    Does your back seat rattle?

    Lexol might work. I've read all the advice here and, as a first step, used (very) liberal amounts of my trusty old 303AP (from a spray bottle, I buy this stuff by a gallon for my boat) - spraying it on the seats and plastic, all over and under. Eliminated 99.9% of the squeak, and I am ecstatic...

    Does your back seat rattle?

    The squeak - coming out of somewhere in the middle/2nd row seats - is making me insane. Need to figure this out before I drive off the road. It's not the headrests. Only when the seats are empty. And tilting the seats back does not help in my case, that much I know. I thought I would check in...

    Pedal Commander or other throttle controller thoughts?

    Very good point, we are at 400’ in MO but getting ready to trailer to Lake Powell. I don’t think 93 is even available in Utah! —

    LX570 Tow Report

    @TeCKis300 Thanks for this fine recommendation, can't believe how long I put up with inferior aux mirror(s)... AND those come with their own bag/soft case which is very nice. They are sold as a pair, which I somehow failed to notice when ordering (it does say: "TWIN PACK", lol), cost me extra...

    Pedal Commander or other throttle controller thoughts?

    I haven’t done any very long tows with the PC installed yet, but a couple of short ones and I didn’t even think about this. The shifting is more predictable as the throttle response curve is linear and predictable so it feels more in control with no surprise shifts, so to speak, if that makes...

    Pedal Commander or other throttle controller thoughts?

    I have had my 2017 LC200 updated per TSB, it took two trips and some persuasion but they did it. The difference is noticeable. There is still some overrevving in 1st but mostly when cold, and I'm thinking it is actually the torque management issue. But with the PC - the truck is just a...

    2018 LC200 KDSS???

    What are the symptoms associated (caused by) discharged or undercharged KDSS? Reading this thread - I maybe wrong - I think I have seen regular bolts, not allen heads, in those actuators... I better double check... --

    LX570 Tow Report

    Thank you for all the useful info you post! Would you recommend this mirror? I'm looking for a clip-on extension for towing with my 2017 LC200. I have had several cheapo units in the past with straps (key word: several, lol). TIA I think I found the answers...

    Anyone Done An "Amphibious Landing-Style" Boat Launch?

    Okay, not exactly, but close. The joys of Midwest boating in our muddy rivers. Long story short, as my Meramec River MO marina flooded with some 30ft of water above "normal" I needed to pull my boat out... w/all launch ramps in the area under water. Well, with ramps gone I had to get creative...

    Unintended lift with air bags?

    Quick update, after a couple days of riding on "empty" (depressurized) bags I seem to be back to the truck's regular height, measuring slightly below 22", somewhere around 21 3/4" (from the center of the wheel to the fender's lip) - so all is good! I do not have a pressure gauge that would seem...

    Quick Poll: LC 200-What Octane Do You Use?

    That is also what DAP tuners claim, new Tundra? ECU/ECM pull timing with fuel grade/octane. I believe it to be correct. There is no question premium 93 octane fuel generates discernibly more power as compared to regular 87 (in my 2017 LC). I’ve done this now over and over again to...

    Unintended lift with air bags?

    Okay, that is helpful, thank you! I just ran out and measured this height - I'm at about 22"! This is after I released some leftover air so the bags were not empty, were still pressurized after I did a bunch of driving today. If I have it right, I might have dropped almost an inch compared to...

    Unintended lift with air bags?

    This is VERY helpful! @linuxgod Thank you for prompt advice, much appreciated! No lift, my truck is basically stock (other than wheels are powdercoated black,lol) I'll double check with the guys who did the install, it is a first class shop and they already said to bring the truck back if it...

    Unintended lift with air bags?

    I had the Firestone coil-rite kit (W23760464) installed, and noticed an approximately 1” maybe 2” rear “lift” (even with no air pressure in the bags). Any suggestions? TIA! I love the kit, but need to be able to get the truck down to the original height, 1-2” lower, as I started hitting the...

    200 towing - LX570 or LC?

    Thanks a bunch for writing this up! I had the bags installed by Brad at M.T. Shiele in St. Louis, great guys (thanks to @mmbirtcher for the recommendation for this shop!). --

    Pedal Commander or other throttle controller thoughts?

    Same here. My second and third impressions: I don’t want to be without it. This thing makes you appreciate how much the factory settings suck. Mine stays in “S” +3 now, I think. Easiest thing to adjust. Very intuitive, very pleasant. —

    Jowett Performance Filter Housing with Fumoto drain valve

    Me too! Do you also sell the fumoto valve for the oil pan? I’m interested in purchasing both.
