I had similar problem when I bought my 07 ES 4 years ago. There are many possible causes. Speedevil's TSIB covers most of them. Besides these, center air vent may cause noise. You could try this, when you hear the rattle, use your finger and push the start button area (not the button, of course). If the rattle goes away when you push it and the noise comes back when you release your hand, then perhaps the air vent is the problem. Remove the vent unit and put some black color electric tape on edge of the housing, the rattle will probably go away. There is a 3rd possibility. Front windshield may result in a tick noise. Lexus bulletin TSIB005-06 is addressing this problem. This is a much harder task. You need to remove the wind shield and modify 4 glass stoppers.

Hi, My '07 ES350's battery's life is fading now. Went back to dealer and was told battery is in good shape. 12.5V after a full charge is good? No, I don't believe it. I estimate Lexus 4 years warranty will be expired before battery dead. Then I searched this website and tried to find my answer but only found some brands such as Kirkland, Ever Start, or Optima,... Today I went to Costco and their battery guide said CCA585 Group35 is the right size. I remember I found Group 24 is ok for ES350 battery housing on some other websites. Anyone here uses Kirkland group 24 battery? What's its CCA? Thank you. pma

A custom made wiring harness is needed for the install. dcfish, Thank you for your reply. Do you have ES350 nav and the harness? A local car stereo shop can do the install? How about rear camera, which models do you suggest? Pls email me at pma0224 @ hotmail.com. Appreciate.

Hi, Did you guys really install the original ES350 navigation unit? Is it working, nav, stereo, all speakers on the none-nav wiring? How about bluetooth and rear camera? Thank you. pma
