Hi there,
I have an 2006 Lexus LX470 that I am selling to my dad for more rugged use than my daily city driving. But there are a few issues I want to fix prior to handing it off to him:
I am in no way qualified to fix this, however, and need advice on what the best route to go is. I am 2.5 hours from Boise, where there is both a Lexus dealer and a Lexus/Asian car specialty repair shop. Meanwhile, I'm 30 minutes from an okay repair shop in Hailey - would they even know how to do this?
Appreciate any advice you can offer, Besides that, love the car and have loved it for years. Just need to get it fixed before gifting it to the old man (so I don't have to hear the gripe about the ride!).
I have an 2006 Lexus LX470 that I am selling to my dad for more rugged use than my daily city driving. But there are a few issues I want to fix prior to handing it off to him:
- The ride is abhorrent and is like sitting on an AK-47
- The AHC system seems to be auto-correcting on the front left side, seemingly at random. It will go up, down, and then neutral in the matter of seconds. This would lead me to believe the AHC system is faulty? However, I am able to move the car up and down with the system at ease. The Comfort --> Sport section is useless and doesn't change the ride at all.
- The muffler is definitely leaking, as there is a notable clicking
