  1. Thanks, Stevie, my last post was confusing -- what I meant is that all is okay now. With 32 psi of air the indicator flashed all the time (assume because of temperature changes in my place) but with 32 psi of nitrogen all is well. Thanks. (BTW, there are no instruction in GX470 manual as to how to reset the TPMS system but I think I saw this option in the service menu).
  2. Many thanks to all. I replaced the tires last weekend, leaving the same pressure sensors, all went just okay. There were a number of suggestions on the forum that the tire pressure per Lexus manuals is lower than needed (32 psi per the manual and people suggested using 34 psi). Really, with 32 psi of air it flashed the low tire pressure indicators. Now I got nitrogen at 32 psi sharp and the indicator does not flash.
  3. www.carfax.com -- normally it's a website for checking the vehicle history via a VIN (for this you have to pay) but they also have references to used cars for sale in many regions of the U.S. (not sure if you have to pay for that one)...
  4. Thank you for your advice. I understand that were I to change the rubber, it should not affect the sensors as they are on the rim and are not attached to the rubber (please correct me if I am wrong). Many thanks again
  5. Hello All, I bought a GX470 2005 in Russia and there are no Lexus centers in my region. The temperature here is around 14 F but the low tire pressure indicator flashs all the time (though the pressure in all 5 wheels is per the manual). I searched in this forum and in the web but failed to find some practical advice on the following: 1. Tips for checking the sensors by yourself. Where are they located? 2. Tips how to change tires on wheels (i.e. remove old tires and put new ones on the same wheel) -- how to do it not to damage the sensors; how to put the same sensors on new tires? I would appreciate any practical advice. Thanks Eugene
  6. Thanks, MAC, looking forward. I wonder, however, if the instruments are the same as for GX470 (press "audio", then "sound", then press up-left, down-feft, up-left and down-left screen corners and tick "override")? Do you know how to increase a bluetooth-connected phone communication volume? Again, in GX470 you'd have to push on "info" and turn on/off your parking lights 4-6 times and then jump to a service menu for "bluetooth"? My friend has LX570 2008 and I wanted to help him fix these...
  7. I would assume if you turn off the dynamic suspension system (or how its called) using the "off" button by the stern up/down controls, it would be a good short-term solution?
