new rack is gonna cost you around 230-250 but there is no fluid inside the rack, i think your steering gear is leaking

and this steering gear costs around 1200$

but! there is a steering gear seal kit provided by lexus and it costs only around 120$

yes i do

if u have all the parts he charges around 400$ for the labor.

if you want hes phone number let me know

i used to fix his car over there, now i do most of the stuff myself, but for major repairs i still go there.

i dont know about 90-94 LS

but 95-97 with nakamichi have tweeters in the doors

as to the first gen i'm not really sure, most of them had pioneer units and i dont know much about em

mounting kits are hard to find, ive seen people in local shops creating custom kits.

there are a lot of parts over there, which one gives you a leak?

you just happen to have an ls400 that was not properly serviced or used. i have an ls400 with 130k miles and my paint is still shinig and leather is really soft with noscratches except 2 minor ones on drivers seat and i didnt do anything except regualr maintenance. and btw i "raced" with SLS and lincoln ls v8. on the first gear nothsrat kicked lil more torque then mine 1`uzfe, but after 40 mph ls400 is the king. mb s430 and bmw 530 are the only ones that can argue with ls400 on the highway. my uncle had sls and he traded it in after only 25k for ml320 due to regular visits to the dealership. every 3-4 weeks he had to replace something wasting whole day. american cars are comfy and even some of them are fast. but when it comes to reliability nothing can even be around them. (except buick ) check the current reliability stats for this year if you dont beleive me. i worked for vallet parking for 3 years couple of years ago and thats why i bought lexus, ive seen and driven moslty any car that you have out there and i had plenty of chanses to compare them. Lexus is the best in reliablity and quality of ride.

for 10k you can get 95 or 96 with mileage around 100-120k

not in a dealership or lot, but at the auction

thats how i got mine and i got it like 4-5k cheaper

you mean instrument cluster?

what kind of blinking problem?

instrument cluster you can get on ebay. i've seen plenty of them over there. if you want the whole dash that might be more of a problem

thats y it got dark, dont worry about it:)

what year?

and what kind of diagram?

it might not be as rad as u imagine if you didnt change it for a long time, just put it on ur finger and try to rub it in ur skin with another finger, this transmission fluid feels kinda different then the regular fluid :D

yeah, dont do it, whole procedure requires removal of drivers seat and whole dash and takes whole day........

here is the rim, i think its a pretty good deal for a chrome one

there are no CV joint in front wheels of the LS 400:)

as to the rear ones, both of them (right and left ) are around 500$ each

there are no boots in front because you havea rear wheel drive car, so check all the brake lines etc...

the kind of paper they use is therm paper, as you correctly stated its the same as in the fax mashine, the principle of using this paper is that it reacts to heat. that is why it turned black. it is still strange, this paper requires a rather big temperature to turn black, it might happen if your lights were on and the small light inside the ashtray was constantly on and smth was pushing the receipt the wall.

i just need one rim, i dont wanna spend money on the whole set, at least not yet:)

i wanna switch to those rotating rims with low profile tires. but thats in next year:)

i got nice deal on ebay for 160$ for a rim, looks like a good deal

i think i should get it

part number and regular MSRP for Lock, Doors

Right . part number 6903050120 . $254.99

Left . part number 6904050120 $254.99

sorry cant find any info how to remove the panel. also if you will replace the lock double check the part number

go to www.lexus.com, register there and this site have an option of requesting a free manual.

this is what i got, none of those sites have it, if some1 will c it please let me know

thanks:)
