Get new struts on ebay for $55, install in 5 minutes

Our 02 SC430 gets tons of compliments routinely, although the last one came after the guy found out it wasn't the new IS convertible

I got mine from the dealer for $250 each and he gave me $50 each trade-in on my pie pans

Wow, thanks for the info

My 02 TPMS light is on, but all four tires have good air pressure. The manual says that the most likely cause for the light is a low battery on one of the TPMS modules. Is there any way to determine which tire needs a battery without breaking down the tire from the wheel?

Believe it or not, your local Lexus dealer may have some nice wheels for you. I have a 02 SC430 and recently bought the G-Spiders (a Lexus accessory) for mine. Very nice looking. What did they cost you? They initially wanted $350 each, but I ended up getting them mounted with trade-in of my old wheels for $1250. Fully warrantied by Lexus. I did look at a lot of nice after market wheels, but found the staff at the local tire stores completely lacking of the fitment knowledge to allow me to make a good decison. My local Lexus service manager is also a memeber of this forum which may have influenced my decison. somewhat

Like Soleman, I bought a set on eBay for $55 last week and it took less than 10 minutes to install them on my 02 SC430. Yes, I did it myself and my wife claims I'm not "handy"...... Good Luck!

Thanks. Dealer ran all the computer checks and came up with "isolated misfire". All sensors checked out asd did the battery. They say that I most likely got some bad gas.....not what you want to hear since you can't prove it to easily. Anyway, they put some formula 44 in it, ran it for a couple of days....no repeat of the incident.

Just purchased the Lexus G-Spider wheels for my 02 SC430, they look awesome.......the factory wheels just didn't cut it. Something I found out in the process though, ask your dealer if they have any "take-offs"......wheels taken off new cars when the owner wants to go straight to an upgrade; my dealer had about 20 wheels ranging from the 06 model to the O2 models.

:cries: While driving my 02 SC 430 yesterday, my VSC light, VSC Off light and Engine Check light all came on at the same time. No out of the ordinary driving conditions at the time. Troubleshooting with the owners manual just says see dealer.....and I will, but just wondering if anyone has had this experience so I can know what I'm in for.....cost wise. Thanks

me too!

Thanks, I saw them. I'm looking for the ones that match the alloy. Will check the dealer. Thanks again

Thanks!
