  1. Is your foot on the brake pedal? Have you reprogrammed it by having the door open , in park and your foot off the pedal.
  2. lol , glad to hear, i know us wreckers have a few for a few hundred. I am surprised it did not make a bunch of warning light issues after replacing it since you drove it with no cluster.
  3. I doubt it is a problem as the gs and es both have normal sized calipers but without someone having the wheels already it will be hard to tell . Also the offsets of the es are always higher than the gs as it is made to be sporty . So the es wheels will stick in more.
  4. I don't have a sc either but it should not be too hard for a good tech as it is the simpliest job around. I replaced my LS ones with universals in about 10 minutes a side using a wrench not even the proper o2 socket which i have.
  5. You need to have good eyes and tapp them to look for a loose bulb , Also it is for the brake lights only not the park lights.
  6. lol 265/70R18 would probably be a better fit
  7. Have a shop that deals with Lexus have a look at it , you may just have bad strut bars, sway bars or a control arm causing it to get unbalanced.
  8. the bolt pattern and hub fit , the x factor for caliper clearance i have no idea.
  9. It is easy to change , I would have it checked for leaks to see if you have a problem , you may have worn busings and the shocks are fine.
  10. Glowing red , it is running rich, both red means it is happening to both side where the firing sequence is off. For it to happen to both sides make sure you have spark. It has nothing to do with the cats they are reacting to the rich fuel mixture.
  11. For such a newer car i would spend the money on the air suspension repairs it is well worth a well designed system. You could throw regular shocks and springs on the LS and not need a conversion kit. They do that so you send them your old stuff and they resell it for a massive profit.
  12. Probably an oil drip on the back of the engine onto the exhaust. check the valve covers.
  13. In essence it works but i am not sure i want to run moonshine hydrogen in my car just yet. I'll wait until billy bob and jethro get it right for Ma's tractor . Hydrogen has been used in a bmw 7 series since 2000 in germany but they have no fill stations for it. It also has a short distance from what i remember.
  14. Turning the wheel left to right should aleviate the problem. Ask them to lube it for you.
  15. Sorry i put the wonrg conversion. I get 39mpg highway (6-8 Liters per 100km) and 21 (11 L per 100 km city).
  16. The fog lights are different so are the brackets but the bulbs are the bolts are the same.
  17. When i ran lease maturities for Mercedes that would never happen , but their are some lazy guys around. They also had a strict but forgiving policy that if it was smaller than a credit card it was free. Leave it dirty and raining if anything if you want to hide it. Underground parking is great also. Otherwise contact the leasing company and get their policy online if possible .
  18. How much did the parts you ordered cost from Carson. Also The mounts isolate the vibrations not cause them. The reason you have vibes is because something is not firing properly. I had a similar vibration noticeable most under highway cruising. The vibe on mine was getting more and less in a smooth wave back and forth. It is similar to the computer rich /lean mixture made to test the cat and o2 sensors. After changing the 2 after cat sensors the vibe has gone away even at idle . It is firing much stronger and getting better gas mileage. So even though i could use new engine mounts it is the effect not the cause.
  19. The things at the top of the rear window are called roof spoilers. They are a japanese type acessory and not easily available. Their is no real easy power for it that i know of because i have a 94 ES and am not up on ES mods much. An exhaust is not great sounding on the 1mz-fe as it is underpowered and droans . Yes , that is my LS in the pics on air.
  20. Odd the 08's here are 342hp, as well as being GS460 models not just 430 engines which were also 300++ hp before.
  21. We all know i love seafoam , i do find most people do use it so it does nothign as the engine is too hot and it evaporates. i have the cable added to a 3.5mm jack and manually switch it from the changer to my xm and ipod. Works great and sounds better.
  22. The solenoid that releases the steering wheel from being locked until you press the start button is acting up. It may need to be lubed or you parked with the wheels angled and it caused the wheel to push hard against it.
  23. As far as i remember the left /bank 1 and right /bank 2 are looking towards the engine from the point of the transmission.
