Thank you!

To make sure - Lexus warranty coverage: - is transferrable to new owner - basic is 48 months/50,000 miles - from day of original purchase - powertrain is 72 months / 72,000 miles and covers engine/transmission/drive shafts/axles/hub bearings/differentials (all 3) Correct? Thank you!

Am I being paranoid? Car checks out on paper (at least fine): 2022 GX 460, 43,000 miles, oil changes at Valvoline about every 5,000 miles, then oil and differential service on 6/17/25 and.... car traded in. Could something go wrong with differential fluid change? Discovered an issue? I had a...

It is hot here in North East (might be the reason, but I doubt). Getting from grocery store - brake light goes on. Brakes seem to be working. So I figure/hope - brake fluid level is a bit low so I will top it off at home. Midway on freeway - ABS light , Stability off, VSC off and ! turn on...

Got the thread. Would FC-280PT-22125 motor work in 07 LC? It has brass collar on the shaft. I did not take a door apart yet and looking at Toyota parts - looks like 2003-2007 have the same actuator part number. Thank you!

Odd.... Most of the time - when locking / unlocking with remote - all doors but the driver' locks/unlocks. Once in a while works for a driver' door too. Locking with a button inside - same effect. Locking with a key in the door or manually flipping the lock from inside - works. I hear a very...

Thank you for feedback! Current plan is to replace failed shock. Will post the results.

Got a dilemma on my hands... Truck was riding hard for some time. Seating fairly low in the back. Mechanic checked in February - said no leaks, height control sensor was replaced last summer. On Tuesday - making U-turn in a neighborhood getting on a bit of a hill on a side of the road - loud...

Thank you for feedback! Appreciate your thoughts! Sounds like I need to test drive GX550 and, perhaps, GX460. Chateau pattern does look nice!

I have 07 LC100 and GX470. One is already taken over by my daughter and my son will get LC100. I had both for long time. Do regular maintenance and overall am pretty happy with both. Which leaves me with a question... What should I get to replace it. Given that kids will be off to college in...

I got the bubbles coming from the outer edge - between pillar and the molding. Should I try to put a sealant along the edge - vs. removing (and possibly breaking ) a windshield? Even if this is a temporary solution - who know when I have a broken windshield and need to replace it anyway.

Thank you for advice. Sunroof drainage is clear - checked it back in summer when first leak happened. Would you use shopvac to create pressure inside?

Landcruiser, 2007, 220k+, had a leak with water coming from the top of the front passenger pillar during rain in summer. My mechanic put adhesive from inside and said it might help, but no guarantees. He was not sure where the water exactly coming from. In his opinion - if it would not work...

Thank you!

as an update - it was broken c-clip on front passenger side. as @Trunk Monkey said. My mechanic was happy to learn something new. What is Toyota part number for it? I would like to replace another side. Thank you!
