I just bought a one owner 2005, 53,000 original miles, she’s mint! I enjoy all of these hidden features, I didn’t know it had all of them. Most comfortable car I’ve ever owned. Enjoying it for years to come. -Stephen, Ohio 🇺🇸
Hey man, idk if you'll see this comment but if you do what part of Ohio are you in? Do you still have your Lexus? I bought mine about 2-3 months ago from a guy in Holland Ohio right outside of Toledo. 👍
The blue in the emlem is for the hybrids. My 06' rx400h has the blue and its JDM. Also my passenger seat is 10 way adjustable as well. Also the US keys work the windows the same way.
Really good video. After watching this video and driving my brother rx400h I want to buy this car even more. And your English is fine ✌🏻😆 keep up good work show us more hidden secrets about the cars
Shift into electric break mode (B) and drive around untill the battery is fully charged. It will display the battery charged green 🔋. Then the truck takes off fast AF! Blows the doors off a lot of cars lolol even the new range rovers 2020. Lol I just raced the new 2020 dodge truck (6mpg v8) and my rx400 was just as fast with the battery charged full. And I'm still getting 23 mpg driving like an asshole if I want. Amazing truck for real, one of the best Lexus has ever made. Gratz on your purchase
@@osasjohn3547 I just seen one go for 10k clean...black on black it looked nice....it's rare to see them for sale...it was gone the next day b4 I could go look at it lol
Perfect English, friend! I just bought another 2009 RX 350 in the color that I originally wanted (Brandywine Mica) and with 40K fewer miles on it. Hardly a rock ding anywhere on it. I did try to insert a DVD and it came back with "Error" so assuming mine won't play DVD's. I also tested the DVD on my Bamboo Pearl RX and again, error. I love the quality of this model and ONLY changed because I really can't stand the Bamboo Pearl colors (it turns six different colors according to the sun/shade). Brandywine rides stiffer (so far) than Bamboo. 2009 is the last model with the 5-speed overdrive and the open space between the console and the dash, which is another reason I won't buy beyond the 2009 model. LOVE the "secret features" and did not know about them. Great video.
Your English is good and an excellent video thank you from an Englishman. I had a 2007 RX450h for a few years, loved it so I changed it for a GX450h which is a great car but I am going to go back to the RX soon as I miss the height. Thanks again.
Mine just hit 200k driving on Michigan roads! I'm sure I'll get half a million miles on it at least with good oil and maintenance, some seafoam b4 oil changes, and premium synthetic oil with a bit of additive. I got this SUV to drive my bulldogs around...I instantly fell in love with the truck and started to drive it daily. Now when my muscle car is in the garage...I'm rolling in the Lexus 😂
@@AbcAbc-sp1od No but I did have to put in a brake actuator a couple of years ago....cost about $3500! I had to replace the hybrid battery in my Prius when it was at 150K, but the Lexus battery is still strong at 277K now!
Excellent! Thank you for your very good English. I did not know these features. I have a 2007 RX400h. I bought it last year (2019). For such a luxury car, it has only used up half of its life. I have had no problems until now, but a silly little problem has occurred. I had my tyre pump plugged into the cargo bay power socket. The pump faulted and blew the fuse, but I wasn't sure, so I tried it in the driver's power outlet (not the cig lighter). The pump functioned for a second, and the fuse blew (there is no power. I tested with a meter). But, the Power Outlet No. 1 fuse under the glove box seems OK. I can not find the fuse for the Cargo bay power outlet. Mystery, and no help on line, or in the manual!
The only one I would truly consider 'secret' is the last, and the only useful option I found would be the second. But, I can tell you really tried here and I can appreciate that.
The blue lexus emblem I believe is only on the 2008 model of the RX400H. I have a 2006 and while my lexus emblem is just silver, my RX400H badge is blue. Great tips and tricks!
@@upalanko thank you man... are you going to make some full test of your car in the future? I would really appreciate it... honestly I am thinking about rx400h 2008 or x450h 2009+
siema, kupiłem nie dawno indetycznego tylko bordowego w Niemczech. mógłbyś mi coś wiecej napisać jak sie sprawuje oraz czy masz problem z fotelami tylnymi ktore wydaja delikatne dzwięki? oraz jak spalanie?
The blue around the emblem and lettering is to indicate that your vehicle is a hybrid model. The regular model does not have the blue accent. Toyota does this with all of their hybrid models.
@@upalanko if it's a hybrid... the best way to tell the difference between '08/'09 and older models is that the '08-'09 have chrome plated exterior door handles, '07 and older have body colored handles...that's the case for the US models, not sure about the European models..
@@GarretRowden yes, the blue coloured emblem is the post lifting feature, my 400h from 2005 has a standard silver Lexus emblem and no 'Hybrid' printed on the rear passenger doors on both sides, which is the case for all the post lifting models. Also the infotainment screen has older graphics than the 2008 one.
I have a lexus rx330 2005 same color but I've had a problem put key in no sound nothing headlights working and dashlights working going to garage tomorrow it has 185thousand miles but I only paid 6300.I had timing belt waterpump coil and sparkplugs replaced costs 1298.80
I had no idea I could play a video on that car and I've had it for 14 years. Jeesh! I didn't know about the extended seat either. All those times I wanted to nap on a long trip. Who knew? By the way, I LOVE my Lexus and will never get rid of it. I won't even get a new one - prefer the feel of the old one better - a real cream puff.
Hey mate! Do you think it's easy and possible to have the side marker lights enabled in the EU model? I can see the US model has a orange part and includes a side marker below the blinker light. I can see mine has a cristal kind of reflector instead the orange one but it looks like it has the space for the bulb. Much appreciated
Ten niebieski znaczek nie oznacza 2008+. Taki był i teraz jest jedynie na hybrydach. Masz 400h hybrydę - i dlatego masz niebieski znak. Ja mam 350 (bez hybrydy) i mam "stary" znak :D P.S. Ficzer z odtwarzaniem wideo - bomba, dzięki :D
Owszem oznacza hybryde, ale w hybrydach przed 08 rokiem nie znajdziesz takiego znaczka tylko zwykły srebrny, z niebieską obwódką jest tylko w hybrydach poliftach od 08roku wzwyż, o to chodzi ;-)
Didn’t know about watching a movie, making a bed out of the seats and the windows, thanks! You really speak english good man!!!!👍🏽
I remember in 2010 it was my girlfriend's father's car, when she went out with this, we made the bedroom inside, very comfortable car

