Hello, Can anyone please post a picture of the tools NX has? (jack, tire wrench, lug nuts etc). It bugs me to see all the missing tools and empty slots from this run flat tires I'll try to fill those empty slots. I only have 1 philips screw driver.

Thanks

 

You're lucky to even have a screwdriver. My Ontario-built NX 350h Executive (the top spec) has no tools at all.

 

parts.lexus.com appears to have the parts available. This link is specific to base model in US. There may be different options for different regions or models. Shows what's available.

I'm assuming it's because of the run flats. Probably assuming the vast majority of people will never use this stuff and its extra weight, cost, possibly noise.

Our primary line of defense is roadside assistance which doesn't need those parts.

We are considering buying some of these parts for our backup option.
I thought our second option was diy roadside repair with an inflator and patch kit. Having those parts would be critical.
I'm going to research the other goopy patch and inflation kits to see if we should just do that instead. No need to take off the tire.
I've heard rumors the tire places don't like the goop and it can mess up tpms etc. Need to see how much of that is true and balance the pros/cons.

 

If they're too cheap to give us real tires and a spare, they're not likely to give us tools.

 

My Japan built 350h has the screwdriver, and part no. 51960 on the standard part diagram, which seems to be a Hook Assy, Front.

 

Strange I have a Philips screwdriver, I rather have a flat head to open the tow hook cover, but then again, they didn't come with any tow hook eye. just keep the Lexus or AAA roadside assistance number handy.

 

I think that philips screwdriver can be flipped to be flat head?
