Hi all, I have some leaking rear shocks on my IS250 :(

Quote to replace $610 each + labour.

Anyone know of any other after market options or second hand ones available in Sydney ? Also, if anyone know of any good mechanics that could fit them also near Castle Hill or Homebush it would be terrific.

Thanks again !

Cheers ...

Ouch!!! Cheaper to get a full set of coil overs

I'd go the F Sport suspension over any coilovers.They're designed specifically for the car.

The F-Sport Suspension are a direct replacement for your standard ones.

Coilovers allow you to adjust the ride hight and damper - Soft to Hard

Go to Heasmans Steering in Sydenham NSW or at least call them. They really know their stuff.

Is there much difference between stock is250 suspension and F-sport suspension in regards to height?

Hi Learningman

Did you get this sorted? I have been told my shocks are shot and need replacing. Pedders quoted $980 for a pair Koni's fitted, including 4 wheel alignment. $770 for the shockers, then labour and alignment etc.

Apparently they rang Lexus for OEM part pricing and were quoted $660 each. ouch

Reinvigorating this thread. I have a 2008 250 x version and soon will need rear shocks replaced. What are your recommendations these days? I believe it is sports suspension similar to the Sport variant that was around in the early years.

Just replace the shocks with a known brand unless you want to fiddle and adjust.

Its not always as easy as some think. To keep balance with coil overs or complete sport suspension its advisable to replace all around.

      LS460 Folding Mirror Doesn't Stop.

      Hi. The driver's mirror on my RHD LS460 folds in and out okay, but when folding in, it gets to the stop position but keeps trying to go further, so it continuously clicks. Is this repairable, or will the mirror have to be replaced? Has anybody fixed this problem? If so, how? Cheers.

      Carplay issues with iPhone IOS 18.1 making & receiving calls

      Just wondering if anyone else has recently encountered the following issue: I have two phones now running with IOS 18.1, an iPhone SE and iPhone 16 and they both are having the same problem, i.e. when making a phone call, the party I'm calling can just barely make out what it is I'm saying. I first encountered the problem with my iPhone 16 and at first thought it was the cable connecting to the USB-C on the phone. I went out and purchased a wireless CarPlay adapter which circumvented the problem. However today I needed to connect the iPhone SE and it too got the same problem in that when making a phone call, the person I'm calling can just barely make out what it is I'm saying. Checking sites in the USA it appears to be a common problem. UPDATE: The problem did not exist using IOS versions prior to IOS 18

      Driving Light

      Hi Peter, After taking onboard your suggestions and a few good nights sleep to mull over options the new driving lights are installed and working. No holes were drilled into vehicle but I did cut a small slot into back of the larger plastic fuse box cover/lid to source power from jump start terminal. (12v battery is in boot of NX 450h+) The wiring was a little fiddly but not having to take the dash apart was a huge bonus to installing the XBB kit. Was able to ‘reuse’ relay base from wiring harness supplied with Ultra Vision lights. Fitted a 20 amp inline fuse as lights draw 13.2 amps total. Smart button works a treat so can have high beam on without driving lights. So glad that I found this forum when I did, Neil
