  1. YES another snake oil thing. I am a mechanic and i have NEVER seen a k frame moved that has been torqued to specs. If this was a problem don't you think Lexus would have picked it up ?????
  2. OK might be in the wrong section but does anyone know if i can buy a ISF HPS intake pipe in Australia, maybe the mods know
  3. Anyone replaced there windscreen in a ISF or are they the same as IS250-350 if so how much genuine or after market and the side moldings cheers.
  4. Ok rang Chatswood Lexus this morning and they said they use 10w-30 Castrol semi synthetic on my last service and all ISF oil changes,very interesting as the book says 5w30. Nothing wrong with Magnatec i have run it in my SS and Aurion ZR6 with no issues PS any one want to buy a SS cheap cheers.
  5. Thanks Peter i cant take it back bought it private but the bloke bought it from chatswood Lexus still got 2.5 year extended warranty i will ring them on Monday, and yes 40 years a mechanic i know a thing or to cheers.
  6. I was thinking Magnatec 5w-30 penrite 5w-30 or genuine Toyota 5w-30, at the moment the oil is half way between full and empty car was serviced 2000kms ago just want to top it up cheers.
  7. So it says 5w-30 in the book fully synthetic or semi?? surely some of you change your own oil maybe the moderators know????
  8. Does the interior light work,if it doesn't should be a fuse,check the instrument brightness dial for settings, when you find the problem let people know.
  9. What oil does lexus of chatswood or any lexus dealer use in the ISF, is it the same as toyota 5/30 fully synthetic ???
  10. This was $53500 and i just got back from Goulbourn via Clyde mountain to warm Moruya Goulbourn was freezing with a 100km wind, if any one of you have been down the Clyde you will understand what fun it is. so you could say i had a great drive home. Like i said earlier glad i went 2011 i know every bump on the Kings Highway and it was great thanks for SOME people for the help they gave me cheers people, now i have to name the beast any suggestions Bruce LEE Asian Mussels (BLAM) or Lex mussels ok i give up.
  11. Cheers Vaku can't get the grin of my face,so glad i went the 2011 model. Already thinking JOE Z exhaust anyone know the price just supplied off hand and were to get one ???
  12. finally bought a 2011 ISF Graphite in color 70000km's all i can say is what a weapon yep it will get some mods soon....ex Lexus chatswood car off a private person with 2.5 year extended warranty, hope i don't have any problems, i am a mechanic so and i checked it out just serviced with no issues all comments welcome.
  13. Thanks Barry for your reply, i hope to be buying one tomorrow if it up to my standard cheers.
  14. Did the 2010 my11 ISF come out with the suspension changes, if it has DLR and the single tacho and sports button on the steering wheel cheers.
  15. Which dealer is this it sounds like a money grab, do the brakes shudder measure the thickness of the disc's just put new pads in IS 350 rotors should last for a lot longer than 30000km's
  16. Good luck with your car not many performance mods you can do, and this site is good but very slow even the Moderators???? but you may get some help cheers Neill.
  17. Have you tried Autosol metal polish (Repco) it works a treat don't go and buy any kit as they are all just abrasive polishes and a rip off, work the autosol a few times by hand you have nothing to lose, let us know how you go. If they are to gone check YouTube with fine wet and dry and then polish then wax sealant.
  18. With the 2013 isf there is a little pygmy that jumps out of the boot when reversing and has a look around for you and them jump back in, what will Lexus think of next.
  19. What model?? check the charge rate yourself with a volt meter at the battery 13.8-14.2 give it a rev, it maybe a computer issue let us know how you go.
  20. Check Ebay for rotor and pad price there is nothing special about the brakes (not like a ISF) any mechanic can do them 1to2 hours max $950 is a rip off. Ps I am a mechanic.
  21. did you get a diff there is a ISF wrecking on ebay cheers.
  22. Are the front seats in a ISF the same as IS350F or are they more bolstered ??
  23. Motor like a swiss watch , gearbox smooth gokart handling could do with more power front interior a bit small 2008 model and the ride was firm but nice the ss is a lot firmer, would love to read some feedback cheer Neill.
