The weatherstripping came off a few years ago on my 2006 RX400h's rear hatch door. (Moving big items in and out rubs against it, it's inevitable it seems if you use it for cargo!) I got away with a few years of using the black goo glue to put it back in place, but now it's in tatters and stretched and it's done. I need to replace it. The hinge for the hatch door seems to stop the new weatherstripping from going on easily - does anyone know if this is a DIY job? Thanks for your help.

Generation 4 Navigation Hybrid Disc
w@ntonsoup replied to swabby's topic in Audio / Video / Electronics Forums
Worked for me - I am now running 10.1/5.1 hybrid, baby! If someone wants a copy of this disc, I'll be happy to make them for a small fee. Drop me a PM. EDIT It doesn't work . The system won't let you enter an address or select a POI. (It does let you select a pre-entered memory point, but that's it). So.... One must decide, whether they want new maps but no Override ability, or really old maps. I think we'll go with new maps. -
Nav Upgrade 2006 Rx400h
w@ntonsoup replied to graywolf's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
We're not talking about the disclaimer, we're talking about the ability to override the "can't use while in motion" cr@p. -
Cheapest Place For Rx400h Cabin Air Filter?
w@ntonsoup replied to w@ntonsoup's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
I bought a filter at NAPA for $15 - how do you replace it? Do you have to take the glove box out or something? -
Cheapest Place For Rx400h Cabin Air Filter?
w@ntonsoup replied to w@ntonsoup's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
I always liked the 968. As a kid I loved the 944, and the better headlights on the 968 really updated the look. Nice car! Is it cabrio or hardtop? Back to the air filter, I may try leaving a window cracked. It's obvious that NOT doing that is creating a stinky science experiment in the freaking filter. -

FRONT (Left & Right the same) Camber: -1.3° to 0.2° Caster: 2.0° to 3.5° Toe: -0.10° to 0.10° SAI: 9.8° to 11.3° Included Angle: 8.5° to 11.5° Cross Camber: -0.8° to 0.8° Cross Caster: -0.8° to 0.8° Total Toe: -0.20 to - 0.20° REAR (Left & Right the same) Camber: -1.1° to 0.2° Toe: 0.05° to 0.20° Total Toe: 0.09° to 0.39° So I had my car aligned TWICE at the reputable shop in my area, and then took it to Lexus for them to do it at 250% of the price... But, they found that my rear right was way out of alignment already (-0.11 when specs are 0.05 - 0.20 !) They got that into spec, and it's certainly better. BUT it still wants to go right too much!

We just got new Bridgestone Dueler Alenza tires installed, and immediately had the vehicle aligned afterwards (10 minutes afterwards!) As we drove away, if we let go of the wheel we'd be in the next lane to the right within about 7 seconds. It's 3 days later, and we brought it back into the alignment shop and they tested it again, said it was absolutely perfect, and even took my wife on a test drive to show her. Of course, during the drive it veered into the right lane repeatedly, but the guy kept saying that was normal because of the crown of the road. Well, I've been driving in Colorado for 14 years and haven't ever noticed such a distinct pull to the right. Suggestions? Advice?

Regardless, sell your vehicle yourself. Trading in means you're literally throwing several thousand dollars away.

Brand New Rx350 Versus Rx400h
w@ntonsoup replied to lsrxlex's topic in 04 - 09 Lexus RX330 / RX350 / RX400h
The RX350 and RX400h, IMHO, don't compete. The 350 is a V6 while the 400h is effectively a V8 with BETTER than V6 economy. The 400h competes with BMW X5 V8, Porsche Cayenne V8, etc.
