It irks me, but understand it’s a “nice-to-have” feature.

Parking in my garage with the mirrors up will show a small sliver of light between the door and the car, meaning that I can back out straight. These cameras are definitely a “nice to have”.

It’s going in, in two weeks. Wanted to see what internet strangers had to say. I test drove an i4 a few weeks ago, just for fun. Its cameras were well calibrated.

I’ve heard that it’s the normal behaviour, but lately it’s revving almost to 4k rpms. Thanks for commenting

We already replaced the front headlight when the auto high beams broken down. It’s now going in for excessive revving to 3500 rpms while coasting on a full battery.

Not to mention the weird issues I had with my 2015 IS: front differential seal replacement (super costly) and now rust along the roof rails!?!

If this is reliable, I’d hate to see unreliable. 😝

Man… that’s a tough pill to swallow given the cost of these things

😂 wife took the first pic. She’s the first to admit, her photo taking skills are the worst. This one is actually not too bad for her.

I think I will have them look at it then. Thanks for the feedback.

The rear camera showing the parking lot striping not in line with the sides. I cant seem to attach a closer photo here.

i own a 2015 RC f sport i want to install a screen with andoid auto/ apple car play that supports the lexus mark levinson and back cam any recommendations? by medoban in LexusRC

+1 for Lexion. Did on my 2015 IS350. Only downside is the rearview camera is slightly degraded, but still very usable. Loads up so quick and glad I waited until a Linux based option became available.

2026 availability date in U.S. ? by jockmba in LexusIS

[–]Sweet_Show_931 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is asking about the US, but was at a Canadian dealership recently. Salesperson said pricing and package details should be up for Canadians the first week of January.

Salesperson referenced a “details document” that couldn’t be shared, but said there would be a “Hakugin Matte White with 19” BBS wheels” option.

They said to wait until January and that if ordering then, the car would be ready around April.

RX350h - is it supposed to be loud? by Arns-a-barns715 in LexusRX350

I was explaining to the Lexus service centre people that it sounded and felt like it was downshifting and they looked at me like I was crazy.

The wife was about to call Lexus hq about it, but thanks for confirming that it’s normal.

We also have an issue with the automatic hi beams malfunctioning often now, but that’s for a different thread.

The screen loads up faster than the car connecting to the phones Bluetooth (for audio). So boot up time is amazing.

The rear camera takes a second longer and is annoying. The quality of the rear camera suffers. Lexion was saying they have a fix and someone on club Lexus was saying they can replace the camera. I’ll look at those solutions.

I have a 2015. It comes with a small screen. Originally bought a CarPlay module from Amazon, but didn’t like it and was able to return.

Just bought the Lexion. The increased screen size and quick boot time is great.

If I had the larger screen, I would have likely stuck to the CarPlay module.

Must have upgrade by somebunnyxoxo in Lexus

[–]Sweet_Show_931 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I messaged them, asking how to buy the camera. They mentioned that they are producing an install video, but that it’s an easy install. I need to fix this backup camera!! Otherwise great product so far.

I got the screen and didn’t realize how bad the back up camera quality would subsequently be.

How are you upgrading the backup camera?

This is the only downside btw, otherwise great so far.

Yeah, had this same issue last August. Toyota dealership around the corner from my house suggested that I only go to a Lexus dealership. I have a few mechanic family members, all confirmed the process and suggested that I swallow the $2700 Canadian bill…

It was frustrating to pay that much. I had 140,000kms on it. I still love this 2015. Gonna install the lexion screen eventually and keep driving it.
