Hi All,
I'm new to this so bear with me if I mess it up. I have a 2015 NX200T F Sport. It is blue with a black & red interior. I have added sheepskin seat covers and a red dash and it looks pretty amazing. I have been having a problem with the car since January after owning the car 6 months. I started having issues with it not starting right away. It seems to start then just dies. Sometimes it takes just one more try to get it to start but sometimes it takes multiple tries. The first time happened I took it right to the dealer and they couldn't replicate it and that has been the theme since. Where is used to do it once in awhile it now does it just about every day. The dealer has had multiple specialists look at the car and they can find nothing wrong. I even gave them a video of what it does since they can't get it to do it when they have it. They've had the car multiple times, twice for over a week. This doesn't just happen to me, it has happened to my husband while driving my car. The dealer has no idea what to do for it and I am pretty frustrated.
Everyone tells me just wait until it finally dies and then maybe it can be fixed. Not very comforting as it was pretty new when problem began. Apparently I am the only person in the US that has this problem with this car? Any one else have this issue?

My wife had this happen a couple of times. What we found was that she was holding the start button too long. She started hitting it for a second or less and has had no problems since.

Welcome to the forum and hopefully we can help. In addition to olgzr's tip, please note that the NX has a harder time starting when on an incline or when the fuel tank is less than 1/4 full. Easily mitigated by correcting these. You can refer to this thread for more info: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/nx-...-starting.html

Hi, to those who have purchased an nx with creme nuluxe, any issues with cleaning or color transfer from jeans onto the seat?

No issue for me. We have the black NuLuxe in our ES and the creme in the NX. The creme is definitely easier for us, but we only deal with adult passengers. No pets, no kids.

The denim will will transfer a bit, but I haven't had any trouble cleaning it off. Still less annoying than the black, which is impossible to keep looking clean. Shows every speck of dust - and I am just too **** for that.

First time Lexus owner here. I recently bought a 2016 NX F Sport with Premium Package and a few other options. Mine is in Atomic Silver with the red interior. Look forward to joining in on the discussions here.

Congrats! Looks like we've got twins - even down to the rims! Great color choice!

Thumbs up New NX Owner

Good day everyone! We live in Cape Coral Florida, and just purchased a new 2016 NX 200t F Sport. This car will be driven predominately by my wife. She loves it! We traded in a 2014 IS 350 F SPORT for it. She also loved that! The NX is Ultra White with Red interior.

We just picked up a 2017 NX200t in Matador Red Mica / Black Premium, Navi, Blind Spot. It is mostly my girlfriend's car, but I'll get to drive it a bit. I'll be the only one wasting time reading about it on the forum. My other cars are a 2016 Infiniti Q50 Red Sport sedan. My daughter drives a 2010 ES350 that she inherited from grandma.

Hey I'm new here. Picked up a 2015 NX 300h a couple of days ago. The car is pretty loaded and in great shape with 28,000 miles. Eminent white pearl with creme interior. What a sweet car. Wife will primarily be driving it, I'll move into her 08 Highlander Hybrid, and 17 year old son will move into my old Honda Accord.

Can't say enough about this forum, so much useful information. Thanks to all who've posted over the past few years, y'all made the task of researching the car so much easier.
