Hi All

Just conducting a quick survey on the Lexus GS300, it's not scientific or anything.

I really like the Lexus brand, but there seems to be a problem with the ABS pump/traction control thingy.

The question is, have you got a Lexus GS300

What year is it?

How long have you owned it?

Did it come with Full Lexus History?

Have you had any problems with the ABS pump?

Thanks for reading.

PS - please see this link for more info.

Hi All

I really like the Lexus and it saddens to me pick faults with it, but the truth has to be spoken.

Watch out for the ABS pump/Traction control. There appears to be an inherent fault and it can cost about £2000 to repair it.

Hope that helps.

PS - very disappointed with Lexus that this is the case, I thought they really were bullet proof.

Hi Everyone

I'm new to all this, and never had an executive car before.

Am thinking of buying a Lexus GS300, about 1998, 1999 (is that the mk II ?). Have a limited budget.

Are there any common problems with these cars?

What are the things to look out for?

What's the fuel economy like, in town and on motorway?

What about LPG option. I have heard it can cause problems.

Are the parts expensive?

DO the engines use oil?

Do the automatic gearboxes go on these?

Does it cost much to run?

Any info/help/experience would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
