Cool... :)

Thanks for the quick reply and very much appreciate it

Hi Everyone,

Just a quick question (sorry, but I haven't look at the manual) in regards to the car battery.

If I disconnect the car battery, I am aware that the power windows will need to be reset, but will it wipe out previous address data inputs from the GPS NAV unit as well as the memory seat settings?

Hi Saj & welcome,

As for having after market parking sensors installed they cannot be integrated into the sat nav screen and will only be audio beeps, even if you choose to get the sensors installed by a Lexus dealer. Sensors that shows in the nav screen are installed straight from the factory during the production of the car (sports & sports lux models)

You will need to have the side view mirror button to either the left or right and not have it in the middle for it to automatically tilt down.

As for the auto fold, this feature came out with the 09 models.

Hi ilv1004s,

Just wondering if the CF side panels has been purchased yet?

Also, are they easy to install?

Thanks

Kind Regards

Jess

Hi Everyone,

Gave my car a wash and decided to take some photos :)

nice mods and thanks for sharing

i like the LED puddle lamps, was it easy to take the side mirrors apart to change the stock to led?

Finally got to put on my new 18" F Sport Hyper Silver rims! My first mod :)

Front 18 by 8 with 225/40/18 Bridgestone RE050A

Rear 18 by 8.5 with 255/40/18 Bridgestone RE050A

The pics were taken straight away with my camera phone (that's why the quality is grainy) but will take some more shots this weekend with my other camera.

Seeing those pics of the IS350 F-Sport is very nice

You and the others must have had an excellent time driving all of those wonderful cars :)

WOW!!!!

Can't wait to see the IS350 in the dealership in Jan for my service and see how much for a change over will be :)

The price on both the F-Sport and SL is very - VERY attractive :) :) :)

I've attached some pics that I have just taken this afternoon. My camera phone doesnt have the best quality, but as I have mentioned that the finish on these Sports alloys are 'Graphite' in colour (gunmetal grey)

Hi,

I just sent you a PM a few minutes ago

I purchased a brand new set of OEM 18” Graphite “Sports” Alloys wheels from Sewell a few months ago and was intending of finally putting on some tyres and into my car… but now I have a change of mind as I would like to put on a different set of 18’s instead.

Would anyone be interested?

Hi everyone,

I have a pair or Rear (and only rear) F-Sport 18 x 8.5 alloys (without center caps) that I am looking to selling. They are genuine OEM and if anyone is interested, just send me a PM.

http://lexus.com.au/model/is250/fsport/

Yes, the same darker ones... and I just can't wait to put them on my car!

This morning from Sewell parts I've ordered x2 18x8 and x2 18x8.5 Liquid Graphite 5 spoke wheels. Aka 'Sports' alloys here in Australia. I've always wanted those alloys and I rarely see them on the roads :)

Thanks for the feed back and very much appreciate it.

I've done it and made the order for a set of 18". Now I need to see if I can trade in my current 17" for some new tires sometime soon :)

Hi everyone,

I am considering of changing my current 17" alloys to 18". But what I was wondering is, with the change to 18" affect the ride quality but a great deal?

Is it worth sacrificing the ride quality?Any feedback on experience or opinions would be great :)

Thanks everyone

Hi Bartek,

Just wondering how many Km's have you done on your first service. Mine is reaching 1 year and so far I have only done around about 2700km. I know that I will need to get it serviced due to the 12month (or 15,000) recommendation, but was just curious.

Hi pygothian,

I know this off topic... but I am sorry to hear about your wife passed away.

I know what you mean. When I went to an Audi dealer the same thing happened and I can't help but feel like they would be looking at me and think that I don't have the funds to buy their cars. Besides... the IS was the right choice and it has always been and 2 years of waiting has paid off :P

By the way, I forgot to mention that the 2009 SL comes with three keys. Two FOBs and one Credit Card sized key.

I have a 2009 model SL and yes you can change from full auto to semi by 'down shifting' the paddles when... let say you are in 4th gear for example. Then you will be in manual mode. It's quite handy when you are going to overtake.

No rattles, has standard VDIM, white stitching on my black interior trim (looks quite good), the black/grey wood trim instead of the red.

The L-Care program is in other words the Lexus Premium Extended warranty. I purchased this when we signed up for our IS and our sales manager even mentioned that it covers even the sitching on the leather seats. So in total, if you purchase this, you have a total of 7 years warranty.

It really depends on how long you inted on keeping your IS
