Ok I didn’t want to have the risk of a bad highway accident due to a faulty diy job, so opted not to replace the failed spring that caused my spare tire hoist/winch to break, but instead ordered an OEM one from local dealership. Install was super easy. It’s interesting how the design has changed a bit on the bracket at the end of the chain, that mates with the inner wheel.
seems like an expensive little spring, but would be much more expensive if I diy’ed it incorrectly. Kinda frustrating but oh well.
here’s a pic that may help someone one day, part number included. Did this on my ‘09 LX 570 and worked with an oem wheel.

Why does air come out of my vents with the hvac turned off, whether on recirc or not? 2018 LC200
recirc door behind glovebox broken?
Well I just went and looked and it functions perfectly. The 2018 is more of a lid that a door. I took the filter out and inspected everything and put it all back together. Now it works as it should on=on, off=off

My issue was the fan/blower was remaining on. Now seems to work correctly.
welp.

Natural draft. Look through the cowl beneath the windshield and you can see the HVAC filter.
Cool Box still on?
Does anyone happen to have part #s for the plastic splash guards ("fender apron") for the driver's side front tire to go between the wheel well and the engine bay? I noticed mine are missing on that side. I'm thinking the mechanic removed them when doing the front diff work or CV re-boot. epc-data.com shows 4 parts but 3 different part numbers, and I'm not sure which one(s) I need.
Looking for a place to put this, found on passenger front floor of wife’s 2014 LC. Thoughts?

I too have one of these, it sits on my nightstand because I don't know where the hell it came from

- I got a handful from my local dealer. I'd send you a couple, but the cost in shipping/time would be more than what it's worth.
Looking at things like this and trying to decide on future mods. Leaning toward bumper trimming rather than a steel bumper.
For those who are running either bumpers or have modified yours, have you monitored transmission temps before and after?
It cant be that good to restrict so much air flow to the lower transmission cooler can it? Is it restrictive at all or am i making things up?
Thanks for entertaining my SQ. Props for whoevers LX this is.

I noticed very minor transmission temp changes when I changed to a steel bumper. I saw a much more significant increase from swapping to 4.88 gears. YMMV depending on the bumper of course.

Circling back on my own stupid question. The part number for this CLIP; RETAINER in case anyone cares: 90467-A0006. My dealer wants $1.14 a piece. I am all about OEM but this is a stupid price for a disposable part that breaks easily so I ordered the generics from AMZN for fraction of the price.
Lol three of us have one nobody knows where it goes….
make it 4 of us.

Is it a cupholder insert? Doesn't look like the one in my LX, but looks sort of similar.
