    2000 LX470 Trailer Harness Replacement

    I am with @CanyonLX I took the driver’s side taillight out. I do not see the converter. I see the seatbelt and rear window motor behind the housing. I follow the 4 pin adapter and it seems to merge with a thicker wire loom and vanishes into somewhere. Any help would be nice. I have a...

    90915-YZZD3 vs YZZD1

    Going to buy the proper filter. Was thinking of going with Denso, but I will research the forum to see if there’s something better.

    90915-YZZD3 vs YZZD1

    Been over a year since I ordered. So probably too late for that. I wish I had checked earlier.

    90915-YZZD3 vs YZZD1

    I ordered from Amazon, what I thought was the proper LX470 filter as advertised. When I received it, it was Lexus/Toyota YZZD1 filter. Apparently they are pposed the exact same spec except the length is longer on our D3s. The LS400, LS430 and a LX470 use the D3 filter. Bad idea to...

    New steering wheel installed LX470

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/282885134783#rwid They didn't have choices. I just ordered it. Steering wheel feels so much better. Not perfect color, but for the price, I am a happy camper.

    BT45-TOY installed on 2002 LX

    Installed the system. I am impressed. Few imperfections bc the voice prompts are very loud compared to the music when a telephone call arrives. I turned this feature off. Not sure what the differences are with the DIP settings. Is there a preferred setting? It seemed to work on all the...

    AHC Fluid change

    I think so. But it could be subjective. I am not sure how to objectively measure it. Old fluid was definitely nasty. Sort of like oil change. I it running smoother after a fresh synthetic oil change... I think so.

    New steering wheel installed LX470

    Searched and read up on steering wheel upgrades in the forum and the web. Finally got it done. 3 hours, only bc I made few mistakes. I could probably do it in 45 min now. Color is slightly off, but much better than my old steering wheel. Wheel is from Taiwan. Great sellar on eBay. About...

    Driveshaft undercarriage grease

    I am about to change my gear oil and grease my driveshaft and all the zerk fittings under the LX470. Found some M1 grease I have from 2011. I think the package even changed on them these days. I read that we may need NLGI 1 and 2 grease. Is it okay to use this on all fittings? Or do I...

    AHC Fluid change

    I followed instructions on the 100 forum and replaced the AHC fluid on my 2002 LX470. Check out the fluid! Looks like cappuccino color at the bottom and dark green up to. I used all 3L. Must buy specific Toyota/Lexus AHC fluid. Used a Turkey Baster to remove fluid from the reservoir...

    Screw on roof/windshield molding???

    I have been reading about windshield wind noise. I decided to scrutinize my LX and what do I find? A screw on one side of the roof. I probably should have left it untouched. But I took it out to see what was going on. I will have to find a stainless steel screw to replace with some...

    Best spark plug

    I went with the advise from the group and I bought the Denso SK20R11. I think I need to buy some U joints for my socket set before I tackle the task.

    Center console retainer metal clip

    Definitely not there. But I found this [angry]: No idea what it is. I thought perhaps it the was gear lockout for the gear selector, but when I removed the tab and pushed down the white button, there was tension pushing down.
