  1. I am absolutely in love with the car. Driving the car is awesome....heck just sitting in it is awesome. My only complaint so far is that road noise seems to be a little higher than I would have thought.
  2. I just bought the new 2014 IS 350 F-Sport I was talked into the Luxcare package, the 3 for 1 Comprehensive vehicle protection package, and the prepaid maintenance plan, I also got the Clear Mask and the 8 year 125K warranty, but I knew I wanted those. My question is does anyone have any experience with any of these? Would you recommend them?

  4. I purchased the new IS 350 on Thursday (7/5/2013) My first weekend with it was an enjoyable one. I went from an IS 250 to this car and I am liking the new horsepower. Details of the car: Nebula Grey with Red Interior Navigation Option F-Sport Option If you have any questions let me know. I will post pics later.
  5. I went and got a slip ring set and it worked. I got everything off and am putting it all back together now. The problem I am running into is the Hub (The part that has the pulley) I cant get that back on. I went and rented a tool, an AC clutch hub installer, but I have no idea how to use it. It seems like it should have come with some sort of screw that I screw into the compressor shaft or something. Anyone know of any spots where there are good instructions on how to use this tool, or any ideas.
  6. I have been following the guide to replace the A/C Clutch. I have the plate off but I cant get the pulley (Hub or whatever it is called) off. I see the slip ring but cant get that off. What tool would I use to get this off. Is there a better guide with better photos?
  7. I am having the same problem and cant log in. Can you send me the link for a 1991 LS400
  8. Does anyone know if you need a special tool to do this?
  9. I had Lexus look at my care today. They told me the same that my clutch was not engaging. They recommended that I first try and replace the clutch and if that doesn't fix it then replace the compressor. The problem is $500 for clutch replacement and $1400 for compressor. I called the local auto parts store and can get a clutch for $120 that is rebuilt. Is this pretty easy to replace. I have already replaced the fan bracket in this car so I have done some work under the hood. Also anyone have a tutorial for the clutch replacement
  10. I just recenlty bought a 1991 LS400 with 189,000 miles. I bought it knowing the the A/C didn't work. I had a local shop look at it and they said the clutch isn't engaging on it and it is an electrical problem. They cant fix that and told me to go to the dealership. I know that will cost an arm and a leg. Is there anything I can do myself?
  11. Is the was the blinking light means is not residual pressure?
