  1. I did not want to wait for the leak to get worse and cause any other issues Mind you i must have had it like that for a least a few months its all up to you if you drive your car hard or have plans to take on the track i would get it done My extended warranty covered the repair bill at first they said no its a leak and they don't cover gasket leaks but then hit up the under writer and they took care of it perhaps a good idea to take out extended warranty and then get it done a bit later if the funds are not available Company web site is here www.nwc.com.au hope this helps
  2. I had the same issue on my 2011 ISF had it fixed in 2016 at parramatta Lexus at a cost of $1500 aud there abouts and it never happened again.
  3. Hi All, Just a quick update regarding my previous post, I had lexus look into the issues and it seems the heat exchanger unit was the cause The car was off the road for two days and it now has been all resolved at a cost of $1170.00, They also managed to destroy the wiring loom and have arranged a replacement which will arrive from japan early Jan to be replaced. Just a heads up to anyone if you start to notice the coolant levels drop get it checked out right away as the collection point is below the inlet manifold and hard to get to. Have GREAT XMAS EVERYONE
  4. Yeah thanks for the heads up i have been reading the US feeds and just booking it now will provide an update once all is done cheers
  5. This is my first post and I am hoping you guys might be able to assist or guild me to the right direction, I have had my 2011 ISF for about 6 months its an amazing car and I enjoy it a lot It has 80,000 Click on the clock and runs really nice, I was replacing new Pad's a week and my mechanic noticed some dry coolant around the Gearbox outer shell and notified me so we decided to look into it further but unable to locate the leak, I have topped up the coolant a few times but nothing major and have not noticed any leak's where my car is parked every night. From doing some research online a few days ago it seems it might be caused by a leaking heat exchanger and fluid build up in the valley of the block finding it's way to the back of the engine and round the gearbox housing. Just wondering if anyone else has had the issue and how was it resolved, Also perhaps if it's a known issue how can we have Lexus look into the issue as my car is out of manufactures warranty but I do have third party extended warranty. Thanks John