Correct, 2007, 2008 have blue emblems. 2006 400h has standard silver emblems.
Those are really nice rims and tires.
All the way from America, thanks for rubbing in your europian passenger seat model lmao

Yes you have those features also the back seat you can recliner to the front or back also .
I disabled the panic button. I hate that I cannot close the windows remotely!
Great video, I have the RX 300 and love it
Very nice video man. Those red bulbs in the taillights are original or you switched them yourself? it looks good...

What is the purpose of the rare electric motor and how many miles per/gallon can you get
it helps with fuel economy and also is designed to work as a reverse gear, mpg is like 10l/100km, in europe we have got different measurments sorry
Dont forget its possible to slide the center console and back seat
very very nice

Could I get the European key for my US version?

Jaka wybrać hybrydę …jakie zawieszenie …na co zwrócić uwagę przy zakupie …..
W hybrydach rx400h jest tylko zwykłe zawieszenie nie ma pneumatyki, na wszystko to co w zwykłym aucie, nie ma nic nadzwyczajnego
The blue in the emblem indicates it's a hybrid vehicle.....
Hi i have car like your RX400 2009 but where can i find the fuse box for replace Cigarett Lighter pls
can you pls tell me thanks
Under the bonnet or under the drivers dashboard
Blue stained Lexus/toyota emblems are for all hybrid models
How do you lock the doors from the inside. Child lock? Central locking? There isn't a button for it
There is a button on the centre console
Between the vents if i remember correctly
The blue on the lexus emblem doesn't have to do with the year it just means it's a hybrid.
But its present only on 2008 facelift hybrids
please don't confuse your viewers the blue ascent in Toyota and Lexus logos is to indicate the car is a Hybrid, not that is for fancy

I thinking about to buy an Lexus RX 400H. What is the common problem with the car ?
its just hybrid version.
No real problems. Just basic maintenance and that’s it. My RX 400h has done 410000 kms. I use it every day and I never had more reliable car.
Blue is for hybrid. Plain and simple.
In Kazachstan Lexus is synonym for luxury! Warm greetings my post-comunism friend
In America we consider Lexus best quality and reliability
I'm confused I have gcc model 😅
