  1. it mgiht be the shop forgot or threw out the anti squeal shims for each pad it needs them or it just needs some slow braking for the first 500 km
  2. hmm i am suer tehre is a little peice of metal in there that is why it is so easy to bend back by hand i found it happens most to cars that are parked front end first and tehn scrape the concreate stoppers pulling the front ends up and out trying to get over them i just pushed mine up and it stayed fine ever since
  3. springs are usually 400 and 150 labour
  4. i was sure on mine the led stayed lit until armed then flashed when active
  5. wow from all that i must say you have alot of work to do but it will look amazing after get ready for the extra compliments :o and i must say i am more than impressed on the way you looked over the threads to find an amazing ( but tedious) application to peice together
  6. http://us.lexusownersclub.com/forums/show....t/ST/f/7/t/3683 this topic only states the listed changes and the other board pretty much has the smae type of info from what i have seen but i could be mistaken
  7. spirit levels ? never heard of them before but the little glass levels with green fluid is used to level the adjustment of the headlights you have to park the car on a perfectly flat surface then use one of the adjusting knobs to make the light shine up or down which tilts the level and moves the air bubble into the center to make the light level other cars have little nubs on the headlight clear housing usually 3 for each low beam that encompases the headlight a tool attaches to it that is basically a level also and readjsuts the headlight the same way
  8. who has the new 330 ? did they not only release the details last week or so ?
  9. are you asking for advice? start by saying the year? and be as descriptive as possible on all details it might be a crack in the intake hose but need more info
  10. get a motor vac injector cleaner it uses a machine and high pressuure with a solution to clean the crap out of the engine and everything else usually 100 for it but after you are almost guarnteed to pass any emmision test
  11. real good advice todd only other possibility is a wiring short but in both cars and tehy are toyotas
  12. sorry to sounds so anal but when makeing a topic title try and be more specific like bad news i got in an accident it leaves the topic pertaining to almost anything latley members have made detramental to erad sounding topics like to BOMBSQUAD leaves alot to learn just to find it is a members name thanks
  13. there is a little parking paul inside the trannny that locks it up when put into park basically if it makes a clunking noise when you did that then it just damages a littel of the material but should be ok as it does not mix with the tranny fluid for some reason i can take my key out while the car is still in nueatral or drive most of the time kind of a safety defect but it doesn't bother me to much
  14. no simple or cheap solution usually needs a new cluster for about a grand ther eare some place that do fix them for less than 500 if they flicker the they are still working if you put the dimmer switch one notch down it should help the needles from overheating and keep them on normally
  15. lexus won't warrenty an alignment but will fix something if it is causing bad wear
  16. when was your last oil change and air filter, spark plugs i might also try giving it the highway run first and not let it idle for longer than 10 minutes or sit aldo try not to use premium gas but regualr for the emission test
  17. the trd supercharger works on the es i didn't find the cmary muc faster with it but it still had to be dyno tuned for the s-fac may have slight clearance issues with the hood but i am not sure you can see by my sig i have done alot but the car isn't really made to do alot more the exhaust and intake helped a good bit bbsal got a jet chip but never got it dyno'd yet to see if there was any positive results as many other owners have tried jet and said it was worse than before
  18. ok if it is after 20-30 minutes then there is aproblem it might be internal of the tranny if the switch is not opening inside ot open the flow of hat tranny fluid to the cold part as it stay locked until warm when i the last time you had the fluid changed are you using the ect button?
  19. welcome to the club wanda should get a hold of lexus magazine they might do a story of you and 3 lexus atleast you would get the 3 cars detailed for free
  20. i personally think injen is !Removed! don't waste your money besides the one pictured is not going to work for a camry so the least tehy could have done is show the proper one
  21. glad you learned something i find this site great for little bits of info for problems that i never really paid attention to all lexus modles have the annoying high idle, it is just to stop premature wear just remember take everything people say ( myself included ) with a grain of salt as everyone think they know it all ( again myself included )
  22. good to hear you got a second opinion and one that also was along my thoughts save the 1600 for repairs in 6 years
  23. no need to be sorry i was just letting you know some members are unaware of the features of the boards i am interested though why wont it let you pm him? tell me so we can help you resolve the issue in case it affects other members as well thanks
  24. i saw the orignal post but as you already tried another unit contorller my only though was that so it is left to tracing the wires back to the motor the weirdest part is the power for the passanger side is run through the master controller before it gets to it so i am totally lost sorry i could not be of more help just wanted to let you know that members are reading it i guess they are as lost with it as me
