Probably going to take some HEAT for saying this, but it's the truth: I've gone thru two dash cams very quickly and finally gave up the notion that electronics operated above the dashboard will last very long. Computer chips/components generate a lot of heat due to higher clock speeds. Add to that temperatures near 150 F in direct sunlight, and you have a situation where components age quicker than they would sitting on your stereo/TV shelf. A good practice is to keep a bright reflective dash or windshield cover in use after parking outside. And always park facing the car away from the sun. That also reduces the heat build up on your seats and seat-backs which in turn reduces wear on the seat fabric. Just whistling past the junk yard.

One running lamp is brighter than the other. I have replaced both bulbs to unsure they are the same and the problem persists. Any ideas?? 208 Lexus GX470

my 2019 rx350 Fsport ML radio gone and the computer screen gone black 3 weeks ago. I paid 3500 for the radio when I purchased the car in 2019. They said they have to replace the radio for $2600. what the waste of money !!

The LS500 exhaust system has two GPF (gasoline particulate filters). These cars seem to have a propensity for emitting white exhaust smoke in cold weather. Could this be due to the gasoline particulate filters that Lexus uses on the 3.4 twin turbo V6?

Sorry, I’m referring to the old conventional one-piece spin-on type that most cars have used for decades like my 2002 LS430 uses.

This vehicle does use a cartridge-style filter, as seen in the link, above.

Any thoughts on why 23LJ01 (2nd Key Fob program) is not listed as a service campaign on the status/health tabs of the Lexus app? I have reported to the NHTSA as I see this as a safety/security issue. The digital key is very glitchy and could leave one stranded. Lost phone or dead phone battery or dead spot could also leave one locked out and stranded. Lexus should have, at the least, provided a lower tech card key as a backup.

Why did they have to reinvent the oil filter instead of using a regular spin-on type like most other vehicles for the past 50 years?

What are so mods I can do for a Lexus RC 350

O2 sensors changed. still no help with rough idle. car starts fine. Lexus claims it's due to faulty fuel injector system flooding the right cylinder bank. they claim fuel injection system is unavailable. any ideas? spent about $4500 to fix and still have the problem could you a little advice. thx / Rog
