please o please o pleaseeeeee, currently looking at ways to make shift my own but youtube and autotrader are very distracting!

Chemical guys do a bacon air freshner spray... ha! They also do a Watermelon snowfoam (delightful) and a cherry wax (to die for)... good at cleaning too 😛 but Bilt Hamber is currently king for me!

Literally the best stuff! I've switched over to most of their products. Have to get the ratios correct, but boy oh boy does it work!

Yessir! Old planky mc plankface here wobbled it and the last bit of the fitment into the drier just crumbled on its way out. 😞 Live and learn and as you say, may help someone else from making same mistake!

Hence my post here 😉 always looking for another way out! 😛

It is super tough to see and I've uploaded the pic which doesn't show the tip that is broken. In this pic its actually the one out of focus, the very last 1-2mm is missing. Gonna reach out to automotive friends to offer up and solutions as well! Maybe someone will volunteer to give it a bash haha!

Everywhere is 'part discontinued' which doesn't surprise me. I will keep an eye out for breakers and hope in the mean time a AC magician manifests themselves conveniently to my house! Thanks for all the suggestions peeps 🙂

Yeah I had already accepted my fate when I had ordered from Amayama for the shipping costs, but been refunded now as its 'discontinued', will await reply from above website and then search breakers 😄

That's the puppy, just had a look and most sites say 'discontinued', I'll drop them an email to see if they do indeed have it in stock. Thanks 😄

Thanks chaps I will give them a look over! 🙂

So I posted about finding condenser and drier unit, which I have ordered and received form rockauto - really is a great site to use time and time again. I am now in limbo and its stalled my 'build', the pipe that comes out the top of the drier unit was brittle and broke off upon removal. I have tried rockauto and amayama, rock doesn't stock it and amayama supplier has no stock so refund was issued. I'm now in the position of living life searching for this darn pipe. However, my inner cheat is thinking I could find something else to do its job? I am not an AC specialist by any means but could anyone recommend anything? Or if you happen to be breaking I would bite your hand off for it! 😄 I'll put the diagram for pipe below as well as a real life pic. Any help greatly appreciated!

https://lexus-europe.epc-data.com/ Personal favourite for part no. checks, accurate on everything I've required so far 😄

Very sorry to hear this! Bit of an odd question, would you buy it back in the future? I'd say have a nose about on autotrader and the like but prices have been a bit odd in recent time I've noticed!

I like that they tried, I don't think it is 'that' special but if money was no problem I'd have one (alongside an LFA 😛) I think the white shows the cars lines best and contrasts the carbon, satin finish is different, wonder if it's a pain to maintain, matt paint put me off the Abarth Biposto and I ended up getting the Yellow Record!

Someone woke up on the wrong side of the Lexus forum 😆
