Hi,
Looking for some advice with a 1997 LS400.
Everything works as it should, no warning lights, no problems below 4000 RPM.
If you floor the throttle whilst either in N or D the car won't rev beyond 4000. The emissions have been checked and are perfect.
Also the recovery guy was certain it was the left CAT.
I'm looking for ideas.
Thanks in advance.
Hello. I have a 1995 ls400 and mine was the same...After numerous enquiries I was told that they have some form of rev limiter on them, so they cant be over reved...Try it whilst under driving conditions, I think you will find its ok and will rev far beyond the 4000..Anyway mine ok now so its worth a try.....Hope it works for you ...Cheers Roy.

Hello all.I have just had my Air Conditioner filled up, and I noticed that when I switch it on it runs for several seconds and then stops,after a short while it runs then stops again, and so on...Is this normal, and sometimes when it on, it seems noisy..Any help would be appreciated...Thanks Roy.

Just to let you all know that my breaker is about to go, please contact me if you want any MK-III parts for your cars. It is a navy blue car with a grey interior. Parts gone are: springs, PS pump, steering rack, rear suspension, diff, boot lid, radio, CD, time clock, front brakes, mirrors, and a few bits of trim..... BUT there is still loads of bits left.
Hello..I have a 1995 ls 400..Is the front suspension on yours any good, and if so how much...I live dg71nn...Thank you. Roy
-
Hello, Had the car into two garages who have checked all the front end suspension....but nothing to be found, although they both accept the fact that there is a slight knock on the front end, when going over rough ground....so I am still no further....any of you guys had any better luck.....Cheers Roy.
-
Roy,pair of front wishbones were about &265 plus vat (which i can reclaim)
You can get them cheaper on ebay,about £150 all in.However the ones I bought
from rockauto are guaranteed for 5 years,and I prefered to pay the extra for
what I think maybe a more durable product.

Hi, Sorry to hear about the Damage....I would make the parents pay....They are obviously the type that dont care what their kids do...Enough to give you a heart attack isn't it...Challenge the parents and tell them you are going to inform the Police unless they cough up......Good Luck.
-
Hello all.....I have just seen advertised on Lexus Acessories "PowerMag Fuel Saver" has anyone tried it ? does it work ?....Maybe a daft question...but I thought I would ask....Cheers Roy.
-
Roy,get your garage to double check a spring isn't broken.
I had knocking when going over speed humps and mechanic noticed play on n/s wishbone.
I ordered a pair from rockautoparts and when he fitted them he told me he'd found a
broken spring as well! Ordered a pair from toyota and Bobs your mother's brother ...
magic carpet ride restored.
Hope that helps,
Rich.
Hi, How much did your front wishbones cost you...thanks Roy
-

I usually raise a single finger to other LS400 drivers in acknowledgement.According to my daughter, this gesture is a "bloke" thing. I'd be up for any co-ordinated idea.
Isn't that giving someone "the bird"? LOL!
Didn't know my minamilistic gesture had a name :duh:
