  1. you can make stock fogs hid-you need ballasts and bulbs, and prob a new harness for extra amps
  2. search steering pretensioner-there was also a problem with 98-00 racks, in which some were replaced free by dealer with updated rack
  3. I would call Darrel Diller. He can probably get you a good price on an oem Darrel Diller Internet Division Manager Sewell Lexus of Dallas www.lexus-parts.com 6421 Lemmon Avenue Dallas, TX 75209 (866) 770-3099 ext: 2826 (214) 353-2826 (214) 350-5398 Fax ddiller@sewell.com
  4. yup. my 95 ES had expansion valve replaced acout a year ago-same exact symptoms
  5. imho i think that is one of the lamest gs400s i have seen. i mean it looks like an entire forest was cut down for all that wood grain, and the skulls painted on the engine cover. i think its tacky and tasteless but i guess at the end of the day its still a lexus, im just saying i think its nasty :whistles: ← agreed- those stick on wood grain kits are cheesy as hell, and the engine cover is pretty lame. I'm not that fond of the wheels either. I'll bet that car has has a few beatings in it's time. ;)
  6. check this out http://www.clublexus.com/forums/showthread...ighlight=sensor
  7. was it this one? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...4552979977&rd=1
  8. what happened is that they did not support the abs sensors when the suspension was apart and it probably stretched and broke the wires for one or both of the sensors. search and you'll see...
  9. actually, the filter cost about $30 at dealer. this is a great place to get oem stuff Darrel Diller Internet Division Manager Sewell Lexus of Dallas www.lexus-parts.com 6421 Lemmon Avenue Dallas, TX 75209 (866) 770-3099 ext: 2826 (214) 353-2826 (214) 350-5398 Fax ddiller@sewell.com
  10. I'll bet it's your new plugs. I've heard of the same thing happening when oem iridium plugs aren't used. I would first put oem ngk or nd plugs in and see what happens.
  11. Nutster_98 glad you found your prob. how did you finally determine it was an injector?
  12. I also run mobil 89 in the es. 93 once in a while if I'm feelin generous :D the 430 gets mobil 93 everytime.
  13. are you serious? you paid $5400 for seat heaters!!!!! you got ripped bigtime. did they give you brand new seats? what happened to old ones? pls tell me they didn't keep your perfectly good seats AND charge you $5400. I would call Lexus corporate and demand a refund.
  14. yes, unless u get hubcentric rims.
  15. is it the original battery? my 01GS430 battery died about a month ago, it was the original. lucky for me, it died one week before my warranty ran out, so I got a new oem(interstate) battery for free.
  16. GS430X6 - good choice. what tires do you have that are noisy? btw-where in FL are you?
  17. nice. is that the same PIAA that makes light bulbs?
  18. It should be on the drivers side where the block bolts up to the tranny(down low). With the cost of all the parts it's cheaper just to buy a new starter starter ← I don't know how different the starters are, but my es was just click sometimes when you turn key, I replaced solenoid contacts and sanded plunger, worked like a champ. $15 for the contacts from toyota. http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/index...showtopic=19266 http://www.off-road.com/toyota/tech/starter/
  19. like he said, there is nothing you can do about drls. however, you can change the small parking light wedge bulb in the drls housing. that light comes on when the headlights are on. I put Polarg M4s in mine. I also put Piaa Ion bulbs in my clear side markers to match fogs. http://www.eautoworks.com http://www.xtremewhite.com http://www.autodynamic.com/ before after this is what it looks like with parking lights on
  20. post a pic so we can tell if it's fixable
  21. thanks-I've allready changed dogbone myself(twice). I'm guessing both fronts and maybe trans mount are hurt, Your mechanic only charges $120 to replace all mounts?
  22. How much should I expect to pay for labor for replacing motor mounts & rear valve cover gasket on my 1995 ES 300? thanks
  23. they look like stock color HIDs to me. Looks good, was it all plug and play? if you don't mind, how much$? I would love to switch my 95 ES to HIDs, stocks are weak....
