  1. I just got back from a service appointment to have this fixed and they said the parts were no longer available and Lexus was trying to update or improve the parts in this existing TSB. Does anyone know anything about this and are they wrong? Should I try another Lexus dealership that may prove more knowledgeable. I just feel like they're giving me the run-around with this.
  2. Do you just make an appointment to have whatever you need fixed? Then, hand them the respective form for the TSB? Could you please explain the procedure on getting TSB's taken care of?
  3. Aha, a black car attracting bugs. What detailing products do you use? I've been using Meguiars' Gold Class Shampoo and Conditioner to wash my car. It sort of smells like Lever2000. I wouldn't say it was sweet smelling.
  4. Its happens to me also. I'll see several gnats and flies on my car (glacier frost). Been going on for several weeks now, but it has been raining here alot.
  5. I think the major issue with the headlights is the factory aiming of the low beams. The stock settings are very low and it doesn’t show much of the road ahead. I assume that this is a conservative aiming so as not to blind oncoming traffic but I still find it poor. I asked my dealer to check it out and they said it was normal. So I adjusted the driver’s side HID up a little and it made a big improvement. I would like to go through and perform the factory settings and try to optimize the aiming but I just don't have the time right now. Many people have adjusted the HID headlight what to high without regard for other drivers. I have seen this on all types of vehicles. I am hoping to optimize the aiming and still keep from glaring oncoming traffic. I'm also having trouble with the factory aiming. Could you please tell me how you adjusted it to raise the beam? I have the owner's manual, but it doesn't specifically explain raising or lowering the beam. I have a general idea, but wish to know more before I start turning the bolts.
  6. I have reason to believe that the speedometer on my 07 IS250AWD is not calibrated or showing the incorrect speed. I say this only because I've set the speed and passed several visible radars and the speed has been off by 1 to 3 notches, signifying a difference anywhere from 2 to 6 mph. The car only has 2.3K miles on it and I was wondering if there is a chance that this might self correct itself. Also, the car feels really slippery. What I mean by this is that 80mph does not feel like 80. It feels much slower. Is it possible that this could just be in my head and I really am going as fast as the speedo states, or has anyone else had this problem? What should I do and how should I go about getting this problem fixed? I didn't know how to do a search for this and if someone has already posted this topic, could someone please direct me in the right direction.
  7. http://pages.sbcglobal.net/gheumann/zaino_test/ Found this after I saw your post.
  8. Haven't seen one in person, but it looks kinda pinkish in the catalogs. Is it pinkish in person? not at all. it's more of a silvery bluish pearl color. Just think of a color between white, silver, and blue. This color has the properties of being all three, a combination of any two, or just one. And you have glacier frost mica.
