  1. Hey I really need advice on this one. 

    I suspect I have a serious psycho neighbor, who not only dinged my car on purpose but is now messing with my tires... <_<

    I've had them filled to 40 lbs each but two days later, they are at 35.  Is this normal or could there be a leak in all of them ( I would think if the same tool was used to puncture a small hole in each of them).  Help!

    Oh, one more thing--the tire pressure sensor light keeps coming on and off. After finding a nail in the tire, I repaired the hole, then filled them all to 40. Could this sensor be messed up from removal of the one tire for repair, or is it unlikely?

    One mechanic said the sensor wiring could have been messed up.

  2. Did you set the air persure when the tires are hot or cold.  If you drove on them and then put the air in (hot), and checked it the next day cold... Bingo, could account for the 5lbs.

    Sorry about the crazy person.  Know what it like.  I have had two of them in the past.  One finaly called the cops on me, then whent off on the cop and went to jail.  The other set her place on fire when she empted her hot BBQ into her plastic trash can.  Her landlord then tosed her out of the place.

    Now I live in a small town with great folks all around... But no lexus dealers around for 100 miles.....  Small price to pay for no crazy folks...

    Hmmm.

    Thx I'll test and retest while hot and cold. You had 2 of em? Sounds like they got what they deserved :chairshot:

    I hate, I mean HATE jealous people who try to destroy your things because they're miserable :censored: who can't get any joy otherwise. :cries: Poor fools, let it come back to them in a roundabout way :P

  4. My SC300 came with chrome rims that had chrome finished plastic center caps (hub caps). I as well need one replacement cap too. Thanks.

    Yes this is what I meant, chrome finished center caps. I already switched to chrome rims but the guy who sold it wanted to include what looked to me like very cheesy knock off caps with a fake Lexus logo. My caps are the original aluminum dealer caps--the 2002 sc430 round ones. I want these to be chrome.

  5. For dings I wouldn't have the door repainted, I'd talk to a paintless dent repair company first.

    As for the neighbor, they sell magnetic rubber door edge guards. Buy em and put them on the side your neighbor parks on. That should help.

    I hate jerks that are like that...

    I wish there was a way to hold them financially responsible. I got a few estimates for repainting the door and was told by all 3 places that the hood needed to be blended. The range was $600-1800.

    Neighbor opens door into driver's side fender--will these rubber guards help that area? What do they look like?

  6. I've brought my car to Kennedy at Premier Autoworks.  He is located in South El Monte.  626-401-1464. 

    He used to have a SC or two, and currently drives a GS.  He owns his Lexus cars...so I would not hesitate to bring my car to him again.  His shop has a really nice paint booth as well.  I brought my car to him because I was rear ended recently. 

    Tell him that Dominic w/ the gold SC sent you.  I still have to pick up my exhaust tips from his shop.

    :cheers: Thanks mate, will do.

    where the heck is S. El Monte anyways? I'm near downtown

  7. :chairshot: Thanks to my neighbor, who keeps opening her door into mine, I need some paint chips and scratched chrome fixed.

    Errr how  :censored:

    Any good, reputable places anyone can recommend a girl?  The color is pearl white and I've been told this color is difficult to come by. So I've been told?? Help.

    I would go wherever you want and your neighbor should be paying the bill.

    Damn skippy! When I indirectly confronted her, her response was not to deny it but eventually to remind me that I "have no proof" :whistles: . This is the type of person that makes me want to put spy cameras in the car just to rub some proof in her face the next time she takes evil delight in trying to make my car as ugly as hers. :chairshot:
