Since I’ve picked up my 13 LX570 with 93,000 on the clock a few weeks ago, I have been so disappointed with it. It wandered and pulled to the right. It has been irritating to drive. I took it in for an alignment and the left toe was out significantly. After the alignment, it was better but something still was not right. It required constant steering correction and still pulled somewhat. I thought it could be worm control arms, rack bushings, radial pull from the Michelin Latitudes (not all are worn evenly) etc.
For any who feels as if their LX does not track straight and wanders or follows the crown in the road or your steering wheel has too much twitch over bumps, bump your tire pressures up to 40 psi. I was running 35 psi. Lexus has 33 (way too low!) on the gas door. I put it at 40 psi and it feels like a different vehicle! Tracks straight as an arrow, drives so much better, no constant steering correction and the suspension is so good that it is not harsh and conepensates for the added psi.
