I have a 2000 LX470. The front suspension is riding very roughly. I have taken the vehicle to a Lexus dealer and was told both of the accumulators in the front suspension are bad and need to be replaced. Now I have heard from many sources that it is more common for the height suspension sensors to go bad. But the dealer's technician have checked the sensors and found both front sensors to be properly functioning.
The parts and labor is about $2,000. I am in the Detroit, Michigan area.
1. Besides the dealers, does anyone know of a reputable Lexus repair shop in the Detroit area?
2. Is there a discount Lexus OEM parts website or resellers out there?
3. Anyone encountered the same problem with the front accumulators? I was told by the dealer tech that the two accumulators in the back suspension are on their way out as well.
