Yes check the articles in the pinned threads above the forum. The owner's manual is there. Resetting the oil change light is in there under "do it yourself maintenance".

The price for the intake alone from Sewell is around $390 isn't it?

Welcome. :D

On the old type it could mess up the power steering pump as it is still trying to turn but is at the end of the steering travel and it can't. With the electric power steering I figure the motor is still trying to move the steering gear, hence the noise, and this could burn out the motor or possibly wear or damage the gears. Anytime a system like that is forced to try to work against the stop and it starts making noises, it's not good for the system. If you're at full lock just for an instant or so it's probably ok. Holding it there for a longer time is where there would be a problem. If you can turn to lock and then just back off a little bit it's better if you can still make the turn.

Why not?

Check the little air hose and temperature sensor that are behind the dash near your right knee. If these aren't connected the A/C won't work and will only blow hot air. The hose is behind the small round vent in the lower part of the dash.

I'd like to find an old lady with only 8,800 miles on her.

This may or may not apply but you shouldn't turn the wheel all the way to the lock and hold it there. The power steering system will protest.

I'm pretty sure they'll figure something out when thousands of transmissions begin failing.

MPG per tank resets when you fill up. The other MPG readout is since the last reset. I've got 22.1 MPG on mine for the last 10,000 miles.

obviously my question was dealer or the other place. That depends on two things. One is what your insurance will pay and the other is what kind of glass are you getting from the other place. Is it genuine Lexus stuff?

I think he's saying that there are other factors which reduce your winter mileage so your summer mileage with A/C on might be about the same as your winter mileage with A/C off. What you're looking at is the anytime mileage difference between running A/C on and A/C off under similar ambient conditions. I expect in Arizona it's similar to here in Alabama. The question is moot because in the summer nobody is going to drive around with the A/C off. It's just too hot. However, in a rather powerful car I don't think the mileage difference is going to be very big, as it might be with a smaller, less powerful engine. As long as there's plenty of power to move the car, the it's not really going to notice the little extra that the A/C uses. I leave my system in automatic year round and it runs when it needs to and doesn't when it doesn't need to. Same goes for the air recirculating. While some people say it's easier to keep the car cool on recirc, you're really breathing some pretty stale air after while. The only times you need recirc is when initially cooling the cabin and/or when there smoke or dirty air outside that you don't want to enter the car. I find that the auto selection pretty well takes care of that for you.

Get it fixed grasshopper.

That's spamming. I put it here because that's where it belongs. If you want something in all the forums go through management.

white... the "don't use in the heated housing blah blah blah" is a total CYA move...standard fare for after-market parts...like the "for off-road use only" statements....i would love see the donkey that puts a set of headers on his/her IS and takes it off-road.... Uh, race track is off road.

So, if you have your AC on and have it set for a lower temperature, the AC pump will be work more, then you will burn more fuel than if you have the AC set for a higher temperature, does that sound right? :D I think so. The more the compressor runs, the more power it's going to use. At some point, if the weather is hot enough, the compressor will run 100% and still not be able to bring the temp down to say 70 degrees F. As I understand it, the A/C can only bring the vent temperature down X number of degrees below ambient.

I don't think anyone would try to convince you of that. Of course the A/C compressor takes some power from the engine to run it. In cars with little low powered engines you can really notice the power loss when the A/C kicks in. Some the loss is offset by better aerodynamics driving at speed with the windows up, but that's a whole nuther argument. ;)

Get another set of connectors and crimp them on.

I might have thought about it if you hadn't spammed the other 9 posts that I had to hunt down and delete. :(

I don't think anyone is going to lower the price below their cost no matter what.

The stock bulbs are 4300K. I think it's 35 watts.

What?
