New to the forum, looking to get my first GX470. Found what I think is a reasonable deal, but want to check thoughts here.
Basically, I'm looking at a 2003 GX470 with 230K miles on it. Was always taken to the Lexus dealer by the previous owner, and in terms of major repairs it had the air bag replaced at 175K and then the timing belt was done at 180K.
Main issue is the center diff lock is blinking and won't lock. Previous owner didn't take it offroading, so it wasn't ever used. What kind of costs would I be looking at for that repair? Also, is there anything else I should dig into?
Overall, is this a good deal?
