Hi,
my 300h F sport does the same, loud raving at 50mp, very loud and annoying sound. Seems like its from speakers but ASC is off.
Is it manufactured issue? My fried with 300h CVT doesn’t have this loud noise, any advice?

Hello everyone,
as you can see this is my first post here. Being a member on other forums makes me confident to post here and get some feedback.
I own a 2006 GS450h which I bought used from the UK 1 1/2 years ago. The car was an approved used with full service history. It now has 60k miles on it.
About a month ago the engine light shown in the dash and I was reading check hybrid system. I took the car to Lexus garage. They checked with their diagnostic and said that this could be a control unit on the batteries or the batteries. We tried the CU but the problem was still there. So they now say it's the batteries, they cost 4k plus labour so I Decided to ask on the forum if anyone else faced the same problem.
From their side Lexus states that this is the first time they have batteries failing on these cars. They search on their network and said this is the first case in the EU.
Anyone who could share some knowledge would be very appreciated
Hi,
I had almost the same with my old GS450H 2007 (full lexus history) but according to Lexus service center my problem was gearbox - pump failure at gearbox. The price was £8000 to repair. The main problem was that when I stop at traffic light for example, the car doesn’t move, i had to restart the car and it works again. I refused this repair and took the car to other specialist...they held the car for quite long time and tried to replace gearbox (it would cost me £1200) but failed. I then found someone who bough my car for a good price (independent car garage).
When you repair your issue, get rid off the car but warn the customer (just to be nice) 🙂
Ps. Unfortunately, Hybrid car manufactures (Toyota) gives only 10 years for hybrid system.

Hi,
I had no issue connecting my new Iphone XS max to RX450H (2010) from Iphone 6 plus. You may need to delete previous phone history/ settings in car settings.
The only issue i have is 3-4 seconds delay in playing video though my phone via Bluetooth in my Lexus IS300H. No idea what it could be. Did you have this with your Iphone 6s?

Hi all,
have any of you experience delay in sound when playing video via Bluetooth (phone paired to lexus premium sound/media system)? My has around 3-4 seconds delay. Video on the phone is fine but the sound, that comes on lexus speakers, delayed.

Hi all, i am just wondering about the cvt gear box in the is300h F lexus. How reliable are they and is there anything i need to know about using them ect. When do i need to get the oil changed in them ect.
Thanks
Best gear box ever - fast, smooth, quit. Use and enjoy as you wish.
be mindfull - Lexus normally gives 10 years warranty for its hybrid system, witch is part of CVT. I would not keep any hybrid car over 10 years.

Has anyone tried premium petrol in their IS300h? I've seen Honest John in the Telegraph twice say something like " why pay £40,000 for your car and put the cheapest petrol in the tank?".
Hi,
Yes, I do sometimes, Shell V-Power for my old GS450h and current IS 300H F sport. It does improve MPG (just a little bit) and gives slightly quicker response when accelerating.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a portable jump start unit? There seem to be quite a number available now for around £30 or so. Are they any good?
My main requirements would be
- a small genuinely portable unit, and
- enough power to get a Lexus hybrid car into the "Ready" state..
Hi,
I personally would not buy jump start untill fully understand your car requirements of correct power for jump start. My previous Lexus GS450H run out of Battery (I left lights on on the rush), my friend offered jump start but as AA was only 30min away, I refused his help. When AA arrived they said:*do not jump start hybrid system without proper professional jump start equipment and knowing exact voltage required. If i not mistaken, comnected computer showed them that 430v requires to start the car.
I then asked Lexus service departmentand they confirmed - be carefull when jump start as it may “destroy” your car. It may cause huge issue between your hybrid system and CVT gear box! (Cost for repair - £8000 by Lexus)
AA is free for me (benefit from bank) and it doesn’t take long for them to arrive.
Just a personal opinion....

Bloody hell has someone been cleaning it with a brillo pad?
You won't be able to remove those marks without adding any more yourself.
Yeah....I bough this car from Lexus...I wonder what they did to it.

This is probably the best you could use. The plastic cover won't come separately. They mark very easily so you do have to be careful when cleaning.
