I just had the Raytel 4200 installed in my 2004 GX470 and could not be happier. They even managed to connect it to the volume down button so when calls come in or go out the stereo turns itself down. http://www.tellphone.com/index.php?option=...&Itemid=142 Raytel is now TellPhone The newer 5000VI system uses your navigation screen as it's display system. VERY SHARP! http://www.tellphone.com/index.php?option=...&Itemid=222

I purchased this unit to install in my GX but decided to go with the headrest units instead, Please contact me for pictures and purchase info. What you see is what you get, there are no other parts, hardware, wires, bolts etc. I do not have the installation manual and do not know if this is plug and play. It is OEM so you would think it would be prewired but I can not say for sure. I just want to get back what I have into it, I am asking $950 but may consider trades or accept less if you are a good negotiator. THIS IS IS THE OEM RES (rear entertainment system) FROM A 2004 GX470 I DO BELIEVE IT WILL WORK WITH 2000-2007. mgowe1@yahoo.com

I also have the 2004 Nav system here is the trick. turn the vehicle on and enter accept go to menu on the top right of the screen touch DVD, you will see the DVD NAV Disk info screen, you now touch the screen in the following sequence (just normally (not too slow but not fast, JUST NORMALLY) Top Left Corner Bottom Left Corner Top Left Corner Bottom Left Corner Bottom Right then press and hold you finger on "override" until it UN-highlights, then select back and use as usual . THIS WILL RESET AFTER VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF. (There are no buttons in the corners, you just touch in the corner.)

You can use the High mode to 19 MPH and the low to 9 MPH according to the manual. Low for loading things, High for increased ground clearance, very helpful for climbing a steep hill, keeps the tow package out of the dirt. mgowe1

The Kearney Mesa Dealer (those &*&%%$$!) said it felt like it was already done as mine was not too bad. You wanna know for sure weather your GX has the issue? Place the vehicle in drive on a level surface, apply the brake firmly (regular brake not hand brake) and switch the ride control from "N" to Low and then to high. If you have the issue you will think something is falling out from the bottom of the vehicle!

If you make enough noise about it, you can get it done for nothing....as it should be. It's been a known issue with this vehicle and Lexus should have fixed it permanently as soon as they knew it. But, they say because it is not a safety issue, they will only fix it if a customer complains and if it is still under the 50,000 warranty. You will see on the newest TSB that part of this service is covered to 70,000 miles and part only until 50,000 miles. Even my Lexus dealership did not know that part of it was covered under the 70,000 mile drivetrain warranty. I had to tell them to check the latest TSB. In the end, I got the whole thing done for nothing on my 2004 GX470 with over 60,000 miles. The newest TSB is April 2006. If anyone wants a copy of it, PM me with your email address and I will email you a PDF of it. Could you send a copy of the TSB to djkim@iland.net Thank You Darrell Please send a copy to mgowe1@yahoo.com, thank you

I am in San Diego area, my closest dealer is Kearney Mesa Lexus, So far I am, not impressed with their level of service and support, are there any recommendations as of what the best dealership in the area is? I have heard a few good things about Carlsbad Lexus. Kearney Mesa Lexus said the Clunk was "just something I would have to live with, I did after all buy a truck". :(
