Default New IS Owner

Just purchased an 08 Is 250. It is my first Lexus and I can't wait to get more familiar behind the wheel. Car is RWD and has 45k on the clock. I do already have one problem though. I have the Nav system. The satellite radio will not hold service. When I power off the vehicle and it sits for more than an hour the satellite radio resets and I have to resend the activation signal from xmsirius. I have had to do this 7 times and they say its radio issue. Nearest dealership is 150 miles away. Looking for things I may could do or check before making the trip. Thanks! Other than that I love the car so far!

It's there.


Also really haven't even started researching or thinking about things to do to it. I was always a camaro mustang trans am guy in my teens so this is a new thing to me. Obviously not intending to go fast anymore just interested in the look and luxury. So far so good.
