This is why we aren't allowed to own real guns isn't it.

I bought my car from Coventry Lexus but live nearer to Leicester so use them for service. I took it to Leicester to look into an annoying squeak after Coventry failed to locate it and Leicester's chief engineer sorted it out. When he popped out to speak to me he asked if I was aware the engine oil was overfilled. I of course didn't as I don't check it between services! He gave the service manager one of those 'looks' when he told me about the oil so I wonder if this is a 'thing' with some engineers. Apparently they sucked some of mine out but out of interest I did check a few days later and the oil was still over the line on the dipstick but not by far (engine was cold and car had stood overnight). On a second matter to do with service. My NX service always had a Hybrid report whenever it went in to the garage but when I booked the service on-line it states a charge of £50.00 extra for that. Maybe I'm confusing things and the extra charge is for more than the standard examination but I would have thought that it is in Lexus interest to check these things as they warranty them for such an extended period.

Hi folks. My 2022 ux is having its 2nd service on Feb 9th. Not two years old until June but it did its first 12k early. It looks like its going to cost £505.00 -is that what we're all paying these days?

I think that's the most like answer. Thank you. I'm going to try EPA on it. Fingers crossed.

Perhaps I should upload the Dash cam from when mine was thrashed along an industrial estate road when I asked them to check a noise when driving slowly! They were even into my pack of tic-tacs left in the cup holder! Sadly there's nothing special about Lexus UK I fear.

It was 10 months old when I bought it. Slightly high mileage for its age but as I do about 5k a year it will soon level out. Sadly I don't know the previous owner. It's only a premium sport so I doubt it would be of interest for TV unless it was one of those Youtubers!

The picture may not be that clear but they're all over the screen. Not really where someone would stick a phone holder as it would be in the line of sight. Car has Sat Nav too! It's an odd one. Also, why don't they clean off? They return after every clean!

This isn't a problem guys but when my car mists up inside these rings are clearly visible. Any ideas what caused them? I thought maybe it had a replacement at some time and these are sucker marks but it's a Lexus marked windscreen. I do clean the inside window but they always appear, a bit like Crop Circles!😱 It may be from the original construction of course but I think the 'robots' wouldn't need to leave so many marks and why on the inside?

Apologies but I think I'm confusing the UX with the C-HR I had for a short time. The latter had wireless Apple but not Android. Looking at my UX handbook the connections are all wired. I don't entertain Apple stuff so only have Android. I bought this and it works flawlessly. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0BRQ3RWFX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 This hides away nicely under the storage tray in the center console.

Wireless AA is not an option with Lexus Europe I believe, nor with Toyota. Probably a licensing issue. A wireless dongle solves that and works flawlessly. Judging by the hash-up Toyota make with their apps I think that wireless integration may be too much for them to get their heads around. I think maybe the issue with having Apple and Android would mean deleting one of the phones from the system. Does the Apple phone connect wirelessly? Maybe best to start with that then try the wired connection after. Probably will not work but worth a try.

I don't think there is much difference size-wise to the current C-HR so rear seat is most likely claustrophobic. I bought a brand new C-HR R-Sport had it for 5 months, lost a packet as I soon went back to Lexus even though I realise the UX boot is even smaller. I am actually a fan of Toyota but they just do not drive the same with increased engine, tyre and lots of wind noise! Infotainment system was miles ahead of the UX I purchased that was only 4 months older than the C-HR though. I guess you pay your money and make your choice!

Sounds a bit obvious, for which I apologise, but have you given permission for the car to access your data? The request should pop up and you just click yes I think. On Android anyway.

Mine is 18 months old and the Bridgestone run flats were abysmally noisy on anything but ice-smooth tarmac and that's as rare as a slow Tesla driver around Leicestershire! Very pleased to be rid of them.

That's far too much to pay Steve, RF tyres aren't worth damaging your ears for that price!

Standard sound system, wireless dongle running Android Auto. Sounds great. This conversation reminds me of the CD v Vinyl conversation of old, apparently only about 2% of the population have perfect ears and none of them are in my age bracket! Now, if only Google and Amazon would grow up and work together I may one day ask 'OK Google, play Wish you were here' and actually hear that playing! Last time I got the 12 days of Christmas, comedy version!

Where are you in Leicestershire? I have a similar device, from Halfords, that you could try to see if it fits, if not too far away. I'm in Mountsorrel.

I've never bought a car that actually hit the advertised mpg yet and city driving wouldn't help to get there IMHO. Secondly, give that salesman a bonus for turning a disgruntled customer into a returning buyer! Been there myself, sucked in by those silver-tongued tempters! Into your pocket faster than a grand child!

Good info. Thanks. My Connected Services only shows 'Trial Services' and does not show any to add nor a settings button anywhere on the app. I assume that my car doesn't support anything more.

Good that he doesn't drive the RX. He'd have shoved the other car into orbit!

Can anyone tell which Lexus Jimmy Tarbuck was driving during his recent 'hit and run' escapade? Papers state a 'Green, 2 litre model' but I can't tell from the images and I'd like to know if my car is capable of shunting another 'the length of 3 houses' and still get me home! I wonder why he didn't stop? Answers on a postcard perhaps?

Worked brilliantly in my Volvo V40. Averaged 70+ to the gallon constantly and as I worked near London I was in traffic queues forever!

What about the CD player. It's so well hidden that it's hardly there at all!

Having followed much the same route, NX - retirement -UX, I can say that although the UX is lovely and the driver's area does not seem much smaller, overall I wish I'd stuck with an NX. Boot space is restrictive and the rear seat drop is now a regularly used feature. I am thinking that when we go to one car in 3 or 4 years time then the LBX may seem a logical step.

Never a truer word spoken.

Sorry I can't help Christof but just wanted to say how great your English and grammar is. You should hear my German!
