Has anybody upgraded their is300h with the new 2021/2 rear animated Strip lights?
-
As Lexus are issuing a years warranty every time you service your car with them until it reaches either 10 years old or 100k, I'm using Lexus until mine reaches end of criteria.

Under Bonnet rattle
steveo1973 replied to martslexus's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
I have the same problem but mine doesnt rattle yet lol. The bolts are tight but the heat shield moves quite freely. Is it not just the case of untightening the two top bolts, adding a normal steel washer and tightening up?? hence the extra tension will then hold it in place? Maybe its suppose to be loose, it might tighten up when it gets hot due to it expanding? I dont know. -
Sorry may be I should of been clearer on things, Yes I totally agree if your cars still under warranty then sure you should obviously use the stealer for any outstanding and future issues while you can. My opinion only relates to servicing a car out of warranty. As I still buy the sevice packs direct from lexus but use a good knowledgable independant to look after my car.

I bought a Lexus IS300H back in January on a 15plate and no it wasnt from a main dealer but full main dealer history and battery health check. Is that a good thing.....Im not so sure. Personally I would never get my car serviced at a main dealer and wont with this one. Their are plenty of specialist garages out their who probably employ ex what ever dealer technitions who will probably make a better job and do over your car as they appreciate the business. All I do is pay my 60 pound a year to Lexus to look after the battery and service it at a specialist!. Enough said 60k service at main dealer wanted 650 pound. Done at specialist using service pack from Lexus 220 pound!

Mines more of a catching squeek, like it does it every rotation of the wheel and the quicker you go the quicker the squeek until it disapears at speed. Which as some said could be catching breaks or hand break. But havent tried the hard breaking yet but will do and see if it does the trick.
-
I Have a 2015 IS300H with the same sort of squeeking behaviour. Its only just recently started and to be fair isnt that bad. I only hear it when using EV mode at slow mph and yes it seems to do it more when I turn left. Normal driving I dont hear anything and nothing when breaking. I was just wondering if one of the pads was scuffing or may be a caliper needs adjusting. Never the less its not in your league, just hope it doesnt develop into it though!!

Blimey what did people use to do before Parking sensors.....driving using your eyes maybe 😄
-
Its the sensor on each side of the car in the front Black lower mesh style grill
-
Yeah it does, Ive got a 15plate Executive addition and my phones a 2020 Samsung S10 Lite Plus but I cant get the Mirrorlink on my infotainment system from being ungreyed out so I'm able to selectc it. Prehaps as you said my cars software may be too old or not compatable.
-
Hi Chaps, I'm not sure if this has been covered before, If so I appologise. Just, has anybody been able to mirror their mobile with the infotainment system in their Is300h? I just have the standard Sat Nav system and wasnt sure if it can be connected at all. Im able to connect via bluetooth and stream youtube music I just wanted to know if you can stream movies too?
-
Nope 🤔....why do you ask?
-
Probably cheapest way to fix issue....is to just turn it off lol
-
I Have a IS300H, 15plate, and I have exactly the same issue. Sometimes it works for a couple of days, then it will come on again. It's nothing to do with dirty sensors I dont think, more likely a faulty one or water has got inside the connection. They are not cheap to buy from Lexus about 80 pound, but I managed to find an exact copy from a HongKong website for 20 pound delivered. I do have it now and its looks identical but yet to fit it! Might work, Might not! lol

The S mode works better when you have the gear change in manual sport mode +/-. By using the paddles it will hold the revs longer like a proper manual and uses both the petrol and electric engine together to make use of the full 220bhp and yes it does transform the car and makes it great for over taking! Also using the ASR button turned on, turns on the fake engine sound into the cabin through the speaker under the dash which yes is a gimmick but can be fun if you like that sort of thing. I do.

Just had my 60k service including spark plugs and all genuine parts bought direct from Lexus by a specialist for £230 all in! May not been by lexus but by a specialist using their 60k service kit. Well happy 😊 -

For a start put it against the cars its suppose to be at not a 328 bmw. Its rivals are c220d, bmw 320d and the audi 2.0d all for the company car buyers see the YouTube comparisons. -
