i think it might be time for ,me to do this job b/c i getthat little clunk over small bumps also im going to jack the car up and check all the suspension parts
thanks for the help guys i figured i would have to go to the dealer. SK ive broke a couple of the studs while tightening the lugs which is my fault b/c i have a torquewrench but i try not to use it for all bolts(stupid i know)so i thought i would just change them all.its pretty easy all you have to do is bang them out with a hammer then bang the new one in a little and use the lug nut to bring it all thevway through. ive done this already but then i broke some more studs. i have to learn not to overtighten :chairshot:
if you are not having any problems i would listen to blake and just leave it, but if you do it make sure you run your gas tank almost empty.be prepared to get some gas in your face it was pretty easy it just took me a long time getting the new filter o with gas dripping in my eyes
Hello:
Do you know at which mileage are they supposed to be changed, in accordance with the Lexus manuals?
there is really no set mileage fr this to be done, but if you have alot of miles on the car already i suggest you do it
i got a question myself for both of you i just recieved my crossdrilled/slotted rotors i ordered off ebay but they dont come with the 2 screws that hold the rotor onto the steering knuckle. the problem is the ones that are on the car now are partially stripped so i want to get new screws and wheel studs for all the wheels. i know i can get studs from any auto store, but what about those little screws? what size are they?
those things are just on there real tight i broke a ratchet one tie trying to get those bolts off, finally i hit it with some wd-40 and a breaker bar and loosened it on the first try
i know your in the ls forum but what kind of car do you have?if it says pad wear then you have to replace the ijndicator located btw the break pads, but if the brake warning light is on that means the pressure in the break system is low
i dont think there is a recomended interval to change the filter and everyone says that these filters are some of the best. i just changed mine at 120k and mines still looked good
