I am interested in it. I have a 2003 lx470. What are you going to sell it for? Thanks.

you are right. I am in no hurry . I get to drive the lx and my wife gets to driv e a new es ! I am leaving on a 2000 mile drive next week. I should have planned better! ha . but I do hope they find the problem. I think they may be a little more serious this time or maybe it got recorded in the computer

oh by the way lexus has had my car 2 days with no word as of yet. My wife is just driving their loaner. I am calling them tomorrow. 2 days is a long time for lexus

are you kidding I love that old ugly beast with the new car smell!!!

the lx 470 is great but remember its not a ls400 or ls430. It is a suv and is always a little soft and bouncy or stiff and harsh depending where you set the ride contro. For a suv it is great. I like it better than the escalade. I tried both( my parents are ex GM employees) even with the big rebates from GM I went for the lx470. I paid 53,000 for it new with cool chrome lexus wheels, the upgrade sound system,.sunroof deflector etc. I didnt get the back dvd system or rear spoiler. I could have bought the GM for 43000 with all my discount for a 03. I have only had it about 45 days with 2500 miles on it

yes i do have the drivetrain warranty. thats why its there now plus i have a 03 lx470 that i just bought new last month from them. i really do not want a new engine. I have been though that routine before. nothing is ever hooked up the same as factory.

warranty ran out in oct but they have it in their file. it is in tne shop at this moment for a high throttle surge . it will suddenly rev up when you are at a light or driving. It has done this about 3 or 4 times and scared my wife to death. it could kill someone. the dealer just says oh well and says they need to see it happen. Right!!!!

it only has 30000 miles on it and it did it at 10000 miles. it has only done it about 5 or 6 times but thats 5 or 6 too many

oops sorry didnt notice the caps lock was on. well i fany one else has ever heard of this I would like to know. What does the VVT-i do with valves. ecectronically vary the timing or what?

THISMUST BE A VERY ISOLATED PROBLEM OR OTHERS WOULD BE SCREAMING MAD ABOUT IT. iT IS REAL NASTY SOUNDING AND MAKES YOU WANT TO SHUT OFF THE CAR RIGHT AWAY!

MY 2000 LS400 EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE WILL START AND MAKE A VERY LOUD RATTLE AND KNOCK ON STARTUP. LEXUS SAYS IT IS A STUCK VALVE AND THAT IT HAPPENS ONCE IN AWHILE. THEIR ANSWER IS "JUST SHUT IT OFF AND RESTART IT AND IT WILL BE FINE". THAT DOES WORK BUT AFTER ALL THIS IS A LEXUS!!. WHAT KIND OF A ANSWER IS THAT? AM I THE ONLY ONE TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM?
