TurboGS300

The drain is down on that side as well as the temp sensor for the fans. I guess one of those could be leaking. B) The drain usually has a hose attached that runs out a hole in the engine under panel.

It will take about a week to get, so decide if that's worth saving $24 + tax. B) I've already purchased one of these radiator and it is an exact fit and match to the OEM. You won't be disappointed. I wanted to get a metal one, since the plastic ones crack, however I couldn't find one that was an exact match to the OEM one. if it last another 12 to 13 years I figure it's worth it. GS3 Radiator

Uhhh Beavis <_< You will NOT get a repair manual for free from the dealer. Owners manual Yes, Repair manual no way! Unless it's part of the deal before buying the car

Exactly! I don't know how many times someone said "all the fuses look fine". I break out the DMM only to find a fuse blown

Make sure the IS radiator is exactly like the GS one. So everything will bolt up and on. The GS is only $100 + shipping. I'd stick with what's designed for the car. B)

Same place mine cracked, however, I saw the whisps of steam coming out over the hood as I was driving. My scoop was off, so maybe that's why? B)

Yes they do, search google for the best prices. B)

You could search EBay or google, probably at least $100, however, well worth it. Stay away from the "CD-ROM" ones. <_<

Have you had the car since new? Could someone have already replaced it at 60,000? Otherwise it sounds like yours is the exception. B)

I'd pick the second set if those were my only choice B)

lotsa miles, 57K to be exact. I told them that this was a 'non-mileage' related piece of equipment and that the time factor was more applicable than the 50k limit, but they essentially said 'too bad, $650 please' ← Try another dealer <_< Is the car completely stock with no add ons to the stereo? If so, I can almost guarantee you it's NOT the connections. The harnesses are locked in to the radio, they don't just come out or loose.

If it still continues to lose coolant, pressure test the cooling system to find the leak. B)

Are you using premium fuel? I doubt any damage has been done. Short trips are one of the worst things for a car. As the engine never gets hot enough to burn all the carbon and other deposits off. I recommend you take you car on a vacation or do more frequent maintenance :D Are you using synthetic oil? Maybe you should start.

If that were the case he would have some white smoke <_<

Mr. Sypher recommends

If the cap is bad it could overheat because it will not allow the pressure to build, A new cap is $5 or $6, just replace it. If the hose is not "firm", your water pump may be bad, which means the water is not being cooled, again overheating. With the cap off and the motor cool, so you don't get scalded by the fluid. Fill the radiator up to near the top, Start the car, leave the cap off temporarily, rev the motor and see if the fluid level drops in the radiator neck. If it does the pump is probably fine. If not the pump is probably bad. If the radiator is original it could benefit from an internal and external flush. As over time sediments can clog the rows, restricting them and could cause overheating. Make sure the front of the radiator is not blocked by debris as well. Replacing the radiator is not to bad, a new one can be bought for $100+ shipping. The hardest part is removing the trans cooler lines as they're usually on there very tight and the clips are hard to get to to release the hose. B) Does the electric fan come on? It has a sensor in the bottom right corner of the radiator, when facing the front of the car, that may need to be cleaned or replaced. I replaced my water pump at the 90,000 service along with the timing belt and thermostat. At about 100,000 miles my radiator top plastic tank cracked, so I replaced it and all the hoses and installed T-Bolt clamps on all the new hoses. So my cooling system is like new. I've heard of several others radiators splitting around the same mileage, so plan on doing it in the near future. I have a new pump if yours is bad, let me know if you need it. If the engine starts to overheat while your driving turn the heat all the way up and the fan on low, of couse this will only help cool the motor if the water pump is working. How many miles are on the car?

Search for this thread, I posted all the info in it "Uk Member Needs Help, Removing Door trim Card" B)

Take it back to whomever installed it if you can or a competent shop. Who's the manufacturer of the windshield? If it was an original windshield, it would have been installed by lexus and more than likely you wouldn't be having this problem. <_<

Sweet man, good job <_< Make sure you keep up on that stuff, so it doesn't get clogged again

At the top of the page click on search and type in "best tires" B)

Hey bigapopka :D You only need to post something once. We're not ignoring you, someone will answer you question. While you're waiting you can always search, i just did and found some info about what tires to look for. look for sweet teas post titled "need tires B4 inspection".

Should be an easy thing, not sure of the size! <_<

Sk reminded me, many times the installer willl use a universal or generic trim or seal. Try to reuse or get an OEM trim or seal.

Pittsburg plate & Glass is considered the best in aftermarket. If you can't go OEM go PPG <_<

You have to take into account time as well, not just mileage. My 93 GS had almost 90 thou on it in 2004 and everything I mentioned needed to be replaced. I don't believe coolant is good for more than 5 years.B)
