  1. fuel filter is located on the body right above the rear differential, i wold not recommend doing the job yourself. car has to be on the lift for easy access and it still takes couple of mins to unscrew and remove hoses and you will have spills of fuel all over you. better pay 20$ for a mechanic to do the dirty job:)
  2. if the lights are on it means that error code exists while they are on. you should get the error code out and post it here and we will be more then glad to tell you what it means.
  3. he he i would not want to try this on my car:)
  4. hmm really strange problem, what if you just turn on fans and then press on the ac button? put the temp to max first and check if its gonna die.
  5. heh, this is what i have :) compustar 2 way alarm.
  6. i have a garage and when i go to work car is parked in the lot,what i mean is that sometimes when i go somewhere i have to leave it outside and this is really scarin:)
  7. well get the error code and then you will be able to c to which sensor it relates.
  8. contact a member PIONEERSUBY, he is a professional with those lexus audio systems.
  9. it is possible that your car was inthe accident and was not repaired properly. check the records of the car, you can do so by callin any lexus dealer and providing them with your vin number. it is my first time hearing that trunk leaks.
  10. yeah even if you would be able to set your shock sensor to this level of sensitivity, alarm would go off even if some walkes by, i'm not talkin bout trucks or bikes....... or even rain or wind!!!. it really bothers me that my chrome center cups might get stolen as well. i'm having a hard time leaving my car on the street.
  11. but they dont usually provide this kind of info:( they might dont even have this info themselves
  12. i like em too, the only concern i have with all aftermarket rims is that LS is a pretty heavy car and i'm afraid that they gonna bent or just brake if i hit a pothole.
  13. its a precautinary matter, but i would recommedn chenging it ewbven if its not failing. check if oil is not leaking from it and if you can press it in. btw new tensioner would be bigger and its gonna be new. since u chanig everything why not change it as well?
  14. to get a key from the dealer you have to show em the registration on ur name and your driver license, i hope they are not in the purse
  15. i'm glad that ppl are actually gonna use my article. makes me feel good:) thats what this forum is all about - to help ppl:)
  16. http://www.lextreme.com/timing.htm here is the exact same article posted on lextreme website.
  17. its a 10 mb file, i dont think hotmail would be able to accept it. as to changin, it was ez, just time consuming.
  18. its pretty ez except the part when u put the timing belt back, but its time consuming. let me know if u got questions
  19. you can do tbelt and w pump urself and save around 900$
  20. do you know for sure that u got some freon left in there?
  21. check the pinned thread about LS body kits. if you are interested in purchasing one contact mrsypher and he will give u all additional info.
  22. b4 changing ball joints etc do wheel alignment first since this is the cheapest fix and you have to eliminate it first, after that proceed to the tie rod and ball joints.
  23. my AC system in legend had a leak and it still does, i'm not sure if i will fix ti since the hose that is leaking costs 250$:( but i vacoomed the system and got it with artificial r12 with die that i got off ebay and it really helped to find a leak, why is it harmful and to what? rubber seals and rubber hoses? the nice part is that you dont have to change oil in the compressor if you use artificial r12.:) saved some trouble for me:) otherwise as far as i know you have to suck old mineral oil out and put the one designed for r134, if you mix r134 with r12 oil it will foam and destroy the system.
  24. give me your email and i will send you a step by step howto with pix that i created when i was doing mine.
