  1. Looking for a replacement shift knob for my f sport is300h . The current and original one has some wear on the perforated leather piece that I hate looking at 😞 . Has anyone had any experience of buying an aftermarket Copy piece from Ali express or eBay?
  2. Exact same issue on a 2016 is300h . Thanks 👍
  3. Anyone else noticed this ? Some slight condensation forming in my headlights:( A bit disappointing to be honest as I knew this can be a sign of a failure of the HID headlight in the future with moisture ingress
  4. Thanks cadman. I ordered a set of front links there from my local autofactors. Not that expensive. To me the lateral movement in the link is too much so that's why I'm suspicious of them . I'm going to try what you suggested though 👍
  5. Hi all Been trying to diagnose a very slight knock from the front end of my 2016 f sport 300h . It happens ever so slightly over rough ground . I have noted today how easy it is to move my front drop link left and right with my hand with hardly any force. Should these drop links be alot more solid or stiff and would this be the cause of my noise if they are failing ?
  6. I had the same sweet ish smell on my is300h . I changed the cabin/pollen filter to an activated carbon filter amd.it sorted it . 12 months later , no smells and I run my aircon all year round
  7. Hi all. I've noticed this happening a few times . I shift into P and after a second or 2, the shifter kind of clicks and moves a bit like it locks. Is this normal ? Is300h f sport
  8. To update this . Now that external temps are on the up .the aircon / climate control is back to clearing up internal window condnlensation perfectly .
  9. Hi All Just had a 2 hour journey there in near freezing weather conditions and I noted that the windows struggled a bit to clear interior condensation . I run the Aircon all year round to keep windows condensation free but I'm just wondering does the Aircon not work when outside temps are below a certain temperature? I had an Audi once where the aircon would not activate below 3 degrees outside temp
  10. Hi all.just wondering is it an 860mm or 850mm belt for the is300h v ribbed belt /water pump belt ? There is 2 sizes available
  11. Has anyone noted this ? It took me 3 attempts this morning to erase the tyre pressure warning light off the dash with the reset button due to the cold weather
  12. Hi all .I'm just wondering when was the recall on the is300h for the water pump ? Also is there a way of telling was it replaced? My 2016 fsport has 90k miles on the clock and has full lexus service history
  13. Surprised the hybrid battery pack was changed as they don't fail to often .what mileage is on it ?
  14. To update I bought a set of Denso Hybrids from Euro Car parts and tested them today on a wet 2 hour journey .I'm well impressed .no noise , and do the job well . Maybe not as fancy looking as the Bosch Aerotwins but doing the job well
  15. I have Bosh Aerotwins fitted to my is300h f sport for the last 6 months. Very disappointed with their noise levels after 6 months of usage . I'm hearing alot about Denso Hybrids . What's everyone's option /opinion ?
  16. Normal .mine does the exact same from the day I bought it . 2016 fsport 👍
  17. Hi all Just wondering do all F sport Is300h come with AVS and is it active all the time ? Also what is Sport + mode ?
  18. Just on this topic . I think the steering is heavy in the is300h anyways . I noted this from day one on my 2016 f sport
  19. I agree. Red painted calipers isn't my thing at all . Black or a dark silver/grey looks clean and tidy
  20. Had an Audi sline A6 for 5 years and made the switch to an is300h Fsport at the beginning of this year . Build quality wise , I'd have the Audi slightly ahead . My is300h is a fresh car and has some creaks from dash and slight wind noise from windows when at speed. Reliability wise , the Lexus is street's ahead .the first 6 months of owning the audi broke my heart . Only for a good warranty with the dealer, I would have been out of pockets a huge amount. After all had been fixed , the audi was a great car . But as I said , I'd have more faith in the lexus . Comfort , even though the audi was am sline with 20inch alloys and a hard suspension, I think it was a more comfortable car than the lexus . Driving experience, the lexus to me is a very nice place to be .Long journeys are a delight and the fact that it's a smaller car than my old audi, means it's easier to park, manoeuvre etc. Running costs , the lexus is a petrol, the audi was a diseal. Enough said . I went with the is300h as I only drive my car at the weekend, I have a company vechile for during the week . Service costs seem about the same aswell. Overall I honestly think the is300h is a great buy for anyone seeking Reliability, comfort on long journeys and a good driving experience. Also there is literally thousands of Audis and BMW on the road these days . The lexus to me is a bit unique
  21. Here’s a good product I've just found on the Mister Auto app: Condenser, air conditioning https://www.mister-auto.ie/condenser/van-wezel/56015701/ Irish site .but may post to you
  22. Noise is actually from the water pump area . It was a crazy warm day when it happened, after a 30 mile run . The noise hasn't happened since
  23. Mine is the same .2016 f sport .I also thought this was strange .I have read other forums and it seems normal
  24. Sorry about the video. I acutally thought it was about 20 seconds long .but turned out to be 3 seconds. I scanned all with carista and all 👍
