  1. I have the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 245/45 17". Good Tire for only the first 4000 miles and then it becomes rough after that. Not worth the $1,000 / set. There are better ones out there like the Pirelli NZero and the Continental ContiExtreme.
  2. I know they made an invisible car for the Aston Martin as seen in the James Bond Film. I did not know they made one for the Lexus. Hmmm...
  3. http://www.lexus-parts.com/partlist.asp?Su...D=22&ModelID=10 They're 5 miles from where I live.
  4. Gas cap is tight. I even exchanged gas cap with my es, reset it and the light still comes on. Does anyone else have any suggestions?
  5. I was driving my car and the check engine light turned on. I reset it and after 15 miles it came on again. So I went to Autozone (they check it for free) and the OBD code was P0172. Car is a 98 GS400 60k Miles, with K&N Filter. I just bought the car a week ago. Their computer readout said "The fuel system for Bank 1 was too Rich. (bank one identifies the location of Cylinder #1, While Bank 2 Identifies the cylinders on the opposite bank." The guy at autozone said the O2 sensors might be bad. O2 sensor ran $180 each. I've checked and Chilton does not make a manual. So I went to ebay and bought a Lexus CD service manual. (waiting for it to arrive) Has anyone else had this problem? I would like to fix it myself because I've done it in all my cars. I had no drop in fuel mileage, and the car accelerates just fine and no hessitation. Idles at 500RPM> Is that normal? I've done a google search for P0172 Code P0172 can be caused by several problems: 1) Fuel line pressure 2) Injector Blockage 3) O2 sensor malfunction 4) Manifold absolute pressure sensor 5) Engine coolant temp. sensor
