I tried tapping the motor a few times with a bit of metal to see if if would budge while moving the switch back and forth....it wouldn't budge...fortunately its in a perfect driving position so I will leave well enough alone. At the same time I replaced the C148 gear in the Up-Down motor as it had become noisy, packed the little gear box with grease, and its quiet again. Thanks for your help Paul...much appreciated.

Hi all! I know not many of these vehicles were produced, but would love some help finding one. Willing to travel. (I'm in the NoVA/DC area). If you are a current owner and just looking to upgrade, or upside to an SUV, would love to chat with you. Also if anyone knows other places to look other than cars.com, autotrader, autotempest, etc. Seeking: 2017-2018 model Around 100k or less miles, some flexibility above that if the price is reasonable Black interior not tan/red/etc. Flexible on exterior color: generally prefer silver/gray/white No salvage titles or serious accidents, reasonably maintained

My TX500h was great for a while, but then started experiencing poor gas mileage. It then lost almost all power and I had alternating error messages about the hybrid system just as I started on a long trip on June 3. I had the car towed to the dealership on June 4. I was told that the hybrid computer module failed and was back ordered. My car is third on the waitlist. The part has to come from Japan and has an expected arrival of earl July. The dealership gave me a TX350 as a loaner, but they won’t let me drive it out of state. I bought the car for long trips, mainly out of state, so I am out of luck. I thought Lexus vehicles were reliable.

@Kent H what did you find i have a 95 sc300 we bought a tweaked harness and everything works but the instrument cluster no lights coolant fuel speedo and rpm are inop everything worked with the stock harness when we switched to tweaked nothing worked

I’m having heat radiate under the passenger rear seat. Years ago I was inadvertently told that my vehicle needs something added to the hydraulic suspension, I was never sure what they were telling my husband because he wasn’t able to communicate with me what they said it needed. I’ve driven around 20,000 since they first told me. I don’t know how long it’s been getting hot under my car, I only. discovered it by accident. Is it safe to continue to drive it?

Hopefully, you'll get a direct answer, but I am curious why you would not consider an ES300h. My sister has one and cannot be any happier, especially with its stellar gas mileage of 42 MPG average and up to 50 mpg on the highway.

How do you manually disable this feature? I'm having the same problem!! annoying....

I have a 2006 SC430. I can’t unlock the doors or open the truck using the key fob. The battery is good the little red light on the fob works. Everything in the car works fine. Door locks lock and unlock using the buttons in the car. The button in the car that opens the truck does not work. Any suggestions?

Draining just the radiator should be sufficient. You do know the proper procedure on how to refill and bleed the cooling system?

The lower shaft descriptions are confusing; non-tilt, tilt, can't install it on the column, etc. I've never done column work on the LS, other than to lower it from the dash to access the ignition switch. In order to disassemble/assemble the column, I would recommend removing it from the vehicle and working on it on a bench. Hopefully, the attachments will be of some help.

So I was cruising along in my pristine 2011 LX 570 STOCK(as the should be). Do not even get me started on the idiots who ruin the reputation of the brand by "modding" or "tricking out" there vehicles. Anyways. There I was jamming out to my favorite classic rock station, when I pull into the gas station, when I see the most sensational women I have ever seen filling up her '97 chevy. She comes over my beautiful car( as it does attract quite a bit of female attention), and leans into my window. She proceeds to tell me how much she fancies the 5.7 Liter V8 in my absolute horse of a vehicles. After inviting her into my car, she tells me there is something wrong with my car. Excuse me. Not my 2011 Lexus Lx 570. After reaching around I realize that my vehicle is upequipped to handle the sheer power of a bigger women. Let me tell you know if she aint over 280 she aint a lady. Live by that die by that. Anyways. I would like to file a complaint to Lexus about the structural integrity of their passsenger seats in the first gen Lx 570s. If anyone could help me resolve this tragedy, that would be greatly appreciated.

Agree. I had mine installed by the dealer. Price, including install was less than ordering the parts from Rock. Also the originals lasted 16 years, I doubt any of the aftermarkets will last even close to that long, assuming they even work right. If your vehicle is old enough it doesn't already have TPMS, I have no advice, never tried the remote cap ones.

deluciadominick88@gmail.co mine is the tail lights I just have brake lights Is it the module

@tomscot2 Whew. What a relief the system sorted itself out eventually. Odd that it didn't do so within minutes of the upgrade. Glad you're sorted.

Any updates on the car?

actually, the question I think you’re looking for is what mutes the amplifier after it fires up mine plays for about two3 seconds and quits after turning on the ignition I can turn the ignition off and back on again and the musical play again for 2 to 3 seconds I hear a pop through the speakers. All speakers have been checked and worked perfect and hear the amplifier turn on, but do not hear the amplifier turn off. Is there a communication box between the radio and the amplifier with a digital mute line

Hello I just got my 2024 RX 500h F sport. I love everything about it except the Sound system. I’ve tried adjusting and readjusting but sitting in the driver seat still sometimes sounds like a tin can. I realize that it depends on what I’m listening to, when it was recorded, and other factors that make it sound good or not so good. But I’m wondering if there’s anyone out there who has made any changes to the Sound system to make it better and if you were successful, what did you do? I have the Levinson 21 speaker Sound-system.

You charged a trash battery, Buy a new one.

Hi Everybody, My name is Mira I'm new to the forum. I have owned my 2014 CT200h for 8 years and it has been a super dependable car. I recently had an electrical issue and my brother said the code P0A80 was a hybrid/EV battery pack replacement code. My question is what are your recommendations for replacement. I see a lot of options out there and since I have an electrical engineering background, replacing the pack myself is not a problem and will save me a lot of money. I searched the site but did not see anything on this topic which surprised me. Thank you

Did I make mistake getting the RX350 Premium+ gas version? Should I have gotten the NX350H instead? MSRP price for 2024 RX Premium Plus was $58,900.00 and I got it for $51,200.00 plus tax amd fees. I thought it was good deal so I got it. I could have gotten the NX350H Premium with HUD for about $52k plus tax and fees but would save about $500 per year on gas. The NX350H premium however doesn't have real leather, no digital rear mirror and no advance parking. These additional features don't seem necessary though. I'm a bit regretting not getting the RX350H instead... Please share your thoughts. Thank you!
