After this video I found MANY more Interesting features of my IS250, check them out below! :D Part 2: ruclips.net/video/vYRLw4kRF4k/видео.html Part 3: ruclips.net/video/CKOC9UKjw_k/видео.html
This video is encouraging me to buy this car ,I just moved to the UK and I discovered they don't have the bigger lexuses of similar years like in the U.S like es330 2005 but there are plenty of is250 s.The car appears too small and I would've preferred the ES 2005 ,2006 .The UK takes so much tax if not I would have preferred to import a right handed ES 330 from australia but then it would not be cost effective
Here you have an other one: turn off the traction control completely (with the button, it will still do its work). so basically you have to: 1. apply the handbrake and start engine 2. press foot brake 2x, while holding 2x. 3. release handbrake, tighten, release tighten (keep tightened.) 4. Release foot brake, and press 2x. Have fun drifting
How do you operate the wing mirrors movement when putting it into reverse, you mentioned you can turn this feature on and of but I can't find any button that dose this? Love this video by the way. I bought a 2007 is250 just before Christmas with only 98k kilometres for €5500 in absolutely mint condition full Toyota service history. It's amazing to think this car is over 15 years old and all the feature it has
I love my IS 250. 2008 model , 120k miles, but because these are a Toyota’s luxury cars, I know my car has a long life ahead of herself. Very pretty cars. Divine.
@@b3an3er My 06 has 163K but some weird issues. Bad smell when I accerlate to get on the highway after 4th gear. Bad transmissions shifting times and some wack audio problems

