Yes, but if clutch is hmm ... partly worn out and he changes from 3rd to 4th revs dont go down to 4k from 6.5k they just slowly go down and when clutch cathes good friction then they go up. I couldnt make it simpler with my english sorry i hope u get what i mean :P

Its been pretty long since u posted that but it might be clutch slipping ...

Just bought it on ebay xD with Smoked black Tail Lights :)))

Does your IS smoke a little bit after night ? When cold mostly ? Just after start of engine for about 4 seconds.

How's goin lads. Recently i bought 01 IS 200 in A/T( 3 months ago ). After few weeks car got a little bit smokey. Previous owner told me that he just changed oil to 10W40 gulf ? or something like that. I bought 5 litres of Castrol 15W40 GTX High Mileage oil as the car just hit 120k miles and after consulting with a friend he told not to go for for that oil. I chose it because car was, what i think abused before i got it. What u think guys ? PS sorry for my english :> Regards
