    Great Video! Scotty Kilmers and your content was one of the reasons I bought a RCF with almost 100k Kilometres (62k Miles) on it.
    I have now covered almost 5k in half a year and enjoyed every second of it.
    I can only agree with your statements. This car is still a jawdropper. I get so many thumbs up from other drivers, it's just fun.
    Keep up the great work and have fun on the Autobahn. I'm sure you've heard it but there will be no speed limit anytime soon in Germany.

      Thanks! Wow only 5k miles in half a year? How? Thats like straight discipline. Even though it is a 2015, everyone asks what year the RCF is which is a testament that this could be a timeless body design.

      My daily commute is only about 5 miles total. I really need a longer way to work.😅
      But sometimes I take a little detour so it's not too many short trips. I would say 4k km was just for fun or trips to my family and friends. Even high gasoline prices didn´t spoil the mood for trips too much and at the moment I consume about 18 liters per 100km. That's about 13 miles per gallon.
      But it is worth any cent.😁

    I wish I knew about RC F more back in 2023, I would have got the 2022 with CF + TVD. I bought an IS 500, the 2UR and 8Spd are solid but the chassis is not up to the mark for the engine as when I test drove an RC F it completely caught me off guard how damn comfortable these seats are and the chassis is very rigid. The problem with 2023+ cars is Lexus gutted them bad. They removed Memory seat from 2022, they removed the Bracing from engine bay, they removed TVD option. They also removed the Auto-tilt mirrors in reverse as well. I don't mind the memory and auto tilt but that brace is really special, for a reason they had it since 2015 and they yanked it off. Shame. I wish I can get a good RC F, I tried BAT but no luck as of now. I'll wait or bite soon. I want to play with that TVD and the car itself.

    Hey! Love your vids I just subbed. I need to do the things you recommended in your list of 5 things to do. Question for you, I have the chirping noise, will I be okay in the long run? Should I bring it up on my 30k mile service and in front dash I’m getting cracking noise on the speaker when I drive over a bump but the sound of the music is crystal clear I’m wondering if it’s a common issue. The last thing is I get squealing from my left front tire when I hit 80 mph and it disappears once I hit 90+. What do you think that is?

    • @thehuangbros
      @thehuangbros  3 года назад

      Thanks for the sub. Definitely do the 5. The chirping noise is fine, later I found out its just the direct injection noise. The cracking noise is not normal. I would bring it up since youre still under warranty til 50k miles. Squealing usually is a sign of the brake system. But since your going up in speed could be something else that is touching metal on metal. I would check the brakes first but is this squealing consistent every time from 80-90mph?

    • @MrStonedMcgee
      @MrStonedMcgee 3 года назад

      @@thehuangbros so the squealing starts a bit at 50 mph and gets gradually louder up until 80 mph (seems to be the sweet spot) as I start going to 85 it gets quieter and 90 it’s almost inaudible then at 100+ it’s completely inaudible. It’s really weird. It’s almost like the wind is going through a little hole causing it to whistle if that makes sense.

      @@MrStonedMcgee look at your brake rotor surface, check if there isnt a circular crevice that could be made from a stuck rock. I would then check the dust shield to ensure it is not touching rotor. Then make sure the brackets for brake pads is in correct. Two people had it not installed correctly and it was the cause of the squealing.

    • @MrStonedMcgee
      @MrStonedMcgee 3 года назад

      Hey! I figured out what it actually was. It’s my side view mirror causing the wind noise. I put my hand in front of the mirror as I get higher speed and the squealing goes away 100% and then I remove my hand away and it starts up again. I took it to the dealer and they said they’re going to look at the PPF before swapping parts on it.

    Nice review. It’s reassuring that you have done 100miles without major issues. I’m still undecided on what Lexus I would like to buy. I’m about 6”3 and broad. I’ve sat in an isf and being tall my head just clears the roof too tight for comfort. Finding a late isf without a moonroof is too and far between. The gsf seats aren’t a perfect fit for me. Got scared off with a TVD code displayed on the dash. Saying that the battery was flat could of been the cause I’m not sure. I would like to try an RCF with a carbon roof. How are the rear seats?

      That is interesting for the tvd statement. Ive never heard of that. The rear seats are good. When I am back there, it is comfortable for me but im 5”10. I think 6”3 height will touch the roof for sure. You would need to scoot the seat way forward for you to enjoy. My height, I just needed a good 8-9in from cushion to back seat and I was comfortable

Then I had a chance to get another rcf since I wrecked the torsen one and decided to go TVD since I drove my friend’s. The turning was more apparent not by a lot but there was a noticeable difference. So I choose tvd. But replacing torsen with os giken is probably next level.

      Ive DIY’d on my friend’s A90. It isnt too bad. The suspension installs weren’t too hard either. I helped change all the arms and links to SPL. Suspension set ups, front and lower braces. All of that is not hard. Services wise, I have not helped touch. Lexus RCF however is real simple. I have many DIY vids if you search through my channel. To me, RCF is easier to work on.

    Having owned one of these, the only thing I miss is the sound of the engine and the styling. Maintenance was not cheap but it was rather basic when compared to an M3/M4 for example. Had a Stinger GT afterwards and it's kinda comical just how more modern and faster the Stinger felt, let alone more comfortable. Maintenance was a A LOT cheaper too. Go for these if you NEED and REQUIRE a V8; otherwise, the competition has this beat.

    whats a good mileage to do the transmission fluid and filter change? i dont drive it hard or track at all

    • @thehuangbros
      @thehuangbros  3 года назад

      you should do it every 30k. I plan to do that for my 120k. But in your owner's manual, when it says inspect transmission fluid, to me personally, it means do a drain and fill. They want you to check that fluid at 30k but at that point you might as well do a drain and fill. Regardless if track or drive hard at all, there is metallic residue from gear on gear action inside the trans. I did a 60k drain and fill and did a 50k drain and fill on my friend's RCF. It looked the same in darkness. I did a 90k, that looked pretty also, very comparable to the 50k.
