Hi, I have a 1996 LS400 and the Steering Rack Solenoid filter screen was dammaged while cleaning it, does anybody know where I can get this filter or if I can make something similar to it? Help will be very appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks! I called Sewell Lexus here in Dallas and they advised to use Toyota ATF 4, so I went ahead and did it. Thanks again for the help, In appreciate it.

Hi fellas, I own a 1996 LS 400 and it is low on power steering fluid, I checked the manual and it calls for Dexron II or III, I went to a Lexus delaer and they said I could put regular power steering fluid, I have been browsing through the forum and almost everybody talks about ATF......went to Auto Zone and they only sell ATF Dex/Merc. Please help me, I need to make a desicion as to what king of fluid I should put on my girl. Thanks!

I need to replace the battery.

The lighter wires shouldn't matter Are you sure the security is set on the radio ? I would say probably not, 99.9% of lexus owners never set the security on. I have never come across a headunit that was locked yet. Welcome to the club Thanks so do I follow the intructions on the manual to set up the sec code for the first time?

Quick questions for you all, 1st question: I purchased my 1994 GS300 and had to fix the lighter on the console but the question is do the connectors that go on the lighter it self have polarity? one of them is black and the other white. 2nd question: I want to replace my battery but don't have the radio code, I called Lexus but they said they would have to connect it to the computer to retrieve the code. I don't believe this, what do I do?

Hi everybody, Just purchased a 1994 GS300 with 165K for 2700 dollars, just wanted to know what are some of the common issues with this model. Thank you all.

Great I knew I could count on you fellas. I will not use none of that stop leak stuff. Best regards! :)

Ok got it, Didn't mean to agitate people in here, yes I'm new at the forum and one of these days I will be wise like you guys. Remember this is my first Lexus and it took me 14 years to achieve my dream of owning one so I want to learn as much as possible on these awesome vehicles. Best regards. :)

Hi guys, bothering you again, I have a leak and want to use some stop leak treatment until I have enough money to find it and fix it but the 95 LS 400 does not have a radiator fill neck, it only has an expansion reservoir, can i put the stop leak in here and can you guys recommend something? Thanks in advance.

Thank you all, unfortunately I'm not sure if this is an interference engine or not still.

Hi guys, How accurate is this link from Gates.com explaining this is not an interference engine: http://www.gates.com/part_locator/index.cfm?location_id=3598 So if my timing belt brakes would it hurt the valves and what not? I don't want to get ripped off by the mechanics since I'm learning as much as possible on these beautiful cars. Thanks in advance to all of you and happy Easter!

If you have a multimeter, you can test the resistance of your Spark Plug wires and igntion coils, and see if they are within spec... :) Thanks will do.

Thank you all, I will follow your instructions and keep you posted. Best regards.

Sorry did not mean to sound like a smart !Removed!, I don't know anything about codes but after researching I found what you guys posted, I have not changed wires nor plugs, should I do that first before I invest in coils what do you guys suggest and where can i buy at decent price. Thank you all. Ps what is a cap?

What do you mean????Are you asking me to goggle them?

Hi guys, new guy here again bothering you, please help me with the following codes: P0304, P0300, P0303, P0305, and P0307. Cleaned my throttle per LXLS.com and changed oil filter, oil, and air filter since I bought it 2 months ago. Thank you all.

Guys thank you so much for the tips given. I really want to know why is there a sound of water through the dashboard? When I start it in the morning I can hear water so I don't know if it's accumulated because of a clogged hose or something. Any help will be appreciated.

You guys are awesome I will start pin pointing.

Hi everybody, I'm new to the forum and I'm really exited to be part of a very knowledgeable clan. My 95 LS 400 last time I checked it at Auto Zone due to the check engine light on two codes came up, I cannot remember the codes but one said misfiring and the other speed sensor. The vehicle needs to warm up in order for the Cruise Control to work, also when it's cold and I try switching from D to 3rd gear and the light on the gear selector or indicator i doesn't light up nor recognizes 3rd until it's warmed up for several minutes. Does this make sense? also when I start it up for the first time I can hear like a bunch of water running through the dashboard like it accumulated. sorry if I'm not explaining my self well, just bought this car for 2500 here in Dallas and it has 290.000 miles, the car runs very well and the body is intact. Any help and tips are appreciated.
