    Undercarriage / Underbody Spray - Surface Rust

    Tahoe is correct. I am a bit puzzled about the rust myself. 20 days a year in Tahoe for a CA vehicle I’ve had since new and rust seem a bit odd.

    Unacceptable Brake Performance of the Toyota Land Cruiser Lexus LX 570

    Agree with others having problems with 200 brakes. It is not my foot. I have been driving for 36 years and this is not my first car or brake change. They have generally lasted from 30-65k miles depending on where I have lived (hills or flats). The 200 brakes are weak, and wobble after a...

    Added Rear Seat Media Player LX/LC

    The rear seat entertainment center is cumbersome and with limited functionality, thanks to the inability to connect a USB drive or stick that will read movies, or give full selection control to the rear passengers. I found the following solution, for under $50, which works perfectly. - Micca...

    What Is the Purpose of This Section of the Tail Light on LX 570 LEDs?

    Can you see in you LC if there is a removable LED module? If possible to remove, I would not mind adding additional rear lights. I just cannot stand form without function. Thank you for solving the mystery.

    What Is the Purpose of This Section of the Tail Light on LX 570 LEDs?

    What Is the Purpose of This Section of the Tail Light on LX 570 LEDs?

    This area of the LED tail light (picture) does not light up. It is not brake, turn signal, or reverse lights. I turned on fog lights too just in case like some European cars there is a brighter red fog light on the driver side. Nothing lights up. Is it part of a non-US LED turn signal? Is it...

    Unacceptable Brake Performance of the Toyota Land Cruiser Lexus LX 570

    Thanks. Any idea why they warp. I have other vehicles that have gone 100k plus with rotors in great shape. Every Lexus Toyota I have had begins to warp after 40-60k miles.

    Unacceptable Brake Performance of the Toyota Land Cruiser Lexus LX 570

    Is there any good brake upgrade at under $3k for LX? Are Tundra brakes the same or better, and can fit LX? I have an R500 and X5d. Both have far better response and total stopping distance. My LX performs per spec, but I am not happy with the total braking performance. Thank you.
