  1. i have to add myself to the bandwagon on this one. I dont think lexus is liable for anything cause it would just be like any other accident. Did you ask them what is taking them so long for them to get an engine? perhaps its your insurance company that needs to send out an evaluator/someone who can approve the replacement. Loaner cars are usually given out during services and when there is something wrong with the car that is their fault. Since your not paying lexux of lobock or w/e its called directly, they dont need to give you !Removed!.
  2. follow what it says on the inside part of your front driver door sticker. It should read around 32-35 psi
  3. are you sure you cant just use your nail to scrape it off like dried glue? if not then nail polish remover or that acetone stuff is your only choice. Just dilute it in a cup with more water than nail polish remover and then slowly use a Qtip to kinda gently wipe against it. These hard plastics are a lot more tough then you think.
  4. two things: one) on the west coast where i am, it was foggy...lol...all day. what i would do for some sunshine two) i thought of another reason. The pump from the station will be doing the...um...pumping ;)
  5. well "on" doesnt actually mean ON all the time. Its sensored, so that when it senses light from the back and not from the front, it will dim the mirrors. Its automatic. I leave mine on ON and i dont see any blue/green during the day.
  6. lol...faster doesnt necessarily mean 0-60 times. Those diesels have a lot of torque which is what you need when accelerating at certain speeds. but i do think hes being sarcastic
  7. its in the trunk. you have to remove the trunk mat, then open the rear portion of it (behind the two storange bins). On the right hand side you will notice a cover that can be taken off, and then you will see a CD slot. best to be done in a well lit area.
  8. depends where you are. It is possible, but you might have to special order it. that takes up to 3 months though
  9. let me first address the parts/service area. It will be noticable cheaper at a toyota dealership, for practically the same parts since the two brands use the same engine components etc. However, you will not get loaner cars at a toyota dealership, nor will you get that famous lexus service. If those things arent important to you, then you could still bring your lexus into a toyota dealership and have it serviced there instead. Anything goes since the two brands are interchangable. I would rule out the LS and the GS seeing how they would probably be more "stripped" then an ES or Avalon in that price range. Also, as i was point out to earlier this year, the ES is actually larger than the GS, so seeing how you need all 5 seats. LS- an LS in the mid $25K might not be in the best of condition. this would be the old styling and keep in mind (maybe im just nit picking), the 2002-3s did not have the refresh which included LED tail lights etc. GS- i never like the old generation dash nor exterior, but perhaps you do. ALso this would be the old styling and it seems pretty outdated if you ask me. ES- an ES330 shouldnt run you more than 26K and it would be fairly new. that styling is a little more sleek than the equivalent year of a GS. The car is bigger as well, and it has 230 hp i think Avalon- I would probably choose this car, though it would probably be ranked next to the ES. Im one to want kinda a "bling" car with the lexus name on it, but if you dont care, the Avalon would be the best bang for the buck. Keep searching around, and dont rush into it. Also keep in mind goodies like the Nav are the same as the ones found on a lexus. the interface is the same.
  10. not really. Your best bet is just to not lean the door against anything when coming out or going into the car. perhaps you could use those plastic strips they have for the door edges?
  11. lol...cause its weird to show so much care and love to a "he" or "she" that is an opposite s*x car. I however, do not refer to my cars has having a gender. lol
  12. and you wonder why i thought you were one of us [a guy] when you first came on :P
  13. well, most likely it will be in august/september. Probably will get some of the small touches from the RX350, like the chrome door handles. If i were you, i would wait for an '09 if possible. if you cant wait a year and a half, get the '08. Getting a later model means a better resale value and also all the bugs should be gone. good luck.
  14. dens, lol i guess high school never ends for you. you must be excited about college. rick, hope its nothing serious...i think ill pay for someone to fix my house, im not the handy type of guy. there are a lot of things i want to do. the previous owner didnt put any crown molding and such. just small details. rya, sounds like you got a lot on your plate. 4 cats?
  15. A lot of people, including myself havent been on this site very much lately. Just wondering what were all doing, being summer and all. ive been doing some light construction at my house, and for the first time in my life, i received some electric shock 10 minutes ago after accidentally touching a qire with a screw driver...didnt know the electricity was still on either. lol. But yeah i think im still good, as im still here typing. :whistles: so whats up?
  16. the ones in the Chinese mountains looks cool, ive seen that before...in pictures. as for the mud one, id love to test out my awd RX on that...lol
  17. if the stock rims came with the graphite polish, then those would be the winner
  18. The Lexus website has been updated to include the LS Hybrid. Just thought id share.
  19. they are suppose to be better than any other low and high beam. The crystal around the lens is suppose to make it project farther. not sure about the yellowness though
  20. ...because it didnt really work out for lexus like it did for GM with onstar. Nobody really wanted to pay monthly for a service that they would rarely used. So far, i think its only on the LS, but i think a come back might be soon.
  21. eh...those cars are technically in a different league as seen from their price tags and horsepower ratings. lol
