take it in and have it looked at under warranty.

While you are there, take out a new GS or a left over 08 GS and see if that car does it too.

My next door neighbor owns two slightly older Lexus and when he heard my wife drive by, he asked if the GS350 were a diesel.

I complained to the dealer about the same noises on my new 2008 GS350. He explained the certain Lexus engines are now using a high pressure fuel injection system. That is what is causing these noises.

Did your wife give him the finger :) ?
