Lexus is known for making luxury vehicles designed according to its defining philosophy: "the pursuit of perfection". In the 2023 Auto Trader New Car Awards, it was voted 'Most Reliable Brand' for the fourth time, maintaining its status as a top manufacturer in the UK. With several cameos in TV shows (notably Breaking Bad, Silent Witness and Modern Family) and mentions in hip-hop songs (Ignition by R. Kelly and Jay-Z's Somewhere in America), this is a brand deeply ingrained in pop culture. Lexus has also made waves in the world of motorsport, becoming the first manufacturer to enter a production hybrid car - the Rx 400h - in the Nurburgring 24-hour race.

Turbochargers, usually called turbos, are designed to give your car extra power. They are only activated at certain speeds and work by forcing more air into the engine, increasing the strength of the combustion. You can read more about how turbochargers work, here.Common signs of turbo failure include a loss of power, difficulty maintaining high speeds, slower acceleration, grey/blue exhaust smoke, and a dashboard warning light.If your car shows any of the above symptoms, you may need to book a turbo repair. In some cases, a repair may not be possible, in which case a turbo replacement is required. Turbo reconditioning or turbo refurbishment is a restorative process that gives older turbos a new lease of life. If you need to replace your turbo, opting for a refurbished rather than a brand-new one is usually cheaper. Consult a turbo specialist for advice about the best option for your car.
