On some cold winter mornings I get in the car and set the AC to AUTO and set the PASS. or DRIVER side to anywhere in the low to mid 70's and I get nothing. The fan only comes on if I reduce the temp setting to MAX COLD or mid 60's. The only way to solve the problem has been to manually set the climate control to MAX HEAT and set the fan speed to full getting lots of warm air moving through the cabin. After about 5 minutes of this I can set the climate control to AUTO and it works properly. Any suggestions of things to look at or check prior to breaking the bank and taking it to the dealer. This is a 99 LS400.

Saw this picture of some 17 inch wheels that I thought were Platinum Edition wheels, but after close inspection found them not to be the 16 x 7 Plats'. Does anyone know what these are or where to get them. If they are not Lexus OEM do they clear the big LS calipers to fit on an LS 400? I think I found the picture on this site in the gallery. Help from the Lexus veterans is appreciated.
