LS400ANTH

No thanks, it's helpful if you had the same problem. Think I might just change it and see

Hi all, I replaced the switch on the side of the gearbox not too long ago to cure a starting Problem. I've checked it several times to ensure it is set up correctly, which it is. But the car still sometimes refuses to start and often will when I keep it around neutral. Some say the starter might be the problem but why would it still start around the neutral position If its the starter? Is there something else I should be looking at, like another electrical switch or Something? Its just replacing the starter is not a two minute job but I will do it if I think this really is The problem. Please let me know as its really starting to baffle me Cheers Ant

Hi everyone, Since this website has been so helpful to me I'd like to offer something in return. If anyone wants any furniture-from oak dining, sofas, beds to high end Italian branded furniture, let me know and I'll give you a discount. Every little helps as some supermarket might say! Ant

I've been looking into a new set of wheels for my lexus but the original alloys for these are a bit bland. While I always like to keep my cars as original as possible I wondered if other people had fitted different manufacturer alloys or aftermarket wheels to enhance the look of the LS400. If you think you have a great set of alloys on your LS I would love to see a picture Ant

Thanks for the info. I took the car to the garage and explained the above. There was a few faults which I'm now looking into. Love this website

Evening everyone, I took my car in to my local garage recently and they said they couldn't use their code reader equipment on the LS (1995). Is this correct or were they just making excuses? I'd like to buy one and have seen universal one's about, would these be any good or is there a specific type I'd need to buy? Cheers Ant

I remember always wanting to date the best looking girl in class-until I did. Turned out she was as dull as dishwater. A similar thing when I recently drove an 80's Porsche 911. Was really looking forward to it and was quite disappointed. Hard to drive on the limit. Not as quick as I thought. Now off my wish list. What car have you always wanted, and may have bought and then thought it wasn't as good as the dream?

Hi, Thanks for your messages. I have messaged Bunfur, actually had something from him before so here's hoping! thanks cruisermark for your link. Even if it did fit it is also damaged. The hunt continues...........

Hi All, Anyone know of a black boot lid for an LS400? Reversed into a tree.......yeah I know, very silly. But is now creased beyond repair. Well beyond spending alot of money in a body shop Any help gladly received Cheers Ant

Hi, Anyone know where there is a boot lid for a 96 ls400 preferably in Black? message me if you can help Thanks Antt

Decided to fit a new neutral safety switch today and now car is fixed! One thing I'd say though is when I fitted the new one it still didn't start so decided to check the alignment and it was out. Aligned correctly and now it is starting every time! so maybe the original was ok after all. Also for anyone doing the same job I managed it without taking part of the exhaust off. With a bit of patience and care it is possible. Ant

This is for '94 series two. Before you replace the switch check this: loosen the neutral start switch bolt and set the shift lever to to the N position There is a line on the cover Align the groove and the line and then tighten the bolt the groove is on the lower hexagonal below the fixing bolt, tighten 9ft.llb[13 n.m] This is the basic neutral switch setting I think you may have to remove part of the exhaust to replace the switch Great thanks for this. I will look into it at the weekend and advise! Ant

95 Lexus LS400 owned for 2 years-2 MOT's and not a thing wrong. Wish that could be said for my XJ8!!!!
