2014 Gs300h strange vibration issue


Recommended Posts

Hi all.

I have a 2014 gs300h that is having a very odd sensation when driving. The best way I can describe it as an engine vibration/wobble  when driving. It feels like a pulley wobble and only occurs when driving.

The sensation is not transmitted to the steering at all but it's felt through the chassis, I have had the tracking done as well as a new set of Tyres to no avail.

There is a pulley to the right as you look at the engine bay that has a very little bit of play in it but I don't know if it's related. As a matter of interest what does that pulley drive?

I also noticed the heatshield is also loose put seems from what I have read is a design feature rather than an issue

This is driving me nuts at the moment so any help greatly appreciated.

Is this only at a specific speed or engine rpm? Always done it or just started?

There was an issue with the IS300h but haven't heard it affects the GS300h.

hi all

thanks fro the help. It's been ongoing for a while and i put it down to old tyres so i was hoping that new tyres would cure the problem but no joy. ther is no wobble at speed or under braking  and at lower speeds ( sub 50kph) its not an issue but is consistent  when up at 100-120kph, it really does feel like somewhere in the drivetrain/chassis something is askew.

I have read the link as poitned out by colinbarker and some of it is similar to my case so i need to contact my Lexus dealer and see if it apples or not.

Thanks once again
