I would suggest trying to get the door handle, the part inside that you use to open the door and hope and pray that the cable came off from the handle and not near the actuator part. I would then try and grab one of the cables, one is for lock / unlock and one is to open it. I am sure you have tried this although you did not say. You might be able to take the rear seat out, remove the weather stripping and try to remove the panel. You are in a really tight spot with this and I feel for you. Goodluck

I have a fan motor assembly. sounds more like the control module though I have a non GPS control unit as well. BP

Fishing line.. work it back and forth to get in behind it..,.. do a search on debadging. BP

Sounds like a ball joint.. be careful BP

Jeff, I am assuming that your looking for a car to buy or a spoiler? I have both for sale. My car does not have the spoiler but I have one to match the color of the car. The spoilers are bolted on. See the followoing link.. http://www.clublexus.com/forums/2gen-gs430...tml#post4404474 BP

Well.. I think that the 1st to 2nd shift is controlled by the valve body not a solenoid. If I am wrong someone correct me. I am basing this on the 5 speed transmission that they are putting in the Tundra starting with 05. It has a sliding mechinism that might be sticking. Use a product that is intended to "flush" the trans like an AutoRX product then like djspawn stated make sure you use the correct fluid. I think that Mobil 1 has fluid that is trated for the Type IV fluid... Good luck let us know what you find. I am going through this with my Tundra 00 now. I am just now using the AutoRX product.. I am 200 miles into my 1k miles.. BP

Try this.. this guy says he knows how to repair this.. worth a try.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mabuchi-Mot...sQ5fAccessories

Sounds like the starter. You could take it off and clean it hoping that the solenoid is stuck with crud... BP

Sounds to me like you have a fan that is locked up. I had a Toyota Tundra that did the same thing. I replaced the fan but after disassembly I think the thing to do would have been to spray the bushings down with WD-40 or some other type of penitrent. Then use a silicon lube to get it to spin. If that does not work replace the fan assembly. Good luck.. B

You might have to try and remove the door panel from the inside. You could remove the bottom section of the seat to get to the bottom of the door panel. I think your in a bit of a difficult situation. If you have never taken the rear panel off I would suggest taking the side that open off to get a fee for where the clips are etc.. I would not "slim jim" it as there are a good number of wires in the door. Good luck. BP

sounds like a head gasket.... good luck.. let us know what you find.. BP

Super nice job.. I have looked at this and your right.... that little screw driver is a MUST!. Very nice detail.. everyone should have pictures.. BP

Pictures please..... ???????????

Press the gas pedal to the floor and turn the key. Did you just start it and let it run for a few seconds then turn it off? http://www.clublexus.com/forums/showthread...mp;goto=newpost BP

The cost of the core is nothing compared to getting it in. BP
