    Has the same discs and pads. Suspension spings/shocks may be different on the IS300 due to the extra weight.
  2. ColinBarber
    Not sure about the MKIV but the LS430 only has a 55Ah battery as standard. Better off putting in something a bit more powerful - 70Ah+

    It probably doesn't filter dirt particles as well as the stock filter either. However did they reset the ECU and run it for a 100 miles or so for the short and long term fuel trims to be reset?

    Should last 3 - 6 months.

    hopefully it's not a seal issue on a 1 year old car.

    keep up the good work

    Not sure what the stock 17" rim weight is but you should be able to get 18" that are the same or less weight.

    Has anybody tried the new short shift gearlevel on the sport?
  10. ColinBarber
    I much prefer the old 5 spoke ones.

    Lexus Edinburgh have some 20" wheels available for the RX http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...T&f=47&t=10090&

    Can you felt the engine stutter under acceleration? Maybe a coil pack or plug is playing up.

    Happy Birthday Dave
  14. ColinBarber
    Can you describe the rough idle problem you have?
  15. ColinBarber
    It's not just the brake pads moving is it?
  16. ColinBarber
    What did you get the Denso ones (IK20) or HKS?

    I cannot really see how it can be a sticky caliper. Sticky caliper normally overheats the disc and warps it, you then get wobbles which won't go away until you replace the disc. Maybe a sticky piston (dual piston brakes) which is putting uneven pressure on the disc? I still think it is rust on the surface - different thickness under the pads to the rest of the disc which causes the wobble. The rust would be worn off very quickly though.
  18. ColinBarber
    Probably just rust on the disc surfaces which will wear off after a short time.

    I don't like the drive when the lid is down. Make sure you don't get one with the runflat tyres.
  20. ColinBarber
    Hope you got 6 plugs not just 4

    Centre bore is much bigger on the BMW. The problem with buying new hubs is you can't get them. Who would make a hub for a Lexus when it does even fit the wheels? You would have to get them custom made, fit new discs and probably have to reposition the caliper mounting.
