Miles

Ehhh, I wouldn't say mine is any more noticable on the ES than it was on his 98 LS or his 04 LS. I think there are just a lot more ES's and RX's and thats why it looks like there are more problems. One negative for the ES in this department is that it doesn't have an ECT PWR mode to the transmission, in the LS this reduces the lag considerably.

The part that amazes me is this issue took so long for Toyota to address. Our dealer told us this was their number one complaint. This hesitation problem hasn't soured repeat business?

I purchased my LS430 90 miles away from the nearest dealer to save 5k. It has been serviced by the nearest dealer ever since with no problems. I get fast, courteous, and good service.

I have never found that to be a problem any where. They make their money on service and usually are very eager to take the business.

I don't think i have ever seen Lexus mudflaps even from Japan the home of all car toys.

It would have to be aftermarket.

Ok Thanks we where wondering about the Mud flaps. Now our decission is to either select the chrome wheels offered by Lexus or buy after market. They are offering the wheels at 1200 for the set a swap of the alloy wheels.

My wife and I pick up our ES330 from the Dealer on Wednesday. She would like mud flaps. I have noticed that all the pics etc I see usually don't have mud flaps on the auto? Do any of you run mud flaps on your car if so are the dealer installed or after market?
