Thanks. I think I'll go with the clears. B)

Yes I think I'll clean the throttle body once the weather is nice out there. I think lexls.com has great directions on how to do that. It's an excellent site for a lot of DIY.

I gave away my car to my sister couple of years ago. To avoid the hastle of filling out form for giving it as a gift and also giving MVA the proof, I simply sold the car for $1 and I also had a notorized bill of sale to go with it. MVA did not give her any problems and charged her tax on a $1 which came to I think 5 cents.

I watched a tail end of the show where the guy was spraying some cleaner in the hose that attaches to air filter. I'm not sure what that was, but I think he said it was carborator cleaner. Is that safe to spray and does it help in cleaning up clogs if there are any inside the hose?

In your opinion would clear bumper lights look good on a 94 Silver LS? I don't want to order it and end up regretting if it doesn't look good.

I have a 94 LS with ~230k miles and the timing belt hasn't been replaced yet. I guess I'm pushing my luck, but I do need to replace it soon.

You're right. Best way is to be able to do it yourself. I might just order brake pads online and try replacing them myself. Shouldn't be too tough.

I just thought that there might be a few people who are not registered at this site and therefore cannot reply. You guys can email me at pathwary@hotmail.com

Thanks silvermate! I'll go through all of them to look for parts i need.

Hello. I bumped into this site as I was doing research on the Internet to find solutions to problems I'm having. First off, its an excellent site and I think I'm gonna get hooked on this real fast. OK, now about my problem. I have a 94 LS400 B) . I've had it since 96 and have managed to put in 220k miles on it. It looks and runs great. I started to notice that it makes some funny sounds when it hits pot holes and I suspected that there might be something wrong with the suspension. So I took it to the dealer to have them look at it and they came up with an exhaustive list of things it needs with outragious price quote :o . Basically it needs the following: 1. Front brake pads 2. Front strut bar bushings 3. Upper lateral arm 4. Ball joints cracked 5. Rear bearing Infields I'm a car enthusiast and can do little bit of work such as replace air filter :) , but I don't think I'll be able to do any of the work they recommended myself. Are there any online places where I can get cheaper parts? Also, if anyone's from Maryland, Washington DC or Northern Virginia area...do you know of any shops that are good at working with lexus? Otherwise I'll just go to the local shops in my area and see what estimate they will give. I know that owning a lexus means you pay the price to maintain it...but I can't justify paying for repairs that are coming out to be more than price of the car...so if you can guide me in this matter, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
