hello,
I found a 2000 Lx470 locally. I noticed when I press the center differential lock during parking and at H gear, the VSC off light came on. Is this normal ? Also a side question, would a 99 Lx470 engine works in 2000 LX470 ?

Hello,
I have a 99 LX470. When I am driving after cold start, I can hear some high pitch noise which increases and decreases with RPM. The noise is still there with both Radio and AC turned off. After driving for a while, I no longer hear the noise. Where else should I check ?
Thanks
