    Newly purchased 07 LX470 in Portland

    I got the car back on Friday. The brake noise was some metal pieces in or around the parking brake mechanism. Those were cleaned up, and the noise is gone. The burning smell was residual oil/grease burning off of the exhaust (probably from the service I had the seller do before it was picked...

    Hands free/Bluetooth phone issues - mic malfunction

    Does anyone else have an issue with their hands free Bluetooth phone connection where you can make a call and hear the person on the other end, but they can't hear you? I'm wondering where the mic is located, and if the issue is that it's not functioning. My Lexus Link has been disabled, as...

    The infamous clunk

    What's the issue with just permanently leaving the center differential locked? I've got the same clunk in my 2007 and it's annoying. I can deal with the clunk shifting gears with the selector, however sitting at a stoplight and releasing the brakes, or coasting and then applying throttle, I'm...

    No noise at idle. Only when moving. That's why I'm thinking it is brake related.

    Newly purchased 07 LX470 in Portland

    Thanks man. I'm fine with spending $2-7K right off the bat. Looking forward to getting it in for maintenance and then enjoying the hell out of it! BTW, then reason I wanted final years is for the increased HP and 5 speed transmission. I also like the minor design tweaks for the final year...

    First 6 years in New Jersey, then Virginia until end of 2020. I am assuming most of the rust issues were related to NJ, but that’s just a guess.

    Agreed on the strategy. I wanted a very specific vehicle and looked for quite a while. Wasn’t able to find anything on the west coast or “non rust belt” states. I hope the brake squealing is a minor issue as well.

    Yes, I forgot to mention the exhaust. In the pictures the dealer sent me of the car, it had what looked like the original exhaust. They definitely replaced it, and didn't tell me or ask me. That really bothers me. And I hope that there's not a catalytic converter issue now. I'm trying not...

    Newly purchased 07 LX470 in Portland

    I recently purchased a 128K mile 2007 LX from a dealer in the northeast. The car was transported back and finally arrived yesterday. It spent the first 6 years of its life in New Jersey, and then was in Virginia until early this year. Timing belt was done at 105K miles in 2018. Cosmetically...
