  1. hi guys, i went to tint-a car today and i got a price of 295 for the midnight express or 450 for the Bolle stuff.. i m told that the midnight express may(will) block am reception. I do listen to AM (i am not that old :), to those that have the midnight express, do you find this to be true? is your AM reception working?
  2. thanks for all your recommendations, i think i'll go for f-sport stuff to keep the warranty..but shipping costs is a killer..:) anyone want to off load their f-sport stuff?
  3. It worked flawlessly for me, but I should note I've refused the last few system upgrades offered through iTunes. If you have already upgraded your iPhone to OS 4.0 or later, refer to this thread: http://au.lexusowner...?showtopic=9366 Actually, forget I mentioned the thread relating to iPhone OS 4.0 - that only relates to using your iPhone as an iPod-like music player via USB. Transferring contacts from your iPhone works via Bluetooth and, as I mentioned, I didn't have a problem with that. Trouble is, I can't remember what procedure I used! The manual suggests that the procedure will differ based on the Bluetooth profiles that the phone supports, but doesn't precisely state the steps involved in each type of procedure ... Anyhow, I found this on the Net: http://lexusbluetooth.letstalk.com/brands/lexus-bt/pdf/551_08Navi.pdf (To pair other phones with any Lexus, start here: http://www.lexus.com/models/IS/accessories/bluetooth.html) If you still have problems, let me know. I'll try to reset my contacts in the nav system, then I'll tell you exactly what steps I followed. THanks, very informative.. my car is going to melbourne city lexus to fix the sunroof rattle.. the tech guy said it's common and they have a fix for it..he also said there is a fix for the rattling in the dash, so if your car rattles there is a fix apparently..time will tell..
  4. Hi all thanks for the responses, with regard to the defogging (sorry not defrosting :)), when i press the defogging button ON the thing switch on and defog pretty quickly, when i want to turn it off i press the defogging button again, then it swicthes to "auto", bloody annoying, i have to press the "off" button to switch everything off. one more question, how do you transfer the phone book from the iphone to the car? i tried the transfer thing but nothing happens..
  5. hi guys, me again, can i please ask a couple of newbie questions, i recently bought an 09 IS250. here goes, 1)the front defrost is annoying. when i need the windscreen defrost i press the defrost button which is all good, but when i want it off by pressing the button again, it switches to air-con instead of off. is this the way it supposed to be? 2) does your warning message goes away? the one the pop up every time you start the engine? i have to press "I Agree" every time, annoying but i guess i can live with it 3)is your car noisy when moving? i find that the wind / road noise is a bit much for a Lexus. when my car is moving at about 50Kmh+, the wind noise is annoying, i expect it to be whisper quite, am i expecting too much here :) 4) apparently the moonroof clicking noise over rough road is a common problem, anyone found a permanent solution? i read that cleaning it and silicon spraying may help but a permanent solution would be great. again, unwanted noise from a car at this price range is not a good feeling :) thanks in advance..but i m sure i have more questions later :)
  6. thanks guys good to be part of the IS 250 crew.. love the car..only thing is, i should have bought the sport optioned on for an extra few Ks. dammm i love the smooth ride, for u guys with lower springs, does it alter your ride much? after reading through the forum, looks like if i want some aftermarket parts for the IS, i'll have to get them from the US. anyone managed to get parts locally at a reasonable price? i ask my local lexus dealer for the rear spoiler, it's $1K fitted.. ouch...
  7. hi guys, i am an IS250 virgin. just picked up mine yesterday. it's an 09 prestige with sat nav package. i am thinking of doing the following mods. - new air filter + intake - lower springs - exhaust can you guys recommend brands that i should be looking at? and is it going to void the warranty? ohh btw, does the IS250 automatically lock and arm the alarm after you leave the car? with mine, i have to arm it manually, but i was under the impression that it's automatic.
  8. hi all, is this still on? picking up my 09 is250 tomorrow, would love to lower it.
