If you have NAVI U, it will play DVD discs. Here's the owner's manual section on the NAVI U Audio Video System. http://auth.owners.lexus.com/lexusowners/a...6is2535/aud.pdf

I do, however, know that I've been running K&N and the similar TRD filters in cars for over 10 years now and never ever had oil come off the filter and contaminate anything, or any other air filter related problems. It doesn't hurt a thing in normal operation and it's there when you want it at WOT. So why not put one on? It is user preference after all.

This is as close as I expect you're going to get.

Don't listen to the alarmist. Go ahead and get the K&N. Properly maintained, it won't give you any problems.

Radiation fog usually only occurs in high pressure, low wind areas and you are right it is caused by the cooling of the ground which causes it to appear like its on the ground but its still not. Nice try though. And as for the rest at water vapors dewpoint droplets form INSIDE the vapor not out of the vapor hence the water droplets surrounded by water vapor or FOG is the GASEOUS form of water. You must understand that the water droplets inside the vapor are what allow u to see this gaseous form. Without the vapor u would have no droplets and no fog so stop taping bill nye the science guy and trying to prove me wrong. Lets find a new topic here. ← You can't see water vapor. You still don't see the gaseous form of water, you see the condensed droplets, which may be an artifact, but are not the actual gas itself. Gas is gas, droplets is droplets. There's just no bul*BLEEP*ting your way around that. If fog is a gas, then you don't need fog lights. Next thing you know, you'll be trying to tell us that wood smoke is a gas. This thread is moot. ← bartkat, I didn't know that you worked in a burger stand??? And on that note , What is wrong with flipping burgers? I hope that wasn'y said to be demeaning. Now the topic is changed, Highjacked Blah Blah back forth, Blah Blah back forth, etc...:wacko: ← i agree enough is enough ← Took long enough to figure that out. :D Now I guess it's back to studying fauna and flora. Then go down to the parts store and ask for a set of "water vapor lights".

That just sounds so poetic. :D :D

You have modified your definiton several times now, but you continue to be incorrect. Fog is still not a gas.

The Free Mod Series - Part 1: Faster Shifting
bartkat replied to Toysrme's topic in 92 - 06 Lexus ES250/300/330
I would expect the "top aircraft mechanics" responsible for maintaining Air Force One (the President's 747) follow factory recommended preventive maintenance service procedures using factory recommended parts, fluids and filters. Ditto in regard to the "top aircraft mechanics" responsible for maintaining fleets of passenger jets ← You might be surprised how many of the modifications came originally from the guys in the shop. But again you missed the point. The mecanics had no pilot experience. Being a pilot had nothing to do with being a mechanic. But then maybe you avoid the point on purpose, just as a diversion. If the Toyota/Lexus engineers did a perfect job on every model, then I don't think there would ever be a TSB. In that case if there is a TSB, and if the engineering is perfect, then any TSB should be totally ignored, right? -

Sorry, your post resembles a teenager having a tantrum more than anything else. And you can brag all you want about the massive experience you've had in your 6 years of driving, but it's laughable compared to the experience and skills of the people who designed and built the car - and they happen to disagree with you. ← There you go again, equating driving esperience to mechanic abilities. Most of the top aircraft mechanics I ever met, never flew a B52, but they sure could keep em flying. -

I think it would be incumbent upon you to document (prove) any of these cases of problems/damage due to any of these mods being done as instructed. Therefore I am now asking you for that documentation. After all, we are adults here and any reasonable person would understand what risks, if any might be involved, and any reasonable person would also understand his own skill level and any limitations he might have in doing such mods. ← You've got it completely backwards. The person suggesting that someone should violate their warranty and implement some changes that the factory doesn't approve is the one who has the burden of proof to show that their change won't hurt anything. Leaving it alone will certainly not hurt anything - as shown by the number of Lexus vehicles which go past 200 K miles without problems. So where's the proof that your modification won't hurt anything - particularly in light of the fact that people who have made these changes have had problems long before they would have in the normal course of things. ← If you make claims, pro or con, the need to be backed up. I haven't seen that done here. Even first hand experience might be acceptable, but that's not been cited here either. Until proof is offered, those claims must remain suspect. It's only logical. Warranty? I wasn't aware there were any '93 models out there still in warranty. If there are, please point them out and I'll go buy one. :D -

She doesn't claim to know all about cars, either ;) The point here if you claim to know everything there is to know about cars, you gotta have experience to back it up with Not saying that the person in question is, in fact, ill-qualified for making the kinds of claims he does, but it is a very good point that having loads of experience works in his/her favor. Why do you think when you looking for a job, everyone asks for experience? ;) It's common sense, dude ← Point is, driving experience does not equate to car mechanical, etc. knowledge. I believe the post to which I replied only referred to years of driving experience. -
Dew point, yeah, that's it. Thanks Turbo.

FYI:H2O naturally comes in all three states of matter---Solid, liquid and of course Gas. Water takes many forms. The solid state of water is known as ice; the gaseous state is known as water vapor (or steam). Water has many other forms, such as vitreous ice, a noncrystalline (glassy), solid state of water. Check out this site to find out your wrong: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_%28molecule%29 ← Did you mean to say "you're"? Fog is condensed droplets of water, suspended in air. Very similar to a cloud only at ground level. You cannot see vapor, only the condensate. Your quote mentions absolutely nothing about fog, BTW. Now, back to topic. ← Once again u are wrong fog is not condensed water droplets. The molecules are actually more spread out in water's gaseous state or fog ,clouds whatever u want to call it. You are right u can not see water vapor but clouds and fog are made up of about 80% water vapor which in turn is causing the water droplets iside the vapor due to temperature change in the atmosphere. These droplets reflect light which is the only reason you can see fog or water vapor. Keep studying. You were almost right ← Wrong again, Einstein. Water droplets are not a gas. Reading your genius posts is a gas though.

My sister has been driving for over 50 years and she doesn't know diddley about working on a car. -
yeah it aint bad, free housing, food, medical, dental, vision and everything else. plus a $20,000 bonus. which i just got half of :) whats not to like? ← Cool. I remember living in WWII barracks that were condemned 10 years before we moved in. :D
