Weird issue started last night--I have an 08 and when you go to lock the doors the two front doors will not lock--you can see them jog a little but do not lock.. The back doors and rear lock fine. also I have them set to auto lock after you take off and again all lock but the front doors?

Gonna cost you a small fortune to convert, even if it can logically be done! Buy a newer GX or you may just have to live with it

Need to take it to the dealer where they hook up the laptop and adjust all the settings

Has anyone upgraded their Nav system with the New Version 9.1? Specifically a Gen 5 DVD system as Im hearing reports that they finally included Alaska in the newest version? I would like to know for sure before I buy. SO if anybody has this version can you check to see it Alaska is on the Map please

Steve is great.

I also purchased the non hid lights that would match the 4300k hid in color for hi beam and fog.

They all match in color nicely but the high beams dont have the same distance punch as the factory bulbs.

So now I'm running the low beam hids, stock hi beams (slightly different color light) and halogen fogs that match the hid color and have a nice punch to them as well.

I'd be curious to see how folks hi beam hid results are.

What bulbs did you get for the Fogs to match your HIDS?? Where did you get them---also the high beams as well

Just wondering if anyone has installed an HID kit (ballast and all) on a GX?! I'm looking into it now, just wondering if it's worth my while or if I should just stick w/ the stock setup...

Any help would me much appreciated.

DOnt let these guys scare you..lol

A HID kit from xenondepot.com is a Plug and play kits and is a very nice install! Tons of GX owners have done it and with our Projecters and self leveling rear suspension it makes for a wonderfull add on thats way worth it! The beam pattern has a very nice cutoff and DOES not blind Anyone, I have had mine for a year woth Zero problems and not a Single flasher from oncoming traffic and the light at night is wonderful!

Here are a couple of good post on the subject.

I put a Clifford remote start on my 08 GX, it works awesome. DEI makes clifford and Viper just differant brands to speak of.

Here is the one I got CLIFFORD

Yes you will be able to control all functions thru the steering wheel and if you have Navigation the song titles will show up on the Nav screen

Well to get it done RIGHT--I would take it to lexus and just have them do a Diagnostic on it for say 1/2 hr of labor $$ so you will know exactly what kind of bill you are looking for. With todays cars you almost Have to take it to a dealer to get it worked on--it may not be as bad as you think

Im sure this is the fix to your problem--print out and take to your dealer if they want to play stupid.

AND go read this thread as it talkes about it as well Engine noise

I had mine cruising at 80 today for a bit, it was so smooth and quite I thought it was electric:)

Where is the subwoofer located on the 2008 GX? Do we have more than 1?

Yes I have the ML system

Dont know yet-Mine only has 100 miles on it:)

No one has this answer?

Hey I cant answer your question but go here: http://www.clublexus.com/forums/gx-470-model-115/

much more activity and you may find your answer

Is there a IPOD interface you can get thru Lexus? I thought they had one now!

Illuminating the earth by day, and illuminating a road at night are two different things. Being unhappy with the color of the sun is not relevant here.

For my experience the 5000 bulb provides better illumination.

Then you probably have a mutant gene or two, might be best to check just in case.

There you go again, stating complete nonsense.

You have an 08 350! Take it back to the dealer, could be the whole Nav screen unit needs replacing

My 08 RX350 with 5K is PERFECT!

You better go back to Mercedes--I wouldnt get a GS because its another Lexus...

Weird, I didnt think you could buy a New RX without Hids!!

Yep There is a TSB out for this

Yep the crap-years suck!

I made my dealer swap the crappers for Michelins:)

Yes every car has this effect! You need to crack open a window and it will stop!

Im glad I got the button to turn ALL that stuff off at one 3-sec push:) Its pretty fun in the snow now doing some power sno drifts in empty parking lots

Go to your dealer--service adviser and have him order you a 7.1--I went and complained a little about the Iagree and they bought me a 7.1 for free and just replaced it as a warrenty item. Im happy now.

Dont let them tell you NO--they can do it.
