I kind of miss some of the Old RX members postings. I particularily enjoyed cduluk, as he was the master of modifications on the RX.

07 Gs450h "check Hybrid System" failed *need HELP!"
lenore replied to Andy_N's topic in 06 - 12 Lexus GS300 / GS350 / GS460
Is your car throwing any codes? Also does is sound like the Gas engine is stuttering and then dies? Could be a dirty throttle body or bad throttle body sensor....I know it is a hybrid by the way, I have an RX400h.- 3 replies

OH yea, been dealing with that for 37 years. I have completely gutted this house since Oct 2017. (We downsized and went one story) so remodeling this older home is a must. At same time still maintaining the Lexus RX400h, Ford F150, and new to stable a Toyota Solara convertible.

What brand spark plugs and how much for labor?
lenore replied to babyduke's topic in 07 - 12 Lexus ES350
Avoid Bosch plugs by all means...They are garbage. NGK or Denso iridium are great and last an easy 120k miles. My wife has 230k miles on hers.... -
Yup still here, but crazy busy remodeling my house.....

Time to trade in the 400h?
lenore replied to katzjamr's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
I would keep the RX400h and drive until it dies. Money in the pocket is far smarter.... -
Hybrid battery failed - 2007 Gs450H with 107,000
lenore replied to rhwimmers1's topic in 06 - 12 Lexus GS300 / GS350 / GS460
Thankyou for posting, that sounds like a great resolution, good price, and great warranty. -
That is weird, the pin bent is from the wheel hub hitting it. Is the back plate that the shoes rest on bent outward? you might want to compare to the other side of the car axle hub.

Personally if you like the car, go to that independent and have them check the system and rebuild whatever cell is bad. Lot cheaper than a new car. -

200.000 mile club, anyone else there yet?
lenore replied to jabowsi's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
Well I am at 228k miles on my 2008 RX400h. I have developed an intermittent vibration which appears to be related to the ice coming on or off....any thoughts.? -

2003 lexus es300 starter cost
lenore replied to Carlos Aguilar's topic in 92 - 06 Lexus ES250/300/330
Why not just replace the starter contacts. Cheap from amazon and takes about 30 minutes. Any mechanic could do this... http://www.nationsautoelectric.com/instructions.html see this for explanation.. I have done this on two different starters with success in fixing your intermittent starting. -
Note the dealer will be way more expensive.

Call a locksmith that can cut the master from your Vin#. They can also program the electronics. I know here locally I had to do that on my Toyota Solara, cost me about $150

Which Tire Brand and Size to buy and from which store ?
lenore replied to Trango's topic in 07 - 12 Lexus ES350
I have MIcheliin Defenders on my RX400h and my Ford F150 truck, best tire I have ever used. -
One of your driven devices is freezing up. ie the alternator, power steering pump, air conditioning compressor, or one of the idlers. Before putting belt on spin each to make sure they are free. I would suspect the air conditioning compressor when energized is the culprit.

lenore replied to Debra M's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
Unfortunately all gas in California has winter blend. -

lenore replied to Debra M's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
I would try an ISC reset, do a search for the procedure on this site. Remember our winter gas is not ideal in CA and also the engine comes on more during the colder season. -

I am curious, did your mechanic use Type WS Toyota transmission fluid.? I would make another call, and give them supporting documentation of your service record for the transmission.

2004 RX330 lower control arm bushings
lenore replied to Pupeluv's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
Yea pretty much you do not have to pull engine. just motor mounts and a little engine lifting with a floor jack. Pretty much a rip off at $2600