Personally I love german cars, but there is no argument that japanese luxury cars will remain very nice after time when german cars start to have rattle noises in the cabin and might have reliability issues or just simply higher maintenance costs.
Man tell me about it i had an sc430 wrecked it then bought a 09 335i worst mistake i ever did bought it two years ago for 14k and ended up getting 2700.00 for it at penske Lexus for a 2015 GS350 f sport! That Bmw was nothing but problems in two years i dropped over 6 thousand in regular maintenance! Unbelievable
@@steveazusa not all are like that.. the 328i drivetrain for example is very reliable. But yes 335i are awful on reliability. I know a few people that had them and it was issue after issue. Overall a Lexus will Outlast a BMW %99 of the time. First car was a ls400 then a 01 528i(made it too 250k never left me stranded but issues up the ass) then a mustang. Ford 500. Then a 2010 Lincoln navigator decided I wanted a smaller car too got a 2011 328i and sold it right away. Cheap interior handled nice but very cheap overall got a 2013 is250 and I absolutely love it
@neil eastell totally agree, bought one for 1500€, broke 4 times and costs were almost the same when i bought it and i let it repair by a friend. if a professional would have repaired it, i would have paid way more. next car gonna be this one.
Awesome video man! I did a video like this on my IS350, and people freaked out that I used the phrase “Quirks and Features” lol. But it’s the best way to describe it. Your spec is different from my car so it’s cool to see the different stuff!
Hey Marty! I was actually watching nearly all your videos with excitment because I was waiting for a good example of IS250, and last year I finally found a perfect one! Sure I would like it to be IS350 but in my country its very expensive to register 3500cc. Anyway I'm still so so happy with my IS250, and Im getting very good milage, expect A LOT more videos about my Lexus this summer! :D
@marty motoring u should do another video on quirks and features just found out radio has an asl button that adjust volume on radio based on wind noise and speed
Wow, what a nice review! Love this. After long research and thoughts of Audis and Mercs, I ginally decided to buy this car because of it is Lexus and its reliable and thats a huge point for someone who doesnt have that much money when you are in scholarship. In 1.5 years I will get my drivers license and buy this! Also very nice is the Mark Levinson Sound System which is really a gamechanger for me.
Thank you for this video! My husband and I just bought a 2012 IS250C. I'm working my way through the huge manual, but this helped explain a couple things I didn't know about yet.
Great video ! I’ve never seen one without a sunroof before . Mine has the sunroof but my steering wheel doesn’t telescope with power .. Lexus are great cars
I dream of owning a Lexus IS250! One day, hopefully. I *believe* the first press of the Traction Control Switch actually does disable traction control, as in straight-line wheel spin. The press and holding of the switch disables stability control, hence the icon with the swerving car :)
thanks dude, i have a 2007 is220 diesel, which basically has the same features but manual transmission and tractor engine. hope you have a good time with the car still!
i think the us has strict safety laws regarding windows goin up. they need sensors to detect if a hand or someone's head is in the way. thats why so few us cars have auto up windows.
I own a Chevrolet Extreme sports truck, and, I own a Lexus 2006 IS 250 and it runs great. Good vehicle and serviced by Lexus. I am going to buy a RCF soon. I wiil keep the IS 250 as a daily drive vehicle.
The courtesy light when you approach the car I really like! I have it in my Lexus RX 450h (2010), and many of the other features of your very nice IS 250 are on my car too, but not all of them. I do have the Executive package though, so keyless entry, satnav, backup camera and such are all present. But. My 2008 BMW E93 325i also has those courtesy lights! But instead of being under the wing mirrors, they are under the door handles. So, not a unique feature, but a really nice one. Great video!
Have not watched the 2nd 1 yet so i might eat my words but, turning the traction control off doesn't actually turn it off! You have to do a whole sequence to get it off! How is easy to find on YT. Nice vid btw
Bought a 220d 2008 with +130000km/+80000 mi on the odometer a few months ago, there where a few things I didn’t know about, so thank you. Will o/c watch part II & III.
I have a 2005 RX and this has the window function but it also opens and closes the moon roof , my mirrors also move down in reverse, I don't have the fart clearance button though that's new! Also the RX has HID headlights with tracking so they follow the road as you turn this was back in 05...
Yeah I know lexuses with moonroof also opens/closes with key. Forgot to tell about headlights turning left right as you go into corner but I dis discover more quirks and will do Part 2 :D Stay tuned
Favorite lexus is250 channel and you're just starting out. Loving the content and can't wait to see what else you bring down the road. The white definitely gives off a more distinct look, I'm debating between white or black. Cheers
Thanks for following, will do a lot more, I even have a list of things to do, yeah to me pearl white is the best color for the car, black also looks very nice but it gets dirty fast. Anyway stay tuned!
Litle warning for when using the windshieldwiperheater...there's a big chance your windshield will crack...mine did and the reason is because in the winter the complete windshield is cold and it only heats the bottom part of the windshield,giving a lot of stress in the glass...be warnd...a set of new wipers cost les then a new windscreen
I had this car for two years, gorgeous car, reliable, comfy and luxurious, despite being 11 years old it looked much better than some 2 year old cars from the same segment. The only problem I had with this car, that it's incredibly slow and heavy.. it's speed is a joke for a V6. felt like driving a cow lol. Some diesel Skoda octavias felt faster than this 208hp car. I wish we had IS350 in europe
@@VuckoHD Hi. Just bought a 2008 UK Sport version. What are the other differences apart from the seats and 18 inch wheels, to the 'Luxury' version? The suspension is the same?
How do you do the wing mirror thing when you put it into reverse? Is there a button that is hidden as ive looked and pressed everything lol and can't find it🤦♂️
Nice little walkaround. Been looking for a new car and even though my eyes are on a BMW 525i E60, this is on my radar too.. Question in case you still have the car or still remember; What was your average fuel consumption? Also, the window thing, many cars have lol, goes back years and years, my 2002 SEAT Leon 1M had the same option lol
7:46 I actually doubt that this is to illuminate the middle console. My guess is that its the alarm system in case someone breaks in. If you lock the car and place the key far enough away so the car can't recognize it anymore and you then move your hand beneath the little lamp the alarm system will come on.
I recently purchase the same exact car and year. Please let me know if there is a quick fix to turn off the abs, brake and traction lights. I’ve tried everything with the dealer and diagnostic test and nothing could be found. Thanks for your help!
Thanks for sharing this great video. i own the same model but when i reverse, the side mirror doesn't tilt like what your car does. Do you have any idea why? Or is it because some settings need to be adjusted
Roooster NoName wax based car soap and washing each 10 days will go a long way, my 09 250 shines better than some new 2019 cars that were purchased in my neighbourhood in the last 3 months...
Nice video. I have a '13 IS300, one of the last few units of the dealer before they released the newer model. I love it and can't find a reason to replace it. The brake cooling duct is indeed an awesome feature. Worth mentioning too that these cars are rear wheel drive. Wish you happy miles with your car!
I said 2005 based on this website and I also saw few 2005 IS250 on sale. www.zeperfs.com/en/fiche1342-lexus-is-250-auto.htm Thanks for watching my video :)
Hi tell me man what make it lose speed or that makes it pick a full speed Cos mine it's only drives at 40 km per hour and that makes me not drive it coz it courses traffic
I just bought a 2014 is250c. Peeled the plastic film *caution be sure to slowly peel each corner and whichever one removes both layers, go with that one and hope you get it all 1st time. It's 2 payers and it's a pia to remove them separately. The changing of the rpm and speed is freaking awesome. Not sure what the speedometer does, but ima find out. I wasn't aware of what the pwr snow button did, ty kindly 😀 Wow I have a fart button!!! Sweet. Do you know where the fragrance container is located?

