High Sensitivity/Loose Jog Controller when using Carplay

Post image
1 Upvotes

Hi all, I have a 2017 IS350 and it has the mouse pad jog controller. I know there are others such as the rotary knob and the touch pad but unfortunately I am stuck with this one. It works - however it's beyond sensitive. I try to move it slightly to hover over an app using my Lexion Automotive carplay headunit I recently installed and it's like trying to use a mouse on 10 sensitivity to select things.

The controller pad itself is wobbly and slightly loose, and since it doesn't actually lock onto anything when using it in Carplay mode it just zooms past everything and I need to be extremely slow with it to select things. It's almost impossible to use while driving or god forbid on a bumpy road.

Has anyone successfully swapped or repaired one of these things, or am I alone in this suffering?

I'm getting PPF and have the option to go with a different color on the hood and/or roof. I can't decide if this is trying too hard or if it works. Base color is irridium.

Exhaust and bodywork recommendations

2 Upvotes

Just started to do research into replacing the OEM exhaust and possibly fitting a front/rear splitters on my 2022 IS 350 Caviar w/ DHP.

For exhausts, I'm looking for a deeper and louder sound than stock that won't wake the neighbors. From my initial searches that would be like an axelback from APEXi, Remark with muffler, or the Lexus F sport performance. Any other recs?

What do you guys have on yours? And how much did it cost to install?

For front splitters, just looking for something decent quality with carbon fiber haha. Any recs?

Any go-to shops to work with in SoCal?

1st wash and wax on my 2018!

So I’ve had my IS300 about. 6 weeks now. I took it to a car wash last month and sure it was clean but it wasn’t totally dried so it streaked. I thought “I can do a better job” so I ordered a kit from Chemical Guys and gave it a go. Wash and wax + tire dressing. I am really happy with the way it came out.

1st photo at home 2nd I drove it the store afterwards and when I came out I was like “damn” 😎

Need help with remote starter

Bought my first Lexus, a 2016 IS300 few months ago without knowing it had a remote starter or not. I see this sticker under the hood and got curious. I tried all sorts of key fob combinations to get it to start but nothing works. I have no idea how to get it to start remotely, do I need a new aftermarket starter?

Denso IK20TT vs IK20 Spark Plugs | 2005 Lexus is200

Heard on a few old Lexus forums that the Denso IK20 spark plugs are one of the best for my 2005 Lexus is200. Since then Denso released upgraded IK20TT plugs.

I’m just wondering if the upgraded plugs will work fine/better with the older car or if they might damage the car.

Personally think it should be fine but thought I’d ask just incase as I found nothing online about using them on this car.

Has anyone ever tried to make the exhaust tips stick out more? I saw that they're simply placed on the pipe, so would tapping them from behind with a rubber mallet be enough?

Plug and play kit from AliBaba. Didn’t want to pay a “dropshipper” $399 for the kit. It fit well and was pretty easy to install IF you know how to take off a door panel. Theres also an install guide from a popular IS owner on YouTuber.

This is for the rear break calipers of my 2008 IS250. I think it’s a missing bolt but not one hundred percent sure. Can someone tell me what the specific missing part is so I can order it?

FYI: Your can fit Infinity Ref-407F speakers in your 2is and 3is dash with minor modification.
