I have a 2000 LX470 and as I drove down my street to go home the odometer rolled to 100,000. I LOVE my Lexus! Only complaint is the Nakamichi CD changer system.

Mine is the same year (2000), with 57,900 miles but today had the CV Boots replaced both sides, antenna mast replaced and it cost $1.000 dolllars ouch.....have you had your boots replaced? I'm not too familiar with longevity of lexus boots.

I know what you mean, while at the dealership I asked the service rep how much for 60k miles service and was told $850.00. What exactly do they do to the car that it cost so much? They don't even replace the spark plugs until 120k....oh well....

Carol- I am pretty sure that it's the sensors, you can have it done thru a local repair shop, save you some money there.
Tracy- it's ca common problem with Nakamichi stereo, ERROR3. It's SUCK. Bose is the best.

What a coincidence! I have a 2000 and it just turned 69K miles when the engine light came on.
It turned out it was the oxygen sensor. I had it replaced by a Lexus dealer and it cost me $318.00 including taxes. This also includes the $99.00 for diagnosing the problem.

Just picked up mine yesterday from the Lexus dealer: 2003, 35K, Black/Grey CPO to 100K - GREAT CAR!!!
The front end seems to bounce a lot over bumps though... as if the shocks are bad but they're hydrolic right. Any other experiences like this?

2000 LX purchased new. 167,000 miles and running like a sewing machine and looks new. Only problems over the years have been the antenna stopped working twice, a mirror needed fixing, and an exhaust leak which was fixed under warranty. I had the 90,000 mile service at Lexus which included the timing belt and water pump. It was very expensive.
Biggest problem....Lexus Dealers rip off their customers when it comes to repair. Also, in my area, the work is sloppy. I avoid them whenever I can.

2000 LX470 with 110K. Has never left me stranded. But did recently spend several thousand dollars at my indy shop (whom I trust) to do 90+105 k service (timing belt water pump), replace front axle, fix power steering leak, replace leaking shocks and other misc maintenance items. Also spent time to replace steering column lock assembly when it broke in my driveway.
Only outstanding issues are an exhaust manifold leak and side view mirrors that I can't seem to adjust anymore.

WOW! don't you guys drive you LX?!
Bought my 2000 LX a year and a half ago with 76,500 miles (Not KMS, i am in Canada but the car's from California, so its in miles),
Currently is at 108,300 miles, so i drove 31,800 miles in a year and a half!
NO problems at all with the LX! (knock on wood)
long drive to mountains in the winter and hauling a boat in the summer, still going strong!
although i have been hearing a little rattling noise from the center consol, but all mechanical and electronics works perfect!

[b]I just hit 240,000 miles with no MAJOR issues[/b], just normal fixes...
My rear differential started howling recently, the dealer wants about $3200 to replace it.
I am going to a 4x4 specialist to re-build it for about $1600...I hope this works....I would like to keep it for 2 more years.
