Hybrid TechnologyUnique topics related to the 2004 -2009 RX400H model hybrid drivetrain and other features/options found only on the RX400H. Please use the main forum for discussion about shared components with other second generation RX models.
I am considering to buy a pre-owned RX400H likely 2007/2008...
What should I look-out for that model/year ?
Any form of tips would help...
my current ride is a 5 series sedan, hoping to have a good boot space for my baby..
I have YM 2007 and blew my inverter last week. I got mine with around 109000 km in it, and it blew at around 125000 km. I have a warranty that covered the costs. I've seen a few cases like this on these forums, but I can't really tell what is the % of failed inverters.
See if your selected RX has had a recall, and inverter handled. Also see if you can get a nice warranty that would cover also the hybrid system.
I was concerned about the few inverter failure cases I ran into, but went ahead and got mine. It's an awesome car. Go get one, preferably with a nice warranty
