    Running rough under load

    Hammerheadfishpunch, did you ever get this figured out? I am chasing what appears to be a very similar issue and not having much luck. Currently at the shop and they are not having much luck either.

    VSC TRAC light info

    Nmatcek, Did you ever solve this? I have the same issue and wondering if it is normal. When I engage CDL the VSC OFf light turns on like it is supposed to according to the manual, but the VSC/TRAC light also comes on. After disengaging the CDL, both lights stay on for a little bit, but...

    LX450 Starting Issue Help

    Needs some help figuring this out. Did some searches and read Romer's troubleshooting guide. The LX450 started fine before taking to body shop for some front-end repair from a deer collision. At body shop they removed battery and replaced positive battery connector (old one broke when they...

    No "D" Club

    I'm at 90,000 miles and my cluster D light still works, BUT the light next to the gear selector in center counsel is out, so does that count? I just want to belong. Actually, if I give the selector a thump the light comes back on sometimes. I imagine it is pretty easy to replace, but it is...

    OEM Keyless Entry Key Faubs

    I found two key fobs for my 97 LX450 on ebay. Took them to the Lexus dealer who programed them for free.

    Cruiser won't start

    Sounds like Starter contacts to me, even though banging on the starter didn't work. It can't hurt to replace the starter contacts, which may fix the problem.

    Fooling myself or clear thinking?

    I have owned my LX450 for over two years now and put around 30,000 miles on it during that time. Sad to say, but all I have done is basic oil changes, coolant flush (once) and a few minor repairs, like a new fan clutch, thermostat and such. Overall, it has been an extremely low maintenance...

    Wife Strikes Again - Body Shop Needed in SLC, UT

    Thanks for the offer Box Rocket. The LX450 is the goldish color, but I probably will just let the insurance company take care of it. Sorry, I didn't take any pictures yet. It creased the rear door pretty good and it won't even come close to shutting. It tweaked the pillar between the front...

    Wife Strikes Again - Body Shop Needed in SLC, UT

    Any suggestions on a good body shop around Salt Lake City? Why you ask? Well, my wife tried to back out of the garage with the rear passenger side door open on the LX450. I haven't seen the carnage yet, but apparently it is pretty messed up. Door won't close, metal around hinges bent, door...

    Blue Fan Clutch VS Hayden

    I have been using the Hayden for two years and it seems to be still going strong. I will probably replace with modded Blue from CDan at some point.

    Mirror on Driver Door Exploded!

    Ditto on the common problem. I just used a generous amount of silicon around the attachment points and wrapped it up with a bungee cord and towel (on the face of the mirror to apply direct pressure) to set and all is good now.

    A/C not Kool enough

    Thanks for clarifying. I am sorry but it wasn't clear from your post, which is why three of us asked for results. I assumed it had helped and I am glad to hear it did because I am having a similar issue and I have been debating re-charging the A/C myself or taking it to a shop.
