hi, i've exactly the same noise from mycar...expecially in second and first gear (when changin down and when the engine is warm).

My lexus dealer said it's a normal noise from the trasmission because there is too much torque (400nm) to tolerate...

i don't know if it's true or not...let me know if your dealer repairs your car or not!

for european owners....there is new fly-audio site: www.fly-audio.nl or www.fly-audio.eu

they sell flyaudio products for european people...and it would be available a new flyaudio navi version for lexus is (with rds and other minor upgrade).

price 1300€

i've seen a lot of pictures of is-f original steering wheel, in comparison with standard is-x50 steering wheel.

i've noticed also a difference in terms of smooth leather length on the bottom of the wheel.

In other words, is-f wheel is 3/4 perforated leather and 1/4 smooth leather, but this 1/4 portion of wheel is little than the 1/4 portion of standard is steering wheel.

can someone very kindly take a measurement of the length of is-f smooth leather 1/4?

here 2 pics:

ok thank you

i'm asking this because i'm going to send one lexus is-220d steering wheel to a company that change the leather and put a new one (also perforated leather) and the result seems to be very good.

this is the company: http://stores.ebay.de/Petersen-Project?_rdc=1

does anyone know them?

Hi, i'd like to know if the is-f steering wheel is exactly the same of others lexus is 2° series, except the perforated leather instead normal one.

i mean the wheel diameter is the same or is ticker??

is f-sport leather steering wheel perforated (like is-f) or normal leather?

my is220d has some rattle nois coming from passenger door window when the road is not perfect, like some holes or bumps on the road. The rattle disappears if i open the window.

anyone else with this problem?
