  1. A wee update on the clunking subject. I put the car into the garage last Wednesday morning @ 9am.

    Got a message at 11am saying my car was ready. Paul, (the owner of the garage had an is200 and now has a belter of an GS430) said he took the brakes apart, cleaned everything up and put anti slip/sqeal grease on the correct places, as previous brake replacer didn't.

    Well, not only did the clunking/clanking/grinding noise when turning slow disappear, the constant knocking noise coming from the drivers side front also disappeared. It's the quietest the car has been since iv'e owned it ( nearly 2 years).

    I convinced myself the front end knocking noise was the shock inner vaulve. I resigned myself to the fact the only way i was going to get rid of the constant knocking was to replace the shockers, and all for the the sum of £20 :D

  2. cheers tommy - some price difference between the two - tbh they both look expensive for what i can buy locally cheaper and neither has got a skirtkit - is300s are easy to buy in normal everyday trim like these two - for example i could of bought a 300cross when i bought my 200 about 3 months ago for £3 - £3.5k off a forecourt depending on the final haggle - went past last week and its still sitting there unsold !! what does that tell you

    I hear what your saying mate. Hopefully you can get the one that your looking for.

    I'll keep an eye on this side of the border :D
