Gs 300 2003 Suspension Noise

[jlbpasty]

traveling at very low speed over uneven ground, a lateral rumble heard from what seems front suspension, ? sounds like loose object moving side to side, most noticable over slow speed humps cinder parking plots and leaving my drive. have remarked to lexus dealer over past 12 months but still no cure. any thoughts appreciated.

Hi,

It may sound like a waste of money,But id book the car in for a MOT...they will really go through the car and if theres anything worn they should find it steering/suspension wise and its a straight £40 Under Half the price of a Lexus hours labour...

Cheers chips.

Not every MOT person will necessarily report back to you that the control arm bushes have play, unless the car has failed the MOT (which in majority of cases of worn GS/LS suspensions doesn't happen in the early stages).
