Hey all,

Its been a minute. Busy winter work season and all. I need to get the 75K service on my LX. TRying to avoid the Dealer. Any suggestions? @tbisaacs had mentioned Greggs in the past. Just looking for other thoughts.

Auburn car repair and off road is awesome. They’re booked out but do great work.

After bad dealer experiences, I found Greg’s Japanese Auto in Bellevue and have been happy with them. Good work, they know Toyotas, and reasonable prices.

I've been going to Japanese auto in Bellevue after tbisaacs rec. They're alright.

Bellingham, WA Cruiser meet-up

Not sure if anyone saw this. I figured it should be mentioned in here. It’s not close for me (on the peninsula) still going to try to make it up there tonight.

I saw a silver TLC today in Renton with icon rebounds, ridge grapplers, bull bar and what looked like an RLC rear swing out. You on here?

I need a recommendation for a technician From either Titus-Will or Toyota of Puyallup for the fuel pump recall work. I just want to get the best guy at the shop. Anyone have a name? Thanks in advance!!

Hey Seattle locals!

I had the misfortune of coming out to my LC after eating last night to find that someone had backed into me and left w/o bothering to leave contact info. I've gotten my insurance company involved, and we're working on getting video from the parking lot.

Anyone have a body shop in Seattle that they'd recommend? Potentially needing new rear bumper, and who knows what else happened underneath. If it helps, I'm located in north Seattle, basically Shoreline, but I don't have issues using a well regarded shop that isn't in the immediate neighborhood.

TIA!

That sucks. I hope you at least get a Dissent or Slee bumper out of the deal.
I don’t have any body shop recommendations, but I do have a mechanic recommendation in Lynnwood, maybe they can refer? Andy’s Auto Repair.

Second that, this is a perfect chance to get a steel rear bumper.

A colleague had his 4Runner repaired at Bel-Red Auto Rebuild in Bellevue and was pretty happy with it.

Hi, Hey I decided I really needed a pickup, so I sold my LX570. I have some stuff I purchased that I would like to sell.

4 Tundra take offs - $500 - includes wheels, lugs and center caps.

Pair Front Fog Light Lamp Cover Lexus LX570 13-15 - $80 Straight out of the box, never put on, still has the tape. They look really nice, high quality. I was impressed.

Trail-Tailor front Recovery Hooks, put on at Christmas, been on for about 6 weeks.... $80

I live in Redmond, work in Issaquah. Let me know if you are interested.

RNRauto.com - ask for Ryan Stier - he replaced a rear bumper on my previously owned 2014 and it was perfect...

Adding a buddy @duhfender , he just picked up an LX470

Funny, I swear I've seen it a couple times near my place in W Seattle. I keep meaning to leave a note.
