people said my subwoofer would severely limit my cargo capacity but i have 8 17” tires, 4 still mounted on wheels in here no issue and still got the bass bumping 😅

I was doubtful it was the fan clutch because i’ve never seen or heard one go bad before but it seems like it was the culprit. the fan noise has def gone down after replacing

discovered some weird clicking noise that i heard at idle. took me about a week of listening trying to figure out where it came from. at first i thought it was the fan but couldn’t be sure then i thought i have 130k and never changed the water pump maybe the propeller was rattling ended up...

yeah it def sucked, worst part is i think the parking brake still isn’t adjusted correctly even though i took it off and made sure to get that “drag” when putting the rotors back on. I still feel it creep if i put the parking brake on before putting in park

nothing special lately but did change all 4 brake pads, rotors and shoes/hatdware doing the shoes is the biggest PITA everywhere but on the plus side this will hopefully be the only time i ever have to do it

Def no issue with noise around here lol, I moved from VA where there was definitely more enforcement up here in MD you see people running open headers daily driving right past the troopers and local cops lol. here is a short clip I made this morning

i would be in for a driver side box depending on the price

welp got bored and decided to go all in. cut the muffler and resonator off started with the resonator and notice 0 change so kept going definitely a noticeable difference without the muffler i missed the throaty sound of an exhaust so it’s definitely appealing to me but since this is a...

4 months and 2 trans drain and fills later confirmed that the “noise” is majority gone. So def think it had to do with the complete trans flush that i did at lexus 27k ago at 100k never thought that would cause issues but i can’t explain why after the first drain and fills later confirmed last...

i wish it were but it’s definitely RPM related because it’s even in park/neutral that it happens

Chasing this annoying inconsistent grumbling, roaring noise under 2k RPM with the occasional slip, I think im leaning towards it being related to be taking it to Lexus for a trans flush 25k ago at 100k. I am going to be attempting a diy drain and fill on the trans tomorrow in hopes that maybe...

Turns out its every gear and sport mode did not help other than to confirm that it's in every gear. Guess ill have to dig some more as my issues doesn't appear to be the same as this one.

In the time that I've been experiencing it I haven't paid enough attention to tell which gears it's in but I will be sure to tonight. I wish I had a CEL to tell me a definitive culprit

So I have read through this entire thread and while I think my issue is distinct, I may also be going down the same path. Looking for some input if "transmission slipping" under 2kRPM is a symptom anyone was having prior to the CEL light coming on. I constantly have a slipping and sort of metal...

im not 100% sure but I think id have a better time trying to grab one of those than a stripped out button head
