I have a new GS250 which in which I have done 3500 miles.I have noticed that when in slow moving traffic or in a queue for a roundabout you touch the brakes they squeal.

This only ever occurs in slow moving traffic with intermitent braking.

any comments/advice would be appreciated.

I have been told it is nothing to worry about,it just seems unusal on a new car

I have a 2007 IS250 SE-L,which was out of warranty at end of Sept.2010.

The VSC warning light displays and I am advised that I now need a new Oxygen sensor.The car has only got 22,750 miles on clock and has been serviced and maintained by Lexus.The ECU apparently does not need updating.Has anyone had a similar problem -this seems an unusal problem to have with this sort of mileage or am just unlucky?

Perhaps a a tyre pressure check is required given the cold temperatures for your light steering. Also 17" tyres may be prone to tramlining.

The "loud knocking" has been covered on a number of posts so search around for wheel stepping out or knocking and you will read it appears to be normal behaviour, especially with cold tyres.

Hope that helps.

Thank you -will check tyre pressure(once snow clears!)also will check other posts regarding knocking-thanks again for advice

I have a 2007 IS250 SE-L and have recently noticed that the steering has become very light and sensative.If travelling on a straight section of road the car goes over a slight dip/depression the car veers of to left/right.The steering has always been very positive but I have had problem with starting from cold and doing a hard right turn,I occasionally get loud knocking from front suspension.Anything similar or any ideas?
