LS430 UK from France

[Gregos]

Hi,

Here are some pictures from my LS430 recently bought.

I sold my GS300 sport edition to taste the V8 from the updgraded 2004 model.

From now i do not regret at all, as It is much much more confortable and quiet.

I paid it very cheap price, and decided to refurb it as totally new.

- paint - leather - wheels...

(I have already done leather + front lights ; not on pictures)

However, i have few options not working, and i might need some help to find solution.

I am also french, (used to live in London years ago) but hope to not make so many mistakes 😉

Hi Gregory, welcome to LOC! That GS looks like a serious car, put a few more pictures, will you.

Congrats on LS, how do you like it so far? Bigger, better, quitter?

It's a few guys here that have another mother language (me including) but everyone is very nice and never criticised anyone and all are very helpful! 

Fire away your questions and you most likely will get an answer or an advice!

Hi Vlady,

thanks 😉 i appreciate it.

regarding my previous GS, i added nice JNC wheels from US, Teins coilover, tinted windows, and some deflectors.

that's actually, what i used to do on any car i have. That GS was nearly new with a 90.000 on clock, new paint...

I expect to do same on LS this winter. But i would like to solve my different electronic problem before ... 😞

my feeling is : bigger, much bigger... but more responsive with the 6 AT,  it feels faster.

I really appreciate the silence inside, but would prefer to hear the Mark.Levi 🙂

Very nice GS (and LS of course) I love the black and white picture! Welcome to the LOC, I hope you find the info you need.  The amp does appear to be one of the weak points with the ML system, along with the speakers.

Hi,

thanks ;)

so you mean the speakers have fuse as well? 

Cause i only checked the fuses from amp

No, the ML speakers always seem to blow. The foam around the edges disintegrates causing them to vibrate.  They can be repaired but it's time consuming. The subwoofer repair means removal of the rear seat.

Yes, i’ll try to find someone able to refurb Amp in the Uk... hope to find solution here..
