hello Alex Sorry to read about the issues you had with the digital wing mirrors. Other than slight misting issues previously I wrote about t my units appear to be weathering well after 2&1/2 years. However, was browsing Lexus UK web site to look at Latest Takumi ES 300 and Digital mirror were not offered as an option>>>>

Hello alexi i have the digital mirrors and have had them for two years now,and a great fan of them , but I always sa they like marmite love or hate…… Yes with temperature changes especially in damp weather the lens internally do mist up and give the displays as you showed. It’s a pain but if you run the heaters for long enough they will clear. The heaters do turn off automatically so repeat the process, the wing mirrors are prone to this especially if the use power washer on your car. in winter I put a glove on the wing mirrors ! Stops them freezing. also check the seal between the top and bottom halves of the wing mirror assembly is water getting in there? please is the problem on both wing mirrors?

Youngsters again showing us mature folk how to do it ….😂

There are shots of possible ES 2024 /2025 models if u go to google and Lexus US

Have a good look at the boot lid. There are plenty places there to hide ……

Betsy’s, twin sister the black one

If i want accurate sat nav i use apple car play or google maps. The internal Lexus sat nav I’m afraid to say is well below par when compared to our German friends systems…… at present Lexus link+ app doesn’t send destination to car

If u buy 2022 model it has touch screen capabilities and apple car play or android auto

I know I need to get a life but following the series Gangs of Oslo. The ES is hybrid and probably a premium model or Takumi. It had an ML system and seat .memory buttons. the scene when the Es is in car park you can hear the electric motor wine. So genuine sound track ….. couple of whoopsies though in the film Cops in ES chasing a BMW X5. M sport down an auto ban and X5 going hell for leather err the ES shouldn’t catch it ……… it did in the film When starting the ES with the power button sound track made it sound like and American V8 muscle car ha ha ha also the ES never got its body dirty in the series …….

This inclement weather has allowed me to watch a bit more on Netflix behold ‘Gangs of Oslo’ episode 1 with in first few minutes main cop character drives up to some yobbos in a Black ES300h with tan interior ! at least makes a change from seeing them BMW. Audi & RangeRover vehicles used by the baddies ……. any one clocked an ES onTV?

It is all very sad to read on this forum the tales of woe about stolen ES ‘s and the damage it is doing to Lexuses image. clearly the head of Lexus Uk is not doing anything about it perhaps it is time to have a delegation of ES owners and demand a meeting face to face…

A point to note the adaptive hi beam when activated is as powerful as the manual setting for hi beam . The manual hi beam light pattern is more concentrated in forward view….

Has anyone driven Hardknott pass in Cumbria in an ES ?

The send to car of destinations doesn’t work……. No soft key to upload to car ……. These are very basic faults with the app. I find it incredible that no one in Lexus or Toyota IT have the nounce to check the app works before realising to the public!! thats absolutely basic makes one wonder how much other software on the car they have got wrong too……

Try this when stationary and tires cold set the tyre pressures to 2.4 bar or(35 psi) go to TPMS menu and select recalibrate and then drive until the tpms shows the tire pressure. It can take a while for the reading s to come and stabilise. if this fails to work could be fault in tpms system … visit mr Lexus …. i

Enjoy your Takumi relax and drive with the ML system at a good volume ……

I came across this screen yesterday as was looking on the menu system regarding sat nav map update i have the 2022 model. the terms were ticked accepted , I left the page and returned to main menu and default screen which is my Map screen, All okay now. could it be a software issue with yours Colin ? perhaps a visit to mr Lexus might help ……

I always use shell fuel as my local station in shell. It also has pay at pump. I use E10 for local trips but always use the v power for long trips . I have the shell rewards programme and they give me money back after I have filled up 10 times and more if I use v power Subjectively the v power gives a smoother response and quieter engine noise and better fuel mpg .

I don’t think so because turn by turn is the Lexus navigation system waze is used through apple car play Waze certainly doesn’t work in my ES head up display

Hello the screens are attached to a non moveable mount attached to the A pillar.

Lexus Preston. Have found purchase and Service par Excellance

Some images to help explain🙂 IMG_2543.mov

Hello guys to answer the questions raised.. The digital mirrors fold when locking the car if auto lock is enabled. They are flatter to the car than the conventional mirrors… The near side digital screens on the A pillar is in the eyeline of the driver so not necessary to put next to binnacle in car centre. perhaps my only comment would be for really tall drivers who have a drivers seat position well back. is the display screen big enough to see clearly….

I have the Takumi ES with digital mirrors and after some 20k miles prefer them to the more conventional mirrors now I have got used to them. However they are going to be like marmite … love them or hate them, especially as a £1600 up front cost option. For me the advantages are the graticules inbedded in the image which make parking much easier along with the wide angle views when indicating turning left or right or reversing. With the screens mounted essentially on the left and right A pillars it is easier to glance at the screen images rather than having to actually look for the mirrors especially if the drivers seat position is closer to the steering wheel ( for us drivers of shorter stature) any downside ? Yes night time driving ….the video software just cannot cope with the intense light level from head lights from traffic coming up from the rear contributing to the extreme hi and lo contrast light levels. Lexus need to improve this along with the overall digital image quality. My camera lens do seem to mist up if the outside air is cold or damp, but the internal heaters clear the image in less than 2 mins. Also if the ES is parked in the rain the camera lens housing needs to be wiped dry of water before driving, to get the rear and 360 views but this is no more than on glass mirrors. however driving in the rain the lens seems pretty clear of rain drop splatter. The mirror housing does stick out from the car which is often quite a talking point from passers-by looking at the car and asling are they your mirrors ??…… and yes they do look like handles to grab (a red rag to a bull for errant youths looking for mischief) …… heavens knows how much a replacement would be ……
