Replying to: la4mead (Apr 19, 2009 10:30 am) Probably not.... In modern day vehicles, at least for the last 5-8 years, spark knock is often NOT the problem, so retarding the ignition is rarely the solution. The engine/transaxle ECU is capable, using the crank position sensor, to tell if the detected knock/ping ocurring prior to ignition is due to low octane fuel. For low octane fuel the solution is slight enrichment of the mixture under knock/ping conditions, high throttle openings. For knock/ping due to engine lugging a simple downshift is used. If there is no downshift available then DBW will be used to dethrottle the engine and prevent damage.

| I don't notice much air flow when using the vented seats even in the highest setting # 3 any comments?? Thanks Mike | |
I am ready to purchase a 2010 RX with the Mark Levinson stereo system and Park Assist features. I am being told that they are not building them with these two options right now. Has anyone purchased/ordered a car with either of these features??

Replying to: rcf8000 (Apr 22, 2009 4:36 am) I would presume eventually you would get what you want but it might take a while. I had 2 dealers tell me Lexus tells them what they are shipping. I "ordered" the new hybrid and there are certain options I do not want (heads up, rear seat entertainment, park assist, accident avoidance) and certain I do, (sport package, levenson and the full lux and comfort pkg) We will see--but I have time other than just wanting the car. |

Replying to: hal56 (Apr 22, 2009 5:58 am) I have not found a dealer able to order me a hybrid yet. They are telling me I might not be able to order until July and may not receive the car until 2-3 months later. What were you told by your dealer?
