  1. Very many thanks Steve. I will investigate further.
  2. Could you leave your car with your Lexus dealer overnight so that they could start car from cold and get a good listen to it. Much easier to diagnose that way than just listening to a recording. Hello Steve, Thanks for the reply. I am afraid the noise only occurs at irregular intervals so I cannot say when it will next happen. Perhaps I had better wait until it happens everytime I start!!
  3. Hi Steve, I am certain it is coming from the engine compartment. If I start with door open whilst in garage I have stuck recorder under car and recorded noise. It really sounds like a bearing rattle and seems to last until oil pressure builds.
  4. I have just joined the forum and would like some advice if possible. I hope this is the way to use the forum! My 2005 Lexus GS300 with 56,000 miles (genuine)has occasionally a loud rattle on starting from cold. This may happen two or three times in a week and then vanish for quite a while. I have recorded the noise but my Lexus garage could not offer an explanation. I read that a member found that the torque converter drive plate was the problem and wonder how this was found out. Thanks, Oldun
  5. Hello Robin, I have just joined the forum and posted a reply to a comment by 'William' re engine noise. My 2005 Lexus GS300 has also a rattle when starting from cold although it only happens occasionally, perhaps for a day or two and then vanishes for quite a while. I recorded the noise but cannot identify it. Have you had any more luck with locating it? thanks, Oldun
