I own a Jaguar E-Type (XKE) and a Datsun 240Z, I prefer driving my GS400 over both of them. Perfect blend of luxury and performance, car has a nice growl when you get on it.

If there's a complaint (and it's minor), it's not as quick as it once was - meaning, everyone caught up! 0-60 in 5.8 seconds is more common place these days...

Oh, good - I have the Allen wrenches, just need the pump...I'll check that out!

Thanks!

Hmm, I may not have the tools...any idea of what a dealer might charge?

That sounds logical - my noise goes away as the car warms up...so it's worth a shot (and a cheap fix for sure).

Ian,

I have a 2000 GS400, exact same problem. Mine occurs at 40 mph, even in neutral. Mine sounds a lot like radio interference, but of course the radio is off. It doesn't increase in pitch, but gets louder once I hit 40 then goes away at like 42 mph...it's very high pitched.

No vibrations or anything when driving, just this noise.

HELP!

Congrats! I just purchased a 2000 GS400 with 65K miles...nice machine. A little older than I wanted, but they last forever and has everything I want.

Hi all, noob to the forum and GS ownership, just picked up a 2000 GS400 Platinum Edition. Nice shape, relatively low miles.

Noticed one issue that didn't appear on my test of the car - it's a high-pitched whine that sounds like radio interference. It only occurs at around 40 mph, when it's very cold.

I turned the radio off to confirm it's NOT the radio. I also put the car in neutral and revved the engine free to confirm it's not the engine.

My first thought is a wheel bearing. The whine stops once the car has been driven maybe a mile, but it's loud and I want to fix it. Any thoughts?

Appears to be coming from the left rear, but no way to confirm that.

Thanks in advance,
