SGT

I don't feel like spending $150 for the 10K oil change, even with tire rotation and a cookie... I trust my Firestone neighborhood shop, but Firestone can do it for models earlier than 2006, but not mine.

I've seen the procedure for other model years (odometer on, engine off, press key, turn on, hold for 7 seconds, etc.), but it doesn't seem to work for the 2006. The procedure, according to the manual, works for the OIL MAINT RESET warning, but this requires to reset the OIL MAINT RQD first, and that procedure is not listed.

Can someone help?

Thanks,

George

I'm using the Vaistech SLI in my 3GS and it works and sounds great. Definitely worth the money.

I like the yellow fogs with the xenon headlights. It makes the "light blue tint" more noticeable.

Definitely yellow.

If the GS430 came in all wheel drive I would cancel the Cayenne I have on order.

The GS350 AWD is coming out next year and it will have over 300hp.

Hi.

Do they still have the yellow fog lamps on the new GS?

Thank you.

No, they're white but yellow would be cool.

Can someone in NY do this for me?

OK, I'm new to run flats, and also my GS300, so here's my question.  Does the information display tell you WHICH tire is low, or just that there's a fault and you need to go out and inspect all four tires?  Thanks for your reply.

All it will tell you is that one of the tires is experiencing low pressure so you'll have to go out and look.

So ironic, i just got my 2006 GS and was talking to my friend whose got a 530 BMW and I was making fun of the run flat tires he has, it turns out that my car has the same tires :whistles:

...well am not bothered, but i do have a quesiton, if the tire hits a nail, and is puncutred, whats the max speed i could run on it without harming it and can it be fixed in the same way i use to fix my regular tires (place a glued ribber in the hole, pump and ride)?

At least i have a spare tire  :D my friend doesn't so my ods are 20% his are 25% to having to change a tire if anythings goes kaboooom

You can drive up to 55mph for 100 miles before having to replace the tires. As for repair, I'm not sure but you may have to get a new tire.

does anyone know where or how i can upload a video clip?    i cant figure it out and its *BLEEP*ing me off because this video is a pretty neat trick to do

Email the clip to me at foo_tek82@yahoo.com and I'll host it for you.

here's how to bypass the Navi-Input Lock. Without doing any Mod's to your car.

Your video is still messed up. :chairshot: B)

im having trouble uploading this video but do you knkow if that              plug would work on a car that has had the DVD modification performed on it?

I have no idea, but you can always email them to find out. If you do, let us know!

here's how to bypass the Navi-Input Lock.

This is only temporary though, and you'll have to do it again whenever you shut off the car. The above solution is permanent as long as you have that unit plugged in. Then again, some people might not mind doing that each time and save themselves $99. :D

Thanks for clarifying, 06gs430. There's actually a "nav kit" which will allow you to override the navi which is selling for $99. It's also removable as well, and bypasses the "I Agree" disclaimer. Although this is for the Prius navi system, it should work on the GS as well since it's the same unit. I'm not 100% sure, but here's the link in case anyone is interested.

Ok, so just to be clear, does this also allow you to input directions to the navi while the vehicle is in motion? Thanks.

Nice, glad to hear that everything worked out for you. Just out of curiosity, was the mod working correctly the entire time?

Sorry to hear that. Did you double-check everything just to make sure? If so, maybe blue06gs can help you figure out what went wrong.

Good luck, let us know the results.

Is there anyone that can do this in the NY/NJ area?

Please share how much you were able to get your '06 GS300 AWD for. Also, where did you buy it from and what options did you get?

I'm looking for a set of '06 GS430 18" wheels. Please let me know if you want to get rid of them or know of a place where I can get them from, besides lexus-parts.com or Ebay.

No, not yet because I figured someone here would know.

Thanks, anyone know what the offset is?

Does anyone know what the bolt pattern and offset is for the stock 17" wheels on the GS300 AWD?

Which dealer?

I have a great saleswoman in Annapolis I can refer you to who might be more interested in helping you. That salesman is probably hoping you'll spring for a GS430. I've sent a couple LOC members her way.

Do they lower the car? No.

Thanks for letting me know, but the dealer I was referring to is Rallye Lexus of NY. Is there anywhere else that I can get the GS430 wheels from for a reasonable price?

Just wondering, when going from the stock 17" wheels to any of the optional factory 18" wheels, does the dealer lower the car? I'm planning to get the GS300 AWD and would like the dealer to swap the stock 17's for the GS430 5-spoke 18's but the one dealer I contacted about this said it would cost an estimated $3k-$4k to do that! That's just ridiculous. I might as well just get them on lexus-parts.com.

So does the dealer lower the car when going from 17's to 18's?
