    Lexus GX460

    I wish I was smart enough to answer. Looks like spacers o some sort.... Did you figure it out?

    Lexus GX460

    Yeah, that's where I am. He's driving it while we find the best solution, so at least I don't have a gun to my head. Anyone know if using the manual shifting during this time would do anything to prolong the life? He's watched me use it on the GX and my GS430 so he's familiar using it properly.

    You are exactly correct. First mechanic (I've used for 20 years) must have given me the wrong code. Second shop identified it correctly.

    Lexus GX460

    I'd definitely get it changed. I think it would lessen the odds. Now if it's super high mileage, it could cause a problem and I don't know how Lexus would react to helpiing you out.

    Lexus GX460

    And the worst part is there's one new one available/being built now and won't be ready until 12/29, and that quote is $8500. They sent a quote yesterday for a rebuild at $6,000. Even wrecked trans with 60K-80K miles on them are ~$5600. Amazing. And disappointing. I've owned 3 Lexus' and...

    Lexus GX460

    Actually P0761 and P2714. Everything I've read indicates it needs a new transmission. Disappointing. I really think the "lifetime transmission" is questionable at best. I imagine if we flushed every 60K we wouldn't be seeing these issues.

    Lexus GX460

    Ugh. My mechanic (of 20 years) just scanned my son's 2011 GX 460 and it's throwing P0761 and P2114. He said it needs to go to a transmission shop (ugh again). Just reviving this thread to see if anyone has seen these two codes. My searches (here and on the google) don't show much. Thanks in...

    2011 GX 460 Cold Air Intake

    Dude. Thanks so much for the thoughtful response. Truly appreciate it. Probably saved us a ton of money and time. Will focus on the aesthetics and the ECU tune... Cheers.

    2011 GX 460 Cold Air Intake

    I searched but didn't see much. My son (16) inherited my wife's GX and of course is in the process of de mommifying it. Wheels and tires were first. Much improved look. He's thinking exhaust but I was curious if a cold air intake wouldn't bump him enough. However, when googling about them...

    Stereo bolts! (^*)&%(+_+(_)*

    And just fyi, mine is still going strong 4 years later, with no further problems. Easy to remove after you pull the face panel off.

    Found a new toy in 06 model

    Ignore Hunt. Don't let the 1% ruin it for you. There's an idiot in every crowd. Remember--the law of averages always applies. And I did not know that it had to be left or right for that to work. I too nomally keep mine in the middle, but I thought I was just having sporadic behavior with...

    iPod adapter installed DIY (DICE unit)

    I got a wired FM modulator, a vent clip, ran the 3.5mm jack out of the vent, and love it. Click the on switch by E brake, press button 6 for 87.9, and rev up the ipod/iphone. Sound quality is more than satisfactory for me, and have had no issues in the 3 months I've been using it.

    Looking to upgrade the sound system

    Not actually, Trunk. Finally got the 12v wire run today and got it all in place. Have the on off switch wired to the rear of the E brake. Wired the 12 v wire onto the right socket next to the ash tray, dropped the box to the left of the left vent (nice little opening there), and hid all of...

    Looking to upgrade the sound system

    Hey Pint--Assuming you have the Nak 6 disc, you're are about where I was when I bought the truck. I yanked it, shipped it to a guy in texas who fixed it and shipped it back within a week or so. Now, I'm trying a wired FM modulator, and going to run the wire out of a vent, where I'll mount a...

    iPod to Factory Radio Adaptor

    I know there have been many posts on ipod interfaces, but I have an iphone 3g, and apparently peripheral elec doesn't go back to a 2000 lx with the nakamichi. I'm eyeing Amazon.com: Scosche Audio FM Modulator - Universal: Electronics which has nice reviews and the install should be simple...

    Looking to purchase 2002 LX470

    good purchase. Congrats. Have a 2000 lx 470. Absolutely amazing vehicle. When maintenance is required, it won't be cheap, but it shouldn't be often. I've got 145Kish, and just put new LTX rubber on her, and she is an absolute dream to drive. I'm appreciable of the driving experience...

    Michelin LTX

    Bought a set of LTX for my 2000 LX a few weeks ago. Think it was $780 out the door with a $70 discount from Costco. Very impressed/pleased with the tires. Love driving on a new set. But I guess mine are 16 to your 18s?

    How to tone down the monochomatic look?

    I have the same truck (but 2000). I think if you got the running boards off and put on black sliders, and painted the wheels, you'd be where you want to be. Heck, I've read posting where the LC group wants to move TO the monochromatic look. But yes, without those two items I recommend...
