Finally got my car looked at for the engine rattle on startup and misbehaving auto dipping mirrors.

They have now ordered all the engine bits needed to correct the startup rattle, and have also ordered a new set of side mirrors to replace the current ones. Car is almost 2 years old and so I will get the work done along with it's second service.

They picked up my car, gave me a loaner, and were going to drop my car back but I was going passed so collected it instead. I didn't have to plead or beg, they just assessed the items and make the judgement themselves.

WooHoo. Very happy with Lexus service. :P

New mirrors? My dealer says they found nothing wrong with mine, even though they re-adjust at all sorts of angles.

I should go to your dealer...

Having driven from Sydney to Adelaide in the past, I think I will learn to live with my wayward mirrors. But thanks for the invite..

It's strange, but my mirrors suddenly started behaving themselves again a few weeks back and have been fine ever since.

Funny, mine have been less bothersome recently. However I have already had it looked at and the parts are on order. I should hear soon. Mirrors and start up rattle will be fixed together with my 2nd service.

      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
