Re-read your reply and it makes sense now ... lol. Long day. 🙂
-
lol ... no idea what you have just said, Phil but I will investigate. Thanks.
-
Any suggestions for resolving if it is the dashcam? Obviously not wanting to spend £300 on a cam setup and then not use it for the sake of a better radio signal. lol.
-
It is a Nextbase too. Front and rear. 😞
-
Yes!

Thanks Phil, I work in Bristol and can get the BBC channels ( BBC 2 and BBC 4) but as soon as I get back to Wales DAB is lost. FM is OK till I get home (Pontnewynydd near Pontypool) then in and out. Maybe something wrong with my receiver! Although I've had the car for about three years and it has always been the same
-
Hi guys, I live in South Wales and accept that my radio will likely be receiving a weaker signal due to the hills and valleys. But, I cannot get DAB at all and FM is intermittent to say the least. Is there anything I can do or get to boost the signal or is as good as it is going to get? I have the standard radio as supplied with the is300h executive model.

Thanks everyone. I was told this a year ago and there was 50% left on the pad. Now they say 10% left on pad. My local garage agree that a change would be prudent. I appreciate all of your replies. Apologies for taking so long to acknowledge, my broadband has been down for over a week 😞

Hi all, I have been told I need a front disc and pad change as a result of my last service on my 2017 is300h. They have given me a quote of £520. I know that I can buy the parts and do it myself if they are traditional wheel off, calliper off, screw out, disc replace and calliper back on with new pads in. Is it going to be this way or is there something weird about this that needs £520 Lexus to do. TIA.

Hi all, I have a 2017 is300h and noticed today that the rear passenger door does not lock when I lock the car. I can force lock by locking inside but then doesn't open at all from outside. Anyone have any ideas?

After market tyre pressure sensors

After market tyre pressure sensors
Phooey replied to Phooey's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
Now I am confused! I thought the TPMS valves was the sensor? -
Hi all, I have the IS300h and will be fitting new alloys soon. I was thinking of getting some aftermarket tyre pressure sensors to fit into the new alloys ready. I have heard that it is difficult and some say impossible to get the car to recognise the new sensors without specialist equipment. Can any please advise on tis. If I bought a new aftermarket set, would I be able to get them recognised by the car myself. If I would, would I still have the same problem if I bought Lexus branded sensors. I have minimal mechanical knowledge. Thanks in advance.

Thanks guys. That makes sense. 🙂

Hi guys, thanks for your input. The service stamps are at correct intervals. New 3/17 9097 4/18 18134 05/19 24058 5/20 when I bought it 33617 12/20 42945 10/21 51781 5/22 Plugs definitely done. MOT - (new tyre , wiper blades and headlamp washer jet) and service £905. Says on the invoice carried out 60 000 mile service. I am more curious why they did it 10 000 miles early and I shall certainly make sure it is an interim next time when it will be 60 000 miles.
-
Morning Roy, thanks for responding. Last service stamp was 42 000. It's only five years old so 51 000 doesn't seem out of place to me. First registered 2017. I will have a look into the service plan 🙂
-
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this for me. I rang my dealer for a service, car reached 51 000 miles, I've serviced every 10k since bought, and it was booked in. 51 000 miles on the clock but when I got the bill and looked at all the details I noticed they did a 60 000 mile service, the most expensive service to date. Before I query it with them I thought I'd get your thoughts and save making a fool of myself 🙂 Why would they do an expensive 60 000 mile service at 51 000 and what happens when it gets to 60 000? Will they try to do another?

Daylight saving clock change

Hopefully I'll remember where it is then and sort it in a minute. 🙂 -
Daylight saving clock change
Phooey replied to Phooey's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
Sorted! I can't believe how crazy this has been. On my system, whatever system it happens to be, I go into <SETUP> <NAVIGATION> and there is a SYSTEM TIME tab! Maybe I have been a little dense here but I wouldn't have imagined having to go through navigation to get the the clock settings! Done now anyway so thanks to all who tried to help. I really appreciate your support. -
Daylight saving clock change

Interesting question! I assumed standard for the model. Is there a way to find this out from the car info? -
Daylight saving clock change
Phooey replied to Phooey's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
In the manual it says go into Set up then General and then there is a tab for either clock or system time above the language. I have scrolled completely through this last one and there is no 'Clock' or 'System Time' -
Daylight saving clock change

Hi Paul, this is what I am saying. My car does NOT have this! All online and the manual says this. 😞 -
Daylight saving clock change
Phooey replied to Phooey's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
Hi Herbs, it didn't change automatically last year hence attempting to do it manually this year. The manual says select Set Up>General>System time and change to daylight saving. But mine doesn't have the System Time option. It doesn't do it automatically. Last year I forgot and got to places late thinking I was well in time! 😞 -
Hi all, Spring has sprung and here we are ready to change all of our clocks again. I have already sorted the manual clock on the dash but I can't figure out how to change the clock in the satnav (the one that predicts your arrival time). Last summer I had it run an hour behind until they went back again in the autumn. I have tried the manual suggestions of menu>Settings>General>System Time but there is no 'System Time' on mine. Or time or anything that implies time! Can anyone point me in the right direction, please? I tried a search on here and YouTube but what I did find didn't work. 😞
-
Yep, I got one too. For peace of mind it is a cheap £795 I think.
