In my experience with these controllers and the power switch in my IS350... NO

Try Danny on this forum (Mod) He has lots of IS model parts.

Have you tried opening and cleaning up the mechanism?

Zero issues. Its all relative.

Normal tyres can be up to 5% difference.

Looks similar to mine minus the Luxury bit 🙂

Mr too 😉

Had quite a few sporty cars in the past. This one seems to cover all bases 😉

No real difference to steering other than maybe little bit less understeer when pushed.  Rear traction has certainly improved.

Cost at the time was about $1350 but shopping around can be worthwhile. I did a deal with Bob Jane at the time. F&B.

Depends on availability of AU stock etc.

I went up one size to 235/40/18 fronts and 265/40/18 rears on standard F Sport rims.  Speedo still reads a few k's under so no tickets here.

Car looks better as well like it should of come from factory for an F Sport ......

The extra 10mm made more of a difference than I thought it would in a positive way. No rubbing either.

Also rims now' just'  protected on front and more so on rear .

Michelin Pilot Sport 4 front and Pilot Sport 4S rear..🙂

All the bearing bolts you do up real tight. All the others tight, sway bar bushes not as tight 🙂

I think this is what you need . Baz

On my 2012 IS350 F Sport I've put 235/40/18 front and 265/40/18 on the F Sport rims.

These fit with no issues. (Michelin PS4 and PS4 sport)

OEM rims are 8Jx18 ET45 front and 8.5Jx18 ET50 rear.

OEM tyres are 225/40ZR18 front and 255/40ZR18 rear.

I tried with some odd struts I had lying around, length was a bit shorter but still fitted for the trial. The ball ends dont fit properly on the inner pin no matter what all the youtube vids say.

Had some with I think about 300N of force. The boot certainly opened nicely but when shut the force lifted the rear corners of the boot lid 😞

It was also reasonably hard to shut to get it over centre.

Got a set of Lexus struts and had a refill chap try them at about 20% over oem. This seems to be not too bad. Boot lid does not swing open but it does lift about 70-100mm when you pop the switch instead of sitting just open. 

FSport lid is also a bit heavier than standard ones.

At least I had a go. Cost $60 for the refill. Would they work better with a bit more force???......... Got another $60?... 🙂

Doesn't add anything.

Just changes the throttle curve from pedal.

Put car in Power mode with Lexus switch 🙂

Well done. Must get some false teeth 😁

Sadly I doubt you can realise much more on the 2.5 naturally inducted so finding someone to play with it would be rare.

Paste your code up.. First letter on trans code is the one you want.

A is Non-lsd. B & C should be lsd.

Edited 🙂

Make car safe.!!!!

Jack up both back wheels just off ground.

Car in neutral, handbrake off. 

Turn one wheel by hand. Both wheels should turn same direction. LSD.

Put in park or if manual 1st.  Should feel resistance when turning one wheel. If easy and one wheel turns the opp direction, no lsd.

Don't put baking soda in unless you can flush it out. Residue may block jets etc.

You will always smell washer fluid but when it goes offf.... yuk.

You could try a good dose of disinfectant, chlorine based maybe??

Put a towel over jets when flushing thru.

If it worked for a while I doubt the circuit is multiplexed. 

Can you remove the voltage adapter and and check it out with camera att on a known 12v supply, ie battery or cig liter.

I have same in both our cars. I put the voltage adapter under the dash with 12v feed from one of acc fuses under dash.

@Joetownpa  see Neurus 1st post 7 posts up the previous page.

Worst case may need to remove bottle and give it a very good clean. It may have a build up of hard water residue and grime coating the plastic. This will aid bacteria growth.

You could try 1/2 filling with vinegar followed by a cup-full of baking soda. Then after it has reacted try to wash it out fully.

Stubborn surface grime may be able to be cleaned off with a cup-full of nuts, bearings etc and sloshing it around to dislodge the grime. Remove pump 1st.

Followed by a good wash out.

Note: I have never removed a washer bottle from a Lexus IS yet but the time will come.
