    Engine check light fault code

    Hi. My 05 LX470 every few hundred miles keeps throwing a code for the right bank catalytic converter. The cat on that side is new but the engine check light persists in coming on. Its clears but comes back in a few hundred miles. The OBD says its "stored". Has anyone experienced anything...

    I miss mine too. It was a regular cab with insanely low miles. There was just something about all that mechanical stuff going on that endeared it to me.

    Hitch bolt torque specification

    Perfect, thank you very much. I just printed it for the file. I did look at a diagram before I ordered the part, but it was different and showed the rear axle as well. If there were torque values on it, the print was so small my 82 year old eyes couldn't read it. The assist is very much...

    Hitch bolt torque specification

    Hello out there. I have a 05 LX470. The truck has a towing package (harness, radiator) but no separate frame rail mounted hitch. The mount for a hitch is on the rear crossmember of the frame behind the access plate on the rear bumper. I need the torque specs for the 4 mounting bolts that...

    Newbie with an LX470

    Hi Robby, congratulations. She's a beauty. I too after advancing years gravitated to a Lexus LX470. I'm loving it. Probably overkill for me, but I have to respect its heritage and build quality. Mine has a towing package (radiator, harness, plug) but no separate frame mounted hitch. I just...

    New (possible) 100 owner - question

    I've seen worse. dirt and soil but not a lot of rust. It'll clean up nice but there are so many other things to be looking at. See earlier post by "vargoneti". Its extensive but its all there and a good road map to follow.

    Hi Nukegoat. No, my 470 didn't have the night view option on it.

    Thank you Hester Sue. Nice to be here. Lord i'm 82 and if I listed all the cars i've had it would probably exceed the letter count for replies. None of them as nice and as Legendary as the Land Cruiser which is the heart of my LX470. I've had plenty of experience with the oldies though...

    Now I have heard that before LOL. I have someone I can rely on who indeed knows the system. I'm beyond off-roading - maybe a ride down our beach once in awhile is the only off roading I'll be doing. If it gets too bad, there's always coil overs.

    Hello Vlad. Tonino here. She's a beauty. I can't speak for the diesel but I'm sure there are plenty of members out there who can. Judging from the miles on the odometer and what I can see in the photos, the undercarriage looks as good as the body shell - no corrosion on any of the fittings...

    New Vehicle

    And thank you. Its one of those "dream" vehicles for me. Been around them for years but never owned one. We had the oldies in South America when I was a young pup, the six cylinder beauties. Couldn't kill them. Anyone with any kind of mechanical common sense could keep them running. They...

    Thank you "Exiled". Advancing age dictated something smoother, quieter and comfy. A little "posh" didn't hurt either.

    Hi All, I gave up my 92 Toyota pickup for a 05 Lexus LX470 in very nice unmolested condition. I therefore will be prowling the forums with renewed interest. Thanks to all for being so unselfish with advice and camaraderie.

    Wheel offset

    Thanks All. I was about to settle for a set of used original 92 vintage alloys but in the end, I opted for a new set of Ultra Type 5051s. It didn't make good sense to spend more on 25+ year old wheels, non mangnafluxed, no warranty etc. I will live happily ever after. Day before the wheels...

    Wheel offset

    Pappy - depth is 4 1/2" with a 7" wheel width If I calculated correctly that equates to 13-14mm positive offset. Going negative 6mm will push the wheel out another 1/4". Thanks for your patience - this is all new to me and I didn't want to make a mistake. Stock offset is zero so -6mm isn't...
