  1. Hello All. I test drove a 99 GS 400 today. I had 124k on the clock. While driving, when I would Hit the gas I would hear a "Thump" sound. The car went through all the gears fine after that but whats that sound? While maintaing 45 mph and hitting the gas I would get the same sound. Normal? Also, while at idle I her a "power steering pump" whine, but when turning the wheel left to right It didnt get louder. Tapping the gas made it whine more? They are asking 11 for the car. Please Advise.. P
  2. My link My link Hello All. I’m looking for a daily driver. Which of these would you choose?
  3. Knowing you guys are the experts, I wanted to ask you all this question. Regarding performance, quality,looks, maintenance and the overall ownership if you had to do it ALL over again and it were down it a Mitsubishi 3000GT SL or SC300 which would you choose and why? P
  4. Hello All. Does Someone have or can someone show me a picture of or tell me what a Stock L-Tune GS looks like or has? I'm looking to purchase a GS, 2003. It's Black. The guy removed the 430 badge but the L logo is like a blck chrome color and the front grill doesnt have a L just a straight bar in the middle. The rims are a gray Spoke style but have "L" in them. Not that the is a AMG car or anything but I dont think this guy knows or I'm the sucker. P
  5. Hello All, Here's an update to what happened. If you’re looking standing in front of the car and looking down, on the right side of the motor is a short but exposed spark plug wire. Well my mine was, and I can’t figure it out how, was cut! So, the car was running on 4 cylinders! I replaced all the plugs with OEM plugs and new wires and now she runs like a champ. Thanks for all your help. I hope this helps someone else... P
  6. Would the car run, move with the belt broken or slipped? That was my thought. Chugging like a diesel also reminds me of a broken EGR pipe. Where is the EGR pipe? The car seems to be running on 4 cyldrs...
  7. Hello All! I need help? I started the car today and one, it's sounding like an old Mercedes Diesel, and its idling like some old Ford P/U and when backed it up and put it drive...holy S! No power! What happened? It's almost driving like it’s in a "limp mode." I just had the spark plugs changed. She has 271k. Belts, oil, etc all taken care by Lexus. Has anyone else experienced this? I don’t have a check Engine light? Please Advise?
  8. My overdrive light started flashing. I was driving on a road that I couldnt stop on, so I turn the O/D off then back on and it keep flashing. What does that mean?? I called Lexus and they want me to bring the car in. Mind you I always get the car serviced through Lexus and it only has 267K on it. There's a second between the flashes. Anyone else have this problem? Am I in trouble? Is this a sign for bad things to come? And advice?
  9. Last night while driving, my overdrive light started flashing. I was driving on a road that I couldn’t stop on, so I turn the O/D off then back on and it keep flashing. By this time I was in full metal panic!! I got to my destination and when I looked down the light was off. It didn’t come back on. Holy S!! What does that mean?? I called Lexus and they want me to bring the car in. Mind you I always get the car serviced through Lexus and it only has 257K on it. Am I in trouble? Is this a sign for bad things to come? And advice? P
