For real...dude...jaswood, why did you come on here if you don't like the advice people are taking OUT OF THEIR TIME to answer your stupid question?!?

So I am at about 185K and need to re do the timing belt and supporting parts. I understand AISIN is a supplier to Toyota but does anyone know anything about GMB parts? They're way cheaper but i realize i pay for what i get too....looking for some feed back or comments on GMB, KoYo tensioners/bearings...etc. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks!

I know i am late to this party....but if i were to clamp on it in the general area where your finger is, while the mechanism is in the upward position, where should I clamp from? e.g. from the window side?

thanks for that, just wanted to be certain as most posts indicate movement issues.. I'm ordering the part now.. if anyone else is interested.... i found this site .. the cost for air mix servo is $152.00 with free shipping..@ www.mylexparts.com. I'll update after installation. thanks. Was wondering of an update? I am still on the fence if i break down and buy the servos before i tear it all apart, or just try cleaning/readjusting the mechanicals....

I have them in my wifes RX300 and they are awesome! I want to get them for my Tundra cause they are so great!

I noticed that the drivers side headlight bulb burnt out on my 2000 RX300. I went to AutoZone and purchased a new one and installed it and it works fine. My question is how do I replace the outer most bulb in that same lens? Do I need to go up into the wheel well? Do i disconnect the fuse box (drivers side) and get into the fender that way to access this bulb that shares the headlight lens. This is NOT the marker lights on the sides of the bumper cover....rather located in with the headlight. It is the OUTER MOST bulb. Thanks

Thanks for the input!

So one of the features that I really like about my RX is it's ability to click the window switch button and it'll go down w/o me having to hold it. It does the same with the window going upward, one pull and boom it's going up. I like that you can control all windows like this from the drivers door as well as each individual window with its respective window. My question is this....is the ability for this to happen a function of the switch itself or the cars computer system? This switch seems to physically be identical to the window switch in my 2007 Tundra p/u and I was wondering if i ordered the RX switch for the tundra, if it'd work the same? Thanks

The side panel on my drivers side started cracking and looking crappy. I think the cover for the seat pan alone from the stealership (hold your breath) was nearly $900 USD!!! I wound up taking it to a local upholstery place and paid $250 to have it disassembled repaired with a new panel and re-installed. It doesn't look bad at all either. It is the beige leather on a 2000 RX300. Good luck!

HAHAHA...no silly. It is behind the air bag under the steering wheel.

Or you can just buy the motor that cost $4.97 and a mini RC gear puller and fix it yourself.

haha you are right.. that solved the vacuum line issue.. working on the coolant hoses now . never worked on my car before.. so its an experience in itself! as long as it dont blow up or something when i goto start it i suppose.. thx a ton! Why did you remove all that stuff? I worked around the plenum, though i did remove the air box boot. And i needed to remove the EGR valve on the passengers side near the firewall. Anyway, the whole job, w/o removing the plenum took 3 hours and i am not a mechanic.

Liquid wrench?! Why not Silicon spray......?

I thought this too....so i got Denso's...when i did the job (w/o removal of the plenum) and removed the original plugs, they were NGK's. I did my first plug job at 120,000 and they looked just a nice as the new plugs. No deterioration whatsoever!

What is the vehicle model and model year?
