They said they had to disconnect the battery for about 10 minutes and then some stuff through OBD.

Today Melb City did a full reset on the electronics, including resetting the gearbox into learning mode (like driving it out for the first time). The drive back home, I got 10.1L/100. First time ever saw this go under 13 haha. So Im guessing it needed a reset. Will monitor over the next few days but this looks promising.

Pm'ed

Service lad try telling me its normal again and that it takes a few months for the consumption to reset... took me for a fool here, I've been testing by resetting it. Anyway I'm going past to get it plugged in for a diagnostic tomorrow, this will only show if there's any electrical issues though.

Ok thanks....I'm definitely taking it up with them tomorrow. Its Melb city Lexus, they've held a good rep from what I can tell so far, lets see what they say/do about it. I've had a few performance cars too and none have consumed this much. Even when I had one tuned on 107 octane ethanol only, it didn't daily this high. They better fix this now.

When it got serviced in June, Lexus said that it was normal for a 350 F to consume around that figure.... its a 2011 model and doesnt have the stop/start fuel saver thing. Anyone else with a 2010-2012 model who can confirm the consumption? I haven't taken it back to them yet, first waiting on some answers here to know if its unusual. EDIT: Reading some articles on the net it should be around 10L/100...I'm calling them on Monday, definitely not right.

I decided to do some more testing...I reset it a few times on a few trips....best I got was 13.4, and that's being extremely light on the pedal, as in slower than a pensioner.

Used the old sp sport tyres....was great, but can't get those anymore. Used new sport maxx RT tyres...rubbish, sidewalls are made of marshmallows 2 cents dropped

Ok thats definitely not normal then...I'm going to get them to go over this

Does 16-18 L/100 sound about right for the trip avg displayed on the dash when daily driving around the inner suburbs/city? ...no sport mode, just normal get from A to B. I know the 350 F is meant to consume fuel but that seems a bit high :-/ Just wondering if there's anything that could be causing the high consumption... I can get the dealer to check now while its under stat warranty. Car has 57k on the clock.

Can't comment about anything Lexus specific as I'm still new to the brand...but 30000 on rotors does sound a bit low

Did you just buy the car or you've been driving it from new?

Do you guys run the different tyre pressures front and rear? Or just even all over...wondering what worked best 20 kpa variation according to the door sticker

Shoes fitted....AD08R semi slick goodness. Immediately changed the handling/feel of the car with ridiculous amounts of grip and response, these are by far the best performance tyres money can buy imo. :)

Pm'd :)
