  1. Has anyone noticed if their IS350 has a little shake once awhile at the stop light or something? If you have your engine on D at a stop light for example, you may feel a very little subtle "jerk" or "shake" once awhile. It is very subtle, so you may have to pay attention to it. Is there anything wrong with my transmission? or is my engine miss firing sometime?

  2. I have an IS350, and the engine sounds like a diesel engine. It has two noises. One is a "knocky" noise and the other is a "clicky" noise. I think the "clicky" noise is the solenoid, but what about the "knocky" noise? I use premium gas, so it can't be the gas. It sure doesn't sound like a G35 or BMW 330. Is this normal for IS350? Thanks.

  3. If you ever notice that the turning radius on this car is very small. What you may be hearing is the tire rubbing against the road surface. The profile of the tire does not help either. There is very minimal sidewal/air to absorb noise. I too have the 18in wheel pkg. I'll keep an ear out also.

    Yeah. That's what I think too, but I wasn't too sure if it happens to my car only or other cars too. I was going to go out to the dealer to test drive another car to see if it made the same noise. :) Thanks.

  4. Yeah, I'm interested as well. I've heard of conversion kits for H11 bulbs, but I wasn't sure how the ballasts and the all that stuff should best be placed. Holes needed? I've heard some doesn't require any drilling. Can the ballasts be where it could get wet because it could get wet in the engine bay? What brand is good? Want to do it to my IS350, but I don't want to risk any damage or problems. Thanks!
