  1. If your hood rod clip hasn't broke yet, it probably will. Thats the only widespread prob I know of.
  2. Yea, NO LSD! :( oh well! Gotta get one! The whole spinnin one wheel thing is kinda lame!
  3. I just bought my 04 5spd IS, and I was wondering, how can I tell if it came with an LSD? It Is completly stock as far as I know!
  4. I dont think I can find the orig. owner. I bought the car in Upstate SC, from a lot, and the one owner is in florida! It was owned by a corporate business, so thers no telling where the keys ended up!
  5. Thanks for the reply and the info Smooth 1! Do you have any Idea what the code would look like (how many numbers, numbers and letters?, spaces, dashes)?
  6. Hello, and welcome to the LOC! Unfortunately, he his telling you the truth. It's not for the keyless entry, it's for the security system in the ignition system. The code in the key has to match the code in the ECU for the security system to allow it to start. Have you looked in the owners manual and all around the car real good for the code? When the car was sold new, there is a business size card in a plastic bag with an emergency key. It's usually in the owners manual leather binder in one of the pockets. You might want to check in the trunk in the side panels and around there also. People can stuff things away and forget they were ever there. Go thru the glove box and check around for that code first. If you have that code, then you just need to have the key programmed and then you'll have a new master key again.
  7. I just bought my first Lexus, an 04 black on black is300 5spd with 37000 miles! Love the car so far, but It didnt come with a master key. I called Lexus and told him what I wanted and he says brace yourself! in order to reprogram a new remote you need the old one! he sys i have to replace my "computer"! lexus will do that one time only for free, I just have to buy two new keys at $320 a peice! Then pay to have the new "computer" installed, the new keys cut and programed comeing to about $1000! For keyless entry? So this is my question to you, does anyone know any other way to program a key without the old one, and if not, does anyone have an aftermarket alarm/keeyless entry system that they would recomend? Being So new to the forums and the car any feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
