  1. No but I did see a post on this forum (USA area) where someone used CF wrap and it looked OK
  2. Also ISF section in this site https://au.lexusownersclub.com/forums/forum/37-lexus-is-f-club/
  3. Would'nt you need to run it for a week or so for computer to properly adjust to get max advantage. Toyota engines are know to take up to a months driving to get full benefits from changes (workshop chatter from my customers)
  4. @18ADF Please Hi. Please educate us more on your findings.
  5. Ive never changed a crush washer on about 20 vehicles. Doesn't mean you shouldn't but they are not normally a problem. Never had a leak or nor do I over tighten. Years ago when they were copper we used to hit them with a flame to re anneal.
  6. Ive been running on 98 for the last year or so. Car goes well and returns average commuting inc freeway, of 10.5 l/100ks Been trying E10 for the last 5 tanks. (min 95) 23c a litre cheaper, $10 a fill approx less. Still runs the same, actually feels to have more mid range torque. Economy of 12 l/100ks same commuting. Injector rattle under low speed accel is also a bit quieter. Savings of about $7 a fill for same /same 🚗
  7. Info only http://lexus-europe.epc-data.com/is_f/use20l/2913/body/8202/82817C/
  8. re cabin filter IMPORTANT: Please ensure that the vehicle is in recirculate mode. If not, you will force open the computer controlled damper and damage the HVAC system.
  9. Its up to you BUT ensure you follow the correc procedure to change the cabin filter or you will stuff up the recirc switch.
  10. Was a spare F Sport wheel I had in good condition. I just did it as a trial. Took about 2 hours with wheel stripped back. Not a perfect job from my end but would turn out better next time or if I re did it. One of those things where you learn a lot 1st time making it easier 2nd time .
  11. Just fitted one of these to try it out on my IS. Came out pretty good, similar to pic in add. I asked for grey thread. https://www.ebay.com/itm/DIY-Hand-stitched-Black-Leather-Steering-Wheel-Cover-for-Lexus-IS250-IS300-IS350/122368545860?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2648
  12. I have found if I close and reopen door it stops. Allows some peace when working with door open.
  13. As I said. Take your own oil. Get it at a Repco sale. Dealer wont care if you supply oil as long as it meets spec. Cost me $726 (90k service) Only parts I paid for were filter(s), brake fluid and key battery.
  14. Good idea to add your location ;)
  15. Now if only there was mirroring or similar for an 2011 with factory gps..........................
  16. Ive had my 75k at Melbourne Lexus. Offered me a car but I went for a tour of the City instead. Team was courteous. Nothing more to say really. Supplied my own oil so saved about $100 :)
  17. In my opinion I cant see the need to replace the rest, its just adds cost unless you have no option there. If so a member above on here is selling a complete system.. You wont get any power benefits just a different sound either way. Edit: go the rear muffler change.
  18. V22 link added.
