after 6yrs my leather has cracked all over the place,

Hello Friends, My 2003 LS430 ultra all of a sudden no longer can play cassettes. It started when the adapter ( cass w/ aux wire ) just popped out. I bought another and it did the same thing. I tried a few cassettes and they too all popped out. I have about 100 tapes and over 200GB of MP3's. I cleaned the inside w/ alcohol, blew w/ air also. Any ideas? AK47 on standby...

I have an 03 LS430 ultra 54,000 mi. got it 3/07 40,270 mi ever since I had car, it never went straight, if you take your eyes off the road for a second- it goes to another lane. ( even after the alignments ) I feel every cut, hole, bump in the road ( 225/55/17 goodyear assurance tires - i know... ) also, I hear the wind noise as soon as i hit 45mph. ( org windshield ) serious hesitation all the time ( drive by wire issue ) I even disconected batt. what do you all think it may be? I just had another alignment, roadforce balance rotation, radiator flush ( they state on receipt drain/fill ) tranny flush, p/s flush. $675 Under warranty: I had the sub replaced, rear shade readjusted, mirrors and control switch replaced, fuel tank fill line replaced. I had an ind mech check the car out and he says all is well. I just got a set of plugs SK20R11 denso amazon 9.35/ea I want to change them @ 60k and do the timing belt/water pump @ 75k. what cleans dirty hand dirt from the leather? http://www.edmunds.com/maintenance/recallt...rtner=edmunds#1

I love the Dynamic Laser Cruise Control for slow traffic. I set it @ 48mph on a 45mph road @ 17:00 today, it held away from the car in front digitally until it beeped and disconnected. When it breaks hard and shifts down, do the brake lights go on???????

I'm sure many of you know this but to those that don't... If you extend/retract and/or raise/lower steering all the way then click 8 more times in same direction it will go even more. Any more w/ some tricks/tips would be fun. ~ Carmine

Hi guys, the other day, I pulled off the neg wire on my 2003 LS430. After about an hour, I reattached; reset the radio and seats and rode around for awhile, filled tank at same place and...... now I'm getting 23MPG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I still feel the drive by wire but now, it has more torque.

did you do it your self? if so, re-do if one of the stealers did it, bring it back ( B4 a seal pops ) and have THEM re-do it.

TurboBoB, I dont know the keystrokes for clapping but.... Bravo I read you response 3x and I feel better ( I just ordered a set of MXV4' & Hydroedge ) I can try them for a week and still go back to my own. I f I go back, I pay $100 for being a pain in the tail. Thank you Bob, stay well I'll let ya know ~Carmine

SRK so kind for your advice... I will do as you say. I'll let y'all know Carmine SRK thanks again !!!!!!!!!!

I'm soooo sorry to rant again... I have a 2003 LS430 47,300 I saved 14yrs for this car The ride is getting worse, I drift all over the road ( no wind ) and feel the road like a MB S430. toyota / Lexus stealers say all is fine. goodyear assurance tires from the dealer. I drive like an old man ( always did, even in my 92 camry & 98 lincoln ) ( I did a tranny flush @ 46,800, now I feel every gear ) drive by wire driving me crazy like an 07 camry. So much hesitation and did the disconnect of the neg batt term. I have to keep this car 'cause now... It's only worth $33k ( bought it 3/20/07 for $40k --- CPO ) Please advise me of what to do, I keep my cars in mint Mechanical condition Carmine Peace & Love to your Families

Thanks guys, I had Toyota do the flush ( type T-IV used ) I hope. The shifts are not hard but there... not B4 the flush ( or I'm feeling too much )

Hello all, I've had my tranny flushed and now I feel every gear shift. I had a 2007 Camry and it did the hesitation dance also ( fly by wire throttle ) Also, when should I change the coolant? Thanks again, Carmine

LOL,LOL,LOL,LOL,LOL,LOL I knew it was not just me lol,lol,lol,lol

Ironic that today, I had my tranny flushed for $190 they also said I needed to flush my power steer fluid $90 ( I got the car 3/20/07 and was told it - PS fluid was done due to CPO ) another lie from the other dealer. I love my toyota dealer !!!!!!

hay there, bring the car to toyota dealer and see what they say

thanks VBdenny

Thank you DCFISH, I have the LS430. It's prob the same. Thank you much PS this was the real Lexus I wanted LS400

Thanks Mejaz. I've been freakin out about this car that I got taken. I just found out that the left rear 1/4 panel has been repaired. ( I went to Lexus dealer, and they put the little toy to measure the color depth ) .08
