  1. I have an 07 lexus IS350 and jst purchased new winter tires on the original 18' rims, stock tire sizes are 225/40 18 and 255/40 18. My question is I can still stick with the original TPMS right since im using original wheels? No need to replace or reprogram? Another thing, any suggestion on how much it would cost to mount and balance when my my tires come in and suggestion of any good place like pep boys, bc tires, goodyear, etc. Thanks for the help in advance.
  2. Hello all, My 2007 IS350 got hit in the right side and I just got my car today after being painted and repaired. The only thing that I have a problem is that my right front parking sensor keeps going off. The autobody told me that Lexus has to reset the computers or sensors. Is this true? If it is, is there anyway I can do it myself? Allan
  3. I have a black lexus is350 and just had the 3m clear bra installed today by a contracter listed in the 3m site. I had the whole front bumper, 10inches off the hood, fenders, and the side mirrors done. Long story short --------> IT LOOKS REALLY BAD. The cut outs for the headlight washers are not even aligned right, the cut line of the hood is not straight, and there are ripples every corner. The installer said it will have to dry and then it will blend in. He also did the door handles, but forget to do 1 of the handles. Is there a refund policy for 3m? I know I should contact him, but i'm afraid he may say no refunds or refuse to fix it, or refuse to replace it as the 3m warranty states on the website. WHAT SHOULD I DO? PLEASE HELP ALL...
  4. OK, heres the story, girlfriend left window of drivers side open and it rained throughout the night. The next morning the car stood in the sun and dried but the leather really looks bad. It's really wrinkled resembling a piece of paper crumpled up and then opened again. I let it sit the whole day to make sure it was dry and then I tried conditioning it with armorall. The leather looks a bit better, but it doesn't look as smooth. What can I do? Can a professiona detailer fix this. Is there any sort of iron for leather to smooth it out? Next question, is turtle wax ICE clay liquid good for removing baked in stains that bugs leave? Or should i get a rubbing compound or regular clay bar?
  5. When I was car washing, I noticed that some of the bug and sap stains left some residue which I think baked in due to the heat. Is there a way to remove these bug residue? I've read that the turtle wax rubbing compound then waxing it would remove such residue and minor scratches, is this true? Please feel free to share your thoughts on the best wax and washing products used, but do offer me suggestions on how to take these residues out. I tried washing and rubbing and washing, but the residue is still there. Another thing, can someone please post a pic of their IS350 or IS250 with a close up on the clear bra. I am looking where to get it, but I just want to see how it looks on a car. I saw a car with it, looks ugly as hell, looks like someone just glued plastic on the car. I want to do it from a different company instead of lexus themselves. Please let me know...can pics PLEASE>>
  6. I still can't seem to get the caller ID working, it still states "not supported" when someone calls. I have all my phonebook number in the car with 1+ the area code and the number...still no luck. Anyone can help...thanks.
  7. I just found out about something else with the whole bluetooth phone...in the speed dial I have 1 entry on slot #6, though I cannot delete it. When entering the speed dial option, it states 17/17 are free, though 1 entry is already entered and I cannot delete it somehow...any thoughts on how to just hard reset the whole phonebook and speed dial thing?
  8. Just got my black on black IS350 3 weeks ago and I had some questions regarding the keyless key and other things about the car: 1. If the car is started and the key is in your pocket and you leave the car to go upstairs to your house, will the car automatically stop running after several minutes, or can someone still drive off with the car since the car is started? 2. Is there a way to program the car to lock automatically after several minutes if you forget to lock the car by the alarm or the door handle button? 3. What is the best intake and exhaust combo to give greatest additional horsepower? I was thinking of getting K&N short intake combined with HKS exhaust...suggestions? 4. With the bluetooth phone, is there a way to get caller id displayed on the screen when a person calls? All that is displayed is "not supported" when a person calls...
