Hi all Can anyone point me in the right direction to purchase a techstream cable and software ? Thanks

MOT(nct) was done and passed only a few months ago .thank god. Just to update I took all apart and re done all . I sanded the old pads flat .re greased all clips and brackets and re fitted . And all seems fine .I tested the caliper pistons and both of them extend and retract fine . It's clearing the rust on both discs it's seems bit slowly .I will keep this thread updated👍

Thanks for your in depth reply 👍 much appreciated. Whats strange is that its happening on both new front discs? I'm wondering could it be anything to do with the old pads and the wear shape on them from my original discs ? I did note that the pads were a tight fit .I did take the caliper carrier brackets off and give them a clean with a wire brush .I'm going to investigate later today and I'm praying it's not a seized caliper piston . Hopefully not , as like i said its happening on both sides

Evening all I recently treated my F Sport IS300H to a new set of front discs . I re used my old pads as there is only 1000kms wear on them . I know the way to go Is to always replace new discs with new pads but in this case I kept the old ones. I did a thorough job , cleaning all and re greasing caliper slider pins with the correct grease . I've driven about 150km on the new discs and noted the pads aren't fully contacting/wearing on the new discs . Any ideas ? Note the pic attached is not my car but very similar to what is happening on mine . Only contacting outer edge of disc

Access Lexus online service history

Well I managed to access the service history online . I'm a bit under whelmed. It lists the services done at the UK main dealer from 2016 to 2019 but that's about it . No detail, only the hybrid health check . -
Access Lexus online service history

To be honest I'm a little disappointed with this . My f sport 2016 was imported into Ireland in 2019 .prior to this it spent 3 years in the UK and according to the service booklet ,had regular services at a main dealer ., and yet no record of this online . I appreciate the service booklet is there to verify the service history, but some detail on the services would be nice -

Ebay . A cheaper alternative to replacing it with a genuine part . Link to the ebay part here https://www.ebay.ie/itm/314352451546?mkevt=1&mkpid=0&emsid=e11050.m43.l1123&mkcid=7&ch=osgood&euid=6ac8f26beebf4d9185f17d4e6eb4bc35&bu=45599006487&osub=-1~1&crd=20230224024533&segname=11050 -

Thanks for that . It seems I have all the options you have there except for vehicle service. My car must not have had its services recorded online sadly -

Can I just ask where are you logging on and what section are you going into? Is it through the lexus Link app ? -
Access Lexus online service history
Colinb623 replied to Colinb623's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
So I only can access online service history if previous owner or owners have registered the car for this ? I'm very surprised Lexus doesn't record service digitally for new owners of used cars to access -

Very easy to fit . Clipped down the leather gater and screwd off the original knob .screwed on new one and clipped back up the gater They had no OEM . Just 3 shades of black and a carbon looking one . I agree the piano black would be nicer but for what I paid (30euros) I'm happy and I may change it down the road 👍 -

Thanks for reply .I have done all that and registered my car but cannot find the service history section 😞 -
Can I ask what type of Grease you used on slider pins ? I'm doing mine soon and thinking of using this.

I plan on getting my 2016 IS300H F Sport 100k mile service done at the Lexus Main Dealer at the end of this year , and I'm just wondering can I purchase a Lexus Relax Warranty through the main Dealer? The current Warranty on my vehicle has just ran out , I had a years warranty from a non Lexus Car Dealer and as i plan on keeping the car a couple of more years , extending a Warranty is something I'm thinking of

Has anyone tried these ? I picked up a set on Ebay to cover my slightly rusted alloy wheel nuts .? A bit disappointing as the car isn't even that old .:(

A year on IS300H F Sport
Colinb623 replied to Colinb623's topic in Lexus IS 300h / IS 250 / IS 200t Club
MotorDevil , I think you will agree its a full time job trying to keep a black car clean 🥲 -
A year on from purchase and I must admit I'm very happy with my F Sport IS300H. No issues whatsoever. I've clocked up about 5500 miles in the year and the car hasn't missed a beat . Great on long runs , I get about 45mpg on motorway runs which I think is fantastic. The FSport suspension and wheels can be a bit rough on bad roads but nothing major . I bought this car as I wanted something different and reliable and I wanted to move away from diseal. Overall I'm very happy . Here's to another year or so of trouble free motoring 👍