Literally what I’m doing rn

@@b3an3er sheesh. im looking at one right now with around 80K - how expensive is the maintenance?
@@ds_xx I got mine at 70k tan smith until like two three years ago it started burning oil cause I didn’t take enough care of it as when I first got it
@@ds_xx but to answer your question, it’s it takes about 2/3 liters of oil every two weeks or so
@@b3an3er My 06 has 163K but some weird issues. Bad smell when I accerlate to get on the highway after 4th gear. Bad transmissions shifting times and some wack audio problems
Thank you, I recently purchased a 2007 IS 250 to replace my IS 200. You showed features that I didn't know existed. Superb car.
Andy Chase are those features he mentioned available in the 2007 model is250?
Andy Chase I got a 2007 is250 too and I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE it
I’ve just bought an immaculate low mileage 2007 is250 😃. Love it.

I just bought my is250 today! Very satisfied with my purchase
You can tell me your fuel consumption? I have to consider that if i want this car like that 😂
just got my is250 last year. its a 2012 and i love it. great video man thank you🙏🏽 love from FL
Thank you for making this video. I test drove a Lexus IS 250 today and didn't know anything that you just pointed out. You have been so helpful! :o)
This is one of the best videos I've seen on the IS250, and it gets right to the point. Thanks!
Understatement, coolness
and reliability. My first drive in a Lexus was a GS. A really good car. But I will never miss my IS. Love this car.
Great video! I didn't realize it would roll the windows up by holding the opposite button. Very helpful.
Jeff Grant If you leave the L or R selector for mirror controls to either side, the mirrors will point down on reverse
This feature is printed in the owner's manual.
@@MartyMotoring even for base models without memory seats?
Thanks for explaining the cabin air filter. I had no idea what that button was for.
That’s not what it does at all.
@@TJ-rx4zl then what does it do?
Great video. Your English is fantastic. Not just your pronunciation but your sentence structure and uninterrupted flow.
Congrats you bought a car with real quality not like German cars that have initial quality
Personally I love german cars, but there is no argument that japanese luxury cars will remain very nice after time when german cars start to have rattle noises in the cabin and might have reliability issues or just simply higher maintenance costs.

You'll love the car. I really like the German automakers but the Lexus is more reliable and it's good looking as well. Can't go wrong!
Did you get it
I didn't even know they made the IS without a moonroof
It's called the X package
The card holder slot in the sun visor is also a parking ticket holder.
😂
well done sir.
in that case, they should have left it on the other side so it does blow away.

I'm going to buy this car. So your videos will be perfect before i buy it
Here’s a bloke that loves his Lexus . They are a likeable car .
Great video ! I’ve never seen one without a sunroof before . Mine has the sunroof but my steering wheel doesn’t telescope with power .. Lexus are great cars
Thank you for the video and all the tips. Had my is220D 2 days and loving it so far.
It looks so funny without a sunroof. I definitely made sure mine came with one lol
Dude I love this vid
Great work
And thanks a ton! I’m sold! On the 350 😜🙌
I dream of owning a Lexus IS250! One day, hopefully. I *believe* the first press of the Traction Control Switch actually does disable traction control, as in straight-line wheel spin. The press and holding of the switch disables stability control, hence the icon with the swerving car :)
Yes! you're correct
I have an 08..I didn't know the remote could roll the windows up & down Thanks👍
thanks dude, i have a 2007 is220 diesel, which basically has the same features but manual transmission and tractor engine. hope you have a good time with the car still!
Great video! I have this car and did not know half of this stuff existed! I just get in and drive. Thanks 😊
Thanks for the video about the cool hidden features, it came in very handy and I appreciate my is250 more.
Great video! I like how you show some of the features most videos miss. I learned so new thinks i didnt know. Great, keep it up.
Wow your key makes windows go back up!? Must be different outside of the USA models. Ours only put the windows down.
i think the us has strict safety laws regarding windows goin up. they need sensors to detect if a hand or someone's head is in the way. thats why so few us cars have auto up windows.
My favorite feature is that the car is so comfortable and it's longevity
Way ahead of its time.....😳
My Skyline R33 had a snow mode, a useful feature for sure
Found this so useful, thanks for the upload
“Shows when your supposed to shift or something” at 5k rpm lol

