I have had several LXs and am familiar with the stock head unit. This is not OEM, not sure what it is. coukd be a Bluetooth pairing button for an audio add on trace the wire to the component

I had a 2004 with 90k and no issues, so wine hit me and it was totaled then I got 2006, and put 190k on it, also no issues now I have a 2015, no issues to date with 101k miles knock on wood

I purchased halo type assemblies with the “brow” before and they were great, looked night and held up in New England snow/salt similar to this style in the attachment. I think my brand was Anzo. I had a pearl white lx so the reflector background was my choice. If I had a black lx, it would look slick with the black background

Not sure if it matters but there was a known TSB issue with the mirror relay inside the mirror assembly That would prevent the mirror from returning to the home position after tilting down

Water pump and timing belt won’t change the feel... just know that. It is good to get it done, but it won’t be cheap. Did you decide on Michelin tires? You will feel a big difference with the comfort of those tires....

I had a 1996, 2004, 2006 and now 2015.... there is no way that beating you to death is normal. If all the mechahicals are good then that leaves the tires. Trust me on the tires, get Michelin it you want a good ride. You get what you pay for and the other brands WILL impact ride quality.

Glad to be of assistance. You should call (;&@)$ back and tell them you took it to a repair guy and he charged you a $100 for the diagnosis and replugging it in. Have them give you the money and split it with me! I could send you bill, just kidding! same thing happened to me with a remote car starter install, only difference my shop didn’t blame it on me. They checked it out for and hour figured it out fixed it and apologized. Sometimes getting a good deal with someone working on your car is not worth it. I hate the Lexus dealer....so I go to Toyota, they can do 90% if the work at 60-70% of the cost

Near that panel where you knees are look for a few little lives that look like vents in the plastic, half inch wide. Behind that is a temp sensor that tells the car what the temp is. So if it is set to 73 degrees that sensor relays to the climate control whether to send heat or cooling. When they removed the panel they had to unplug it. It prob just not pluggged in or the wire is pinched or damaged

Anytime, it took me a very long time and a lot of research to figure it out! When you hear it again just remember what to say. I save it in the contact info for the dealer in my phone!

It has happened on my 1996, 2004, 2006 models. Obviosly I love this car... it is common. It can be allieviated by having the Toyota dealer (which I prefer over Lexus) grease the slip slider yoke zirk fitting. But it will come back. No harm done

I would like to know as well, pictures would be an added plus

I have the same problem on my 1997, 2004, and 2006. I wish I knew why, all my windows are closed fully

Do the above procedure and then recalibrate the steering wheel. Find a parking lot or dead end. You will want to drive I circles or 8's to calibrate the best way..

Try unplugging both terminals of the battery, with the battery unplugged, put the key in the on position to drain left over charge, leave it that way for 5 - 10 min, them remove the key, plug the battery back in. And give it a start. You may need to re calibrate the steering if the RSCA comes on. Another thing you may want yo check before doing all that is the differential lock button to make sure that's off, its located by the power antenna button by your right knee when sitting in the driver seat.
