Harbison

Exhaustgases, I'm not sure of the cause. It was basically a one owner car bought by a lady realtor. She put almost all of the miles on it and gave it to her housekeeper who I bought it from. All maintenance done by Toyota dealer. I don't think it was from hard driving. Oil had been recently changed.

My LS threw a main bearing. Camshaft is fine and I could replace bearings but at 250,000 miles I wondered if I should look for lower mileage engine/transmission. The local junkyard has 98 GS400 which prompted post. Are 98-00 only years I should look for? Thanks

Can I replace the engine and transmission in my 1998 LS400 with an engine and transmission from a 1998 GS400?

Need help finding rod and main bearings for 98 LS 400. Standard size.

Paul,

Tell me more about the one-day access to Toyota's database.

Thanks,

Richard

How do you know what to click on the Russian Lexus page?

I just bought a 1998 Lexus LS400 and I'm looking for a repair manual. Has anyone used one of the PDF downloadable manuals available? I found the Chilton one that you subsribe to as well as a couple of others but wanted to hear from some experienced owners.
