  • Lexus service book discprepancy? 5 Jun 2007 (Forum)
    purchased a 04 reg IS200 for 10k from a Lexus dealer 2 weeks ago. Despite being assured it was full Lexus service history on the day of collection no service history was forthcoming. After a great deal of perseverance and several weeks was presented with a 'sham' of a service book that had been filled in 20 minutes earlier....and they wouldn't even admit to it being a duplicate despite the Lexus 2007 stamp on the 2004 service slot!!

    Hello    Which is the best engine oil for this lexus CT 1.8 Hybrid: 0w20 or 5W30 fully synthetic.  I ask as different oil checkers state different grades.  I am told it can use both but 0w20 is what the dealers use.   Any thoughts   Thank you

  • Lexus RX 450h - Official mpg figures 23 Feb 2013 (Forum)
    I have been extremely disappointed with the fuel consumption of this car, and complaining to Lexus, ever since I bought it in 2009.  I had moved on from a RX400h which had an official EU figure of 34.1 mpg and in practice actually easily achieved slightly over 30 mpg.  Lexus are claiming 44.8 mpg for the RX450h and I foolishly had expected to achieve a figure of at least 39 mpg.
  • parking sensors 22 Jun 2003 (Forum)
    G'Day appreciate advice, pse: want to fit parking sensor(s) to rear of Lexus 200 SE - Lexus dealer quotes £371 to supply/fit "general" (not Lexus) kit, which involves removing bumper to instal rather than drilling.

  • Lexus losing the plot on customer servic 20 Apr 2006 (Forum)
    As my diary is filling up for this month, I asked for a delivery date. The leasing firm chased the dealer (and Lexus UK) and apprently Lexus previously provided "misleading information" about progress of vehicles at the factory. Latest date provided is a 25th May delivery to the dealer (not my house). Given the need to prepare the car and add some dealer fit extras, I won't be getting it until June although there was a vague mention of a courtesy car.
  • Lexus IS300 Sportcross - Aftermarket Replacement Parking Sensors 28 Mar 2015 (Forum)
    Hi All, My Lexus IS300 Sportcross has rear parking sensors which have failed. Lexus want to charge me £99 just to investigate the problem and replacement parts have a reputation for being expensive, so i'm thinking it might be more cost effective to get have the sensors (and also have fitted additional front sensors) replaced with aftermarket items.
  • Insurance - Sort of Lexus related 25 Oct 2005 (Forum)
    Right-I've started a thread because I feel the topic deserves it. I've run a few quotes through for this Lexus for me and not one insurer has been able to provide an online quote. I'm going to ring a few tomorrow and see but is this because they won't quote me at all or because it's going to be pricey? I can put a 2.0 T S60 in and it quotes me £1200 but the 2.4T along with the Lexus asks me to ring.