@@ZOMEXCSGO lmfao it's a joke. he's just saying if you turn the steering wheel the wheels will turn also, like any car.
the headlights turn with the wheel 🫠
The armrest compartment comes with cooler function when you turn on the AC. Just my two cents.
Would this be included in a 2008 IS 250?
@@daedricjon1169 Yes. Please check with the AC on at low temperature. And make sure the vent toward rear seat is opened.

How do you do the wing mirror thing when you put it into reverse? Is there a button that is hidden as ive looked and pressed everything lol and can't find it🤦♂️
The switch to choose which side mirror to adjust, move it to the R (right side) and they try to put the car in reverse and see

Also, the window thing, many cars have lol, goes back years and years, my 2002 SEAT Leon 1M had the same option lol
I love that when revolutionizing the engine it turns orange, excellent lexus !!!
you miss one for trunk lock in the glove box
7:46 I actually doubt that this is to illuminate the middle console. My guess is that its the alarm system in case someone breaks in. If you lock the car and place the key far enough away so the car can't recognize it anymore and you then move your hand beneath the little lamp the alarm system will come on.
I read it in cars manual, that little light is described as gear lever light or something
It’s a common Toyota features. It’s there to illuminate the dash/console.
I recently purchase the same exact car and year. Please let me know if there is a quick fix to turn off the abs, brake and traction lights. I’ve tried everything with the dealer and diagnostic test and nothing could be found. Thanks for your help!
Do you still have the car?

Thanks for sharing this great video. i own the same model but when i reverse, the side mirror doesn't tilt like what your car does. Do you have any idea why? Or is it because some settings need to be adjusted
The selector for the mirror adjustment has to be on l or r it can't be centered
Blaine Macdonald Thanks for your reply
how is your paint so good? my 2011 is tore up
Roooster NoName wax based car soap and washing each 10 days will go a long way, my 09 250 shines better than some new 2019 cars that were purchased in my neighbourhood in the last 3 months...
My “06” sparkles more than the newer cars in my area. Matador Mica Red!! Lovin it!!
Perfect auto ! Thanks for movie.
What’s traction control for
Snow days..
How did you say you change that little clear cover over the letters by the shifter mine is all scratched up
Thanks, I am updating to the 250 from the 220D, but a lot of these features are on the 220, but not all, thanks
Hey good job man. Great work.
Thank you
Nice video. I have a '13 IS300, one of the last few units of the dealer before they released the newer model. I love it and can't find a reason to replace it. The brake cooling duct is indeed an awesome feature. Worth mentioning too that these cars are rear wheel drive. Wish you happy miles with your car!
I could be wrong, but I believe the Generation II started in 06'
I said 2005 based on this website and I also saw few 2005 IS250 on sale. www.zeperfs.com/en/fiche1342-lexus-is-250-auto.htm
Thanks for watching my video :)
Yes, that's right because my is 250 is 2005.
Great vids
Appreciate your Lexus vids bro…I got a Lexus is250 f sport now
Does it have blue tooth music or just hands free phone connection?
Has 3.5mm headphone jack that can take phone calls and play music too. No bluetooth music, music comes from headphone jack in my 2009 IS250
@@VuckoHD thank you
Hi tell me man what make it lose speed or that makes it pick a full speed
Cos mine it's only drives at 40 km per hour and that makes me not drive it coz it courses traffic
I just bought a 2014 is250c. Peeled the plastic film *caution be sure to slowly peel each corner and whichever one removes both layers, go with that one and hope you get it all 1st time. It's 2 payers and it's a pia to remove them separately.
The changing of the rpm and speed is freaking awesome. Not sure what the speedometer does, but ima find out.
I wasn't aware of what the pwr snow button did, ty kindly 😀
Wow I have a fart button!!! Sweet. Do you know where the fragrance container is located?
I love my IS 250👏
The auto wing mirror on unlock/lock - is this a stock feature or aftermarket feature?
