Regards,
07 LC, 222k miles, overall great shape.
A year ago at a gas station, ran into the issue first time- everything normal through key insertion, AC on, but when i turn to start everything shuts off. Unhooking the battery, rehooking solved the issue.
Came up again this week, i can get...
Mine was rebuilt by Certified Transmission, came with a 3yr/100k warranty. Failure was due to Transmission being out of fluid, friction tore up the gears.
I had a cracked radiator where the transmission fluid cycles into the radiator. This created a very slow leak which I did not spot and it caught up to me. By the time I changed out the fluid it was toast. Lots of metal chunks in the pan. So, I am an idiot for not noticing in time and killing my...
Just went through this, cost me 5k total. They ended up taking out my A750f, sending it in, having it rebuilt, and installing the rebuilt one right back in- so technically, I still have the same transmission ha ha. Came with a good warranty, truck is driving great.
2001, tan. Bought it from my parents in 2006 and have been driving it all across the US since. It’s been in Georgia 3 times, Alaska, Hawaii, Colorado, Kansas twice, and now going to FLorida in June.
Seeing as to how no one answered, I can tell you what I did- scrape all the dry rot foam off, get yourself an 18x32 sheet of dynamat and cover the whole box. But if your bass sucks or is blaring that old speaker is probably shot.
I pulled the trigger on a Blue 07 LC two years ago, it had about 145k when I bought it. It was in cherry condition and I paid for it ha ha, but I love it. Still can't bring myself to part with my 01 LX470, even though it is in rough shape. Maybe I'll get around to restoring it after I retire in...
Cheers,
looking for the wiring harness that runs from ECU back to the right rear speed sensor etc- no idea part number. Muffler rusted out, and melted the wires up there into glop- now I have xmas tree lights on my dash. Thanks!
My two cents, if you are patient and set up alerts on car guru's and the like, you can find a well priced ride with lower mileage that has been babied- I found one in ATL with 200k that had been back to the same dealer every 5k miles for 18 years. Drove like a champ. Always check for rust!!
Many thanks to folks in the iH8mud, and Pucker 5. I am about 75% through the install, the "how to" from Lex&Rex was extremely helpful- here...

OK, ordered a simple DSP made for converting factory head units to amps- AudioControl LC7i. This is my gameplay, tell me what I am doing wrong!
1) remove door panels, seats, etc.
2) remove JBL amp and Speakers
3) plug Factory inputs to DSP
4) Run RCA cables from DSP to Pioneer Amp
5) Run new...
Alright, back from Florida where the housing market is outta control and ready to get this upgrade going. For the smart guys out there, what do I need to use an aftermarket amp (Pioneer GM-D9705) with the factory Head unit? Is there a metro harness that makes this easy or do I need to cut the...
Found some nice speakers at a steep discount today- so far, we have:
Pioneer GM-D9705 5 channel amp
Hertz MPX 165.3 PRO for rear doors
Hertz MLK 1650.3 components for the front
Next up, sub and DSP and should have everything we need.
