I had a long chat with sewell dallas and they insisted that 5w-30 is the best ever for the current models since 2003. Seeing the viscoscity and its properties are quite similar, I cannot say why because it could be the oil temp variance & kinetic viscosity temp as this could hit the seals around and they do have some abrasive properties. This is purely what i studied.

The decision is still left with you to take the right one. If your vehicle is covered by a warranty , follow recommended oil from your service manager and go for the recommended one.

for me during summer ill use 5-30 but in winter times ill use 5w-20 since i usually do cold starting...i think for the warranty it doesnt matter if its 20 or 30 as long both are accepted by lexus

I belive they changed it already to 5W-20 instead of the 5W-30

what i dont like on my lexus nav is i cant input any dealership besides toyota and lexus. i have to call somebody to check and give me the address of an acura dealership. but i think even the acura nav doesnt have any lexus address. sounds fair not to us...

i just upgraded awhile ago with a copy version and everything is straightforward. all it say is dont turn the power off and after a few seconds. its 6.1 version already. but be sure to put the correct map location as default is set i think on location 8 or 9 and i live in california so when i tried searching for walmart its showing 2000 miles away from my current location.

can you distinguise the year model just by looking on the outside?

and is it more better if i connect the live wire under the seats wiring control.since i noticed it is always on or connected to the battery? i noticed it when i remove the keys and its still functional.

Planning to put an auxillary 12v socket and just want to ask on how to safely revive the center console so i can hide the cables underneat.

first thing is to check this site www.lexus-europe.com so if you cant buy form netherlands buy it from somewhere coz most gps done in europe is mostly europewide but the problem is the language. i think none of them sells the GX . only the GS , rx, ls and sc.

i am a proud owner of a Gx. totally agreed gx lands on the top ten most appealing autos.

I think to be in the safe side thats what they told me. they replaced Rear Propeller shaft and rear suspension control arm.

i have it done on the 9th of november but what they told me that i might still experience some clunk but not as bad as before. they told me that nothing is wrong with it and just upgraded the questionable parts. anyway i still have 5 years on the warranty..

the first time i saw that water spraying is with my brother in laws passat and was amased by it and hoping it do the same with the GX but its not, anyway , i can live without it but would be happier if indeed it has.

sorry it may be a silly question but just want to ask if washers from gx sprays like a stream of water or sort of fans out. i noticed from newer models of cars nowadays have washers that pulsates and fans out on the on the entire glass. went to a dealer and told me that it is normal as the car uses a high concentration liquid to take cAREof bugs on the windshield.

Many thanks Antonio. i worked on my 05 gx470

actaully its a loaner car but i saw 2006 on the paper but at the back i think its a es350. anyway have returned the car so no more need for it.

im trying to find the navigation console on the es350 2006 and cant find where it is. just want to take out the dvd and check if thats compatible with my other gx 470
