Hi again

I still wait for my 400h 2007 from US to Sweden and I shall first try to solve the NAV the software way. The plan B is to buy a EU DVD READER (Lexus part nr: 86841-48060). This reader is much cheaper to buy in the US (they say). The US READER for this car has the part nr: 86841-48030. Can anybody confirm this information (is it the same conectors??)

Best regards Nils

I'm also planning on bringing my 400h to Poland within a few months and have also looked into this issue as well. It turns out that the warranty is definitely not honored in Europe. Unfortunately, the bad news continues since the Nav system will not work either. As it turns out the European model uses a different reader/computer which is even made by a different company, so simply switching the DVD will not suffice. Btw. there also is no way to switch the display from miles to kilometers and the climate control from Fahrenheit to Celsius.

Something I haven't been able to find out is whether the auto turning HID lights need to bee replaced to meet the asymmetrical European standards. If someone has gone through some of these issues please respond.

Hello everyone,

I am planning to import a lexus 400h to Sweden from the US and the only major concern is of course the navigation system. I called a lexus dealer in Stockholm who told me that he had a client who had bought the hardware that had to be replaced (which as I understand is situated somewhere in the trunk area) in the US for a much better price than he would have paid in Sweden. Does anyone know where you can purhcase a European reader/computer in the US or have any further info in relation to this?

Hello

I have just bought a 400h (2007) in US and it ships now to Sweden. I have also heard that you must change the hardware to a EU and that you can buy the EU-unit cheaper in US. I will try to get the partnumber from my Lexus workshop i Stockholm.
