  1. info i had was that this car was made in canada. maybe parts were made in japan. sprayed with the cosmoline and shipped.
  2. smells like a chemical. not sure how to describe, it gets in our throats too .
  3. my 2007 rx 350 has the same problem . we get headaches and nausea and it is a chemical smell. we saw other people on this site with rx 330's were getting sick too. Lexus has done nothing to help us except try to clean off with brake fluid cleaner, not a bit of help and we have kids in the car getting sick too. very disappointed with lexus. others on the site say it is cosmoline and it will burn off. but ours has not burned off in over 9,000 miles so we try to not drive the car and keep trying to get lexus to do something. i even purchased an extended warrenty for 7 years we have another lexus and not a problem and had 2 toyota's before that. hope someone can find out what to do to get lexus to step up to the plate for us. as a loyal customer. they should be doing more for us. dcj
  4. thank you, lexus tried to remove with brake cleaner, changed the filter twice and drove 9,000 miles and wont go away what next? dcj yes we bought it new have another lexus and never had this happen dcj
  5. i also continue to deal with an odor on my 2007 rx 350 we bought it new and dealer said it was cosmoline, makes us sick too. wish it was just with the moon roof open but it is all the time. i was told that the cosmoline was put on the parts prior to manufacture and was not removed from the parts that noone can see. looking for a resolve too. was told put air on recirculate, fresh air, drive with windows open, it will go away etc, after 9,000 miles has not gone away. still looking for help. just the rx 350. no problems with our other lexus, different model .dcj

  9. I have the 07 RX350 w/8 K miles. About 4 wks ago musting smell started coming from HVAC vents, progressivley worsening. Took to dealership last Thursday. They do not have an answer. Went to dealership today, car is totally stripped inside ,only driver seat and parts of dash remain. I am throughly PO'D. I am a non-smkr and and very neat with my cars. Basically I've told Lexus that I don't want it back. I know that it will never be the same. Read some blogs and found that this musty smell is toxic. Let me know what your situation is. I would appreciate it.
