  1. It's my first Lexus IS300 and i would like to change the Shocks and Struts. Can anybody recommend a goog quality brand that does not sacrifice the ride quality...i love the way it drives and would be dissappointed if the drive quality changes. I'm trying to avoid buying the Shocks and Struts from a Lexus Dealer, i've heard that they tend to raise the prices quite high.

    Any Aftermarket suggestions guys?!!

    Much thanks for the help...

  2. Cool deal...3 hours ago, i spoke to a Toyota/Lexus Service manager and he informed me that a Timing belt might need to be repalced. I'm not sure if that's relevant, but hey, i'll give it shot since my cousin will be paying for the Timing belt.

    I'll make sure to ask about a re-flash on the ECU as well as the Engine.

    My Uncle used to own a Toyota Dealership...would it be adviseable to take it to Toyota to re-flash the ECU/ENGINE. I hear Lexus dealerships can be quite costly...Just pondering, that's all.

    Once again...Much thanks for the info.

  3. How's it going guys...New guy in, i just acquired a 2001 Lexus IS 300 from a family member. This is my 1st Lexus i've ever driven...I was wondering if any of you guys experience an Jolt from an IS 300 after a complete stop. My cousin told me there's a problem with the tranny (1st to 2nd gears). I'm not sure if he's right?

    Anybody else experience this? Any suggestions how to fix it? Oh, and i was wondering the longevity to Lexus IS' before problems occur (Mileage wise--i.e. 90,000 or 100,000)

    Much thanks for any type of help Ladies and gents...
