Just had my 10,000 mile service on my 400h, and it had begun having the same driver's side A/C blowing warm air problem described above. My car also was diagnosed with the cracked A/C condenser, and had the repair described above under warranty. Interestingly, my service advisor told me there was a second 400h brought into the shop on her team TODAY with the same problem. Clearly an A/C supplier problem for Lexus. The service was great, and I was given a Lexus ES330 loaner for the day. I'm happy.

I find that VERY hard to believe. You sure you're not reporting Kilometers per Gallon ;<). Also, while it is possible that for a period of time at high speed, going downhill for example, that the car will run on batteries even at high speed (I've seen this at speeds over 70 MPH), and that this will generate PEAK gas mileage figures that are very high, the average of a full driving cycle is what we're interested in here. Real world, day to day stuff. Thanks, Neuromancer

Please enter your gas mileage on the most recent tank of gas. You should reset your mileage on the Consumption screen when you fill up to get this data. This poll will generate a composite of many different driving styles, degrees of Hybrid system breakin, etc, but still will be interesting. Later we can do this again for drivers with more than 2000 miles on the car, etc. to get more nearly optimal numbers.

Thanks for the prompt response.

Hi, I have a deposit in on a 400h with Mark Levinson, looking forward to it. I noticed that the RX330 is listed with the Laser Cruise Control, but it is not mentioned in the Web site specifications for the 400h. Is that correct? Is there some problem using the laser cruise control on the hybrid powertrain? Thanks
