  1. thats interesting. does anyone have anything else to add?
  2. i was just at pep boys going over the engine oil section and came across the lucas oil stabilizer. i have seen the little demo crank and gear by the cash register. i decided to give it a try on my 96 ls400. so far, it seems ok. the car runs very smooth, but not sure if it was just cause i just changed the oil. have you guys heard anything about it?
  3. sup guys, i was looking into these cd/mp3 RF cd changers and noticed that they dont need to be installed since they go off the radio waves. but im worried that it maybe too staticy or the quality wont be that great. from my research, it seems that only sony and jvc have the RF cd/mp3 changers. i want to get one for my 96 ls400. since its not compatible with ipod connectors and i dont want to get anything after market put in. thanks guys
  4. i have just under 113,000 miles. i need to get the car serviced. just wondering what i should get done. i figure, timing belt and water pump i need to change out my power steering high pressure hose which has been leaking. so i think my alternator might need to be changed also. change out engine, transmission and differential oil spark plug? spark wires? new tires distributor? distributor cap? coolant flush anything else?
  5. those were the first bulbs i changed out. the thing that gets me bad is that when i went to get my tint done 3 months ago, i noticed that they broke the tabs that hold down the plastic globe. so i had to improvise with metal. thanks for the response.
  6. hey guys, because of the holiday weekend, i havent been able to double check all the harnesses. for the meantime, i got GE bulbs. they look the same. they are not long lasting bulbs. ill keep you guys posted.
  7. thanks for the response. ill try it and repost the conclusion
  8. ok, its been a while since the warning rear light has been on. so today, i finally read sat down again and read the manual more carefully. this is what it says in full. "if this light comes on when the headlight switch is turned on (at the first or second clickstop), it indicates that one or more of the tail lights are burned out. if it comes on when the brake pedal is depressed, one or more lights are burned out. have defective bulbs replaced as soon as possible." the warning light came on when i turned the lights on. so i replaced the bulbs that looked burnt out (blackish marks). when i did that, the warning light would no longer come on once i turned on the lights. it only came on when i pressed in the brakes. so i went back to walmart and bought new ge bulbs for all the brake lights. i replaced all of them including the one in the back dash. in addition, i replaced the little light in the rear. the only ones i didnt change was the reverse and turn signals. the warning light still comes on when depressed. please help me! thank you so much.
  9. wwest, thanks for the quick response. i guess ill go and replace the other brake lights since i have already replaced the high interior brake bulbs.
  10. i tried the parking brake, it didnt do anything. and there seems to be enough fluid in the brake fluid container
  11. im going to try what everyone wrote. such a huge response. but in the meantime, just so we are on the same page, here is what i am talking about. i have a 1996 LS400
  12. i have a '96 for sale. email me at choiboyogg@yahoo.com. i am in southern california.
  13. i disconnected the battery for 20 mins and when i got back in the car, and started it up, as soon i pressed the brake, the warning light came back on!!!! im cursed, it wont shut off! i guess for now, ill have to replace all the bulbs..... unless someone else has a better idea....???
  14. dcfish, thank you so much! ill try it. are there any links to how to do that?
  15. ok, so my brake light warning light has been on forever. i noticed that one of my interior brake lights was out so i replaced it. but to no avail. then i noticed that the reverse light was out. so i replaced that. but still no luck. so i took new bulb and switched them out with each light to see if i could isolate the "weak" or "dying" bulb. but nothing! that damn warning light is killing me! please help!!!
  16. army of one, i have one for sale, email me and check out the pics at www.andrewmanley.com/LS my email is choiboyogg@yahoo.com i am based out of southern california however
  17. sup guys, i have already sold two cars this year in california. a 88 mitsubishi starion and a 00 civic si. now i need to sell my LS400. do you know the max amount of cars a private party can sell before they are considered a dealer? i dont want to get stiffed with large penalties. thanks.
  18. well it was really late last night so i didnt check but curt, it seems to be just that. i called lexus to get a bottle of power steering fluid but they dont stock them. they said just regular ATF. what does that mean?
  19. just today, i noticed that my ls makes a noise and a slight vibration when i turn right and slightly when i turn left. any ideas?
  20. i am very familiar with photoshop. heres the deal, changing the colors/hue on an image is very simple. but going from a mid tonal range to a white or black extreme, thats very hard and takes time. if you find someone who can do it, you got lucky.
  21. ill be picking up a 2000-2003 honda s2000. i think it will be the perfect companion car for the ls400. i have my work car and i have my fun car!
