When is timing belt due to be changed? I have a 2000 RX-300 that just hit
60K and I think that is when it is supposed to be changed? What else should
I replace while in that part of the engine?
Would it be better to go to the dealer for this or an independent?

I just brought my 2004 ES330 in for the 1,000 mile check up.  It might
be my imagination, but the tranny seems more responsive than before.
What could they have done?

Displacement, power and torque rating are exactly the same. Do you
know what is the real difference beside the logo?
The Honda Pilot and Acura MDX has similar engine except the MDX is
fine-tuned for 20 more horses.

I am trying to find a place to buy the plastic headlamp cover for a 93
SC400. Mine is cloudy. I cant find any sites using google that have one.
Anyone know where to look?
Thanks,

I drive less than average -- about 10K miles/year. I recently moved to
a new office that is even closer to my home, so I will probably put
even fewer miles on the car.
The LS400 manual recommends an A service every 4 months/5K miles. That

My engine suddenly started missing like it needs a tune up bad.
It's missing under power, especially from a dead start.  It may
be due to gasoline I got at a station I never went to before.
I just filled up again with some good premium and it is running

I've got a 95 Lexus LS400 sitting in my garage with  about 103K miles
on it.  The car was perfect until it was T-boned taking out the
passenger side doors.  Both passenger side doors need to be replaced,
the door pillar between the front and back passenger side door needs

I am looking for a key fob for a Lexus GS400. I have the internal parts and
the metal key. I just need the plastic housing that goes around the guts of
the key.
Does anyone know how I can get one without spending the $220 at Lexus?

I have replaced the air filter and reset the computer and my check engine
light still comes on.
Is there any other sensors I can replace before I have to take this thing
into a dealership?

When my gas tank is full, my 2004 ES330's computer says that the range
is 320 miles.  When the range says 80 miles (=25% of 320), the gas gauge
says exactly 3/8th of a tank.  According to the range reading, the gas
gauge should say 1/4th tank.  Anyone know why the gas gauge ...

Hi Group,
I am posting to this group because, as Lexus owners, I greatly value your
opinion.  I feel that everyone in this group is either knowledgeable about
automobiles or is a car enthusiast.  This is why I am asking for your

Finaly got my wifes 2000 ES300 in for its 25000 checkup. The brakes make it
shake the steering wheel so badly when you step on them at road speed that it
nearly threw me off the freeway first time I did it. They also vibrate the
wheel at lower speeds. She drives like the typical ...

Tonight my wife said a light came on her dash.  I checked it an it is the
check engine light.
About a month ago dashboard light came on indicating a tailight bulb needed
to be replaced.  I checked and checked but could not find a lamp out.

I have an LS400 (1993) for sale for parts or as an easy repair. It
broke down a few months ago as though it had run out of petrol. A
Lexus specialist has told me it could be as bad a requiring a new fuel
pump or as good as just needing a wire soldering or a clean petrol

The 2004 ES330 with Nav/ML has an AM-SAT button.  I understand that
means that the car is "satellite radio ready."  I read in an edmunds
discussion group that a kit is going to be available soon to get XM
Satellite radio, but the guy said it was going to cost about $800.  This
