This probably sounds really stupid but I will very enthusiastically wave at other Lexus drivers.

Im a young woman and I am neurodivergent who one day saw what i thought was a spaceship on the road (LC500) and ... now today i own an rc350f and ls460... I absolutely love Lexus and will never go to any other brand again. I love to drive my rc just for an excuse to drive it bc i love it so much. and Any time i see an LC500 it makes me so so so happy and i wave very happily at them and i love seeing other Lexus on the road too i always point them out happily. kinda like when people go crazy for a miata (love those cars too). And I never ever had any interest in cars or car culture before this, im like really obsessed.

If you got waved at in your lexus from a lexus, would you think its weird??? should i stop?? I dont want to make people uncomfortable because the one lc500 i wave at , ive probably waved at them 3 times now. Lmk what you guys think please 🥺

edit: from what ive gathered some people arent friendly and into car culture and thats ok! I think ill do it regardless and those that get bitter about it can probably be greatful that its the worst thing that could happen to them that day. 🤔

Love it. Very crisp and nice. Not a promotion or anything. Probably best $25 bucks I spent. Plug and play.

TL;DR: The design patent was initially applied under the name Lexus LFR before development moved into Gazoo Racing. Some design elements were also changed after it became GR GT

Any takers? I’d just like to know which of you people who own a lovely Lexus is equipped with this beautiful package of clothing and accessories to make your Lexus life more luxurious. Thank you for your answers!

My Lexus hybrid battery is starting to die (a little bit after the 11 years mark...)...
I got the first code (P0A80) a few months ago, my dealer told me that I will probably need to replace it soon, but as it was the first time they just cleared it.

It came back a couple months later, this time I cleared it using an OBD2 scanner.

Finally it comes back every couple days, so I decided to go with a replacement : thing is my appointment is in a little bit more than 2 weeks, because they just ordered the battery...

Am I still able to drive the car until then (only low distances obviously), as I need it for work ?

The car still drives fine with no issues, except it's relying solely on the engine and don't use any hybrid assistance or electric driving.

I am thinking about either continue clearing the codes, but I'm not sure it's a good idea.
Otherwise I could just drive it with the codes on, relying only on the engine in the meantime.

Do you think any of those ideas could cause further issues (except the horrible MPG) ?

Would you have any recommendations ?

Thanks a lot!

I have a 2013 es300h with 185k on the clock. I got the car with 50k miles in 2019 and besides oil changes, a battery, tires, and some filters I've practically had to do no maintenance to the car. It runs like a top and considering what I'd get resell for the car, it'd be more valuable to me to drive it till the wheels fall off. Still getting 35MPG

Approaching 200k I'm wondering what maintenance I should do. Ive heard mixed reviews about a trans flush on Toyotas. Any advice would be appreciated! at this point I want to put as many miles on this car as possible!

Ok, who did this parking job? Via r/mildlyinteresting 😆

Have been struggling for over an hour. Loosened the nut, can twist back and forth, but it will not lift up at all.

I have a Lexus too, and I really enjoy driving it. It's comfortable, smooth, and just a nice car overall.

But there's always something that could be better, haha.

For those of you who own one, what's your favorite thing about it? And what's something that gets on your nerves?

Also curious how everyone's Lexus has held up over the years. Any unexpected problems or has it been pretty reliable?

New RZ 350 2026 premium.

Has this happened to anyone?

I bought my Lexus TX500h last November, so it’s less than a year old.

Last week a 10yo neighbor popped a squishy while riding in the middle row captains chair and it got onto the seat and into the ventilation holes.

I tried to clean it up while it was wet, then I waited til it was dry. I’ve tried toothpicks, I’ve tried suction….am I just cooked? Is this fixable or do I need to buy a whole new seat?

Hey all,

Lexus ux250h 2019 150k km - The problem is: when I start car and turn on radio, audio works. However, when I connect my phone via bluetooth and turn on music - after 20 mins I hear loud beep from speakers and all audio dies (radio, bluetooth, carplay audio). Then when I leave car for 30 mins and try to connect again - it works a short period of time and issue happens again.

One observations: it looks like radio does not produce the issue. It’s reproducible only when connecting phone to audio system.

Has anyone had this problem? How did u resolve it?

So here in California, looks like Lexus is add a rebate to keep some of the EV cars under $50k (before tax and registration) so that that it qualifies for the CA $3500 rebate for first time EV buyer ($2500 if you don't qualify or for cars over $50k).

So $2486 discount + $3500 CA rebate for me, plus since I bought a car for my GF in October and still on the title + $1500 loyalty rebate + $1000 if I finance and pay it off early, and I think there's also a $1500 SDGE credit here in San Diego (it might have expired).

So for the ESe 350 Preminum, it's about $8500 off MSRP for an ESe premium, roughly $44k before tax and license.

For the RZ, there's $2486 discount + $4000 lexus cash +$3500 from the state $1500 loyalty and $1000 for financing, or $12,500 discount from MSRP.

So for the RZ, that brings the price down to $36.5k before tax and license...

That's very interesting $36k or $40ish for a commute car isn't bad. That's cheaper than a 2026 mazda miata, lol.

I hope things continue to not sell well so prices go lower further.

People who have ESe and RZ, how has the reliability and range been for you so far?

Does anyone have any advice on how to clean this off my car, I've had it washed about three times, once at the best car wash. Is this a detailing thing or is my paint ruined. It's been on there, if I am honest, for a month, because every time I wash it it doesn't come off and I have had no time in my schedule to figure out where to take it since. It's a 2019 Lexus UX 200 in gray

Hey TX-350 owners, has anyone had the rear LEXUS logo fall off or go missing? Is it normal for the logo to fall off on its own due to weak adhesive?

Alternator failed on my 2010 RX 350 at 170k miles (it's a 2GRFE). Have a home garage to do that work in.

Is there any other preventative maintenance I should do while I'm in there? Thinking belt replacement at the least? A lot has to come off so would rather just get things done while I'm in there. Trying to get this thing to 200k.

Thanks!

Stupid question but is this a power steering reservoir or brake reservoir?

I thought it was steering and looked up what I need and lexus takes some special transmission fluid instead of steering fluid so I went and bought that.

Before filling it up I wanted to double check and I see “use DOT3 fluid only” which is not what I was seeing in my searches. DOT3 is brake fluid. So is that what the car is actually low on?

Maybe not the most convenient placement, but damn it felt cool to use.

Edit: im NOT talking about the trackpad- that thing sucks to use.
