Has anyone taken their car to a dealer other than the selling dealer for warranty issues?

As mentioned, I bought my car from Sutherland, and get it serviced at Chatswood. 15k service was brilliant even though I bought my car from another dealer. As Dan said, it is my understanding that Lexus Australia get charged regardless. I have the free servicing for "X" amount of time and due to Lexus Aus paying, not the dealer, I am able to take the car anywhere for service.

Another member, Cevu, had his whole EMV replaced under warranty through another service provider. He was wrapped!!

In short, I don't think you will have hassles in my opinion.

Ah, I missed that while I was trying to read through quickly on my ipod!

I'm going to book it in for later this week

I have, no problems. Shouldn't make a difference. All warranty work is oncharged to Lexus Australia anyway. Besides Lexus and Nissan are a million miles apart in terms of service quality...

True, although I haven't had to deal with them yet so I'm not sure of what to expect!

I've been a little worried that another dealer wouldn't give you the same attention that the selling dealer would... At least that was what happened with my Nissan....

Is anyone here using aftermarket HID globes on a factory fitted HID car?

I'm looking for recommendations on 6000K replacements for the factory globes..

There are instructions on how to achieve this yourself in the owner's manual on Page 40.

Might be worth giving it a try before booking into a dealer.

Edt: Just tried it on my '09. Works perfectly. The doors now unlock when I put the car into Park. My annoyed passengers can now stop whinging about it :P

Hmm, might have to see if I can do this for my manual '250!

Was awkward explaining to a girl on a date the other night why the doors lock automagically!
