    LX570 feels unstable on freeway and clunking noise

    Hi all, My 2013 Lx570 feels unstable on the highway. Feels like the rear end is loose. Any thoughts? There is also a clunk sound going over speed bumps almost like the spare is hitting something. I removed the spare but same issue. Sensor lift with spacers in all 4 corners and panhard bar...

    Persistent Vibration Issue with Unknown Source

    Hello, I’m experiencing persistent vibration issues with my 2010 GX460. On November 1, 2023, at 155,452 miles, I replaced the driver’s side wheel bearing, hoping to resolve a constant humming noise typical of a bad hub bearing. While the noise reduced slightly, it didn’t fully go away and...

    Man, what have I done? Oh, and hello!

Seems the evaporator and compressor need to be replaced as well as dropping the tranny for rear main seal. While down there I figured what the hell I ought to replace cv driveshafts and bushings to...

    Maintenance recommendations on a low mileage 2014

    I just purchased a 2014 with 42k miles, I'm going to start driving it a lot more than the last guy did. Any recommendations on services/maintenance I should do because of the age of the car and not the miles? It still has its original tires and brakes!

    Replacing Steering Rack. Critical to Replace PS Pump, PS Reservoir, etc.?

    My steering rack has been weeping since before I got the vehicle 5 years ago from the driver side boot. Everything else is seemingly fine in the system.
