    Sorry I meant leaking from it
  2. messi
    The creaking noise wasn't there today, but I did get it on the ramp at my brothers garage and could see the lower ball joint has grease locking from it
  3. messi
    Yes it is the ball joint, Ibe just ordered a new one from lexus dealers
  4. messi
    Thanks for the advice guys

    That's the thing, it started happening today, it started making a creaking sound when I did a turn and when went over a bump, so I parked up to go into a shop, came back, started driving it, and it wasnt creaking , then later in the day, it started creaking again, then a few mins later it stopped
  6. messi
    I'm getting a slight creaking sound from the n's front

    Hiya How can you tell if the lower arms are faulty? Do they make a certain noise, do the ball joints leak?? Thanks in advance Oh and it's a 2000 X reg ls400
  8. messi
    It would tell you on the v5
  9. messi
    What about the ls460? Isn't that car any good?
  10. messi
    You will only error 21 code if it's dark outside

    The ls430 is a nice car, I've had 2, but my ls400 is more reliable, the battery on mine doesn't go flat if I leave it standing for 3 or 4 weeks, like Adam said ls430 aswell as having air suspension and compressor issues, it also has the vsv issue, rear doors jamming shut so they won't open, cd player stops working, rear subwoofer cone tears apart, vsc sensor issues on the rear, Windows clouding up, I can't think of anything else at this stage
  12. messi
    One is for air suspension aswell, I used to have a celsior

    I had a golf that my brother put remote start on, but you couldn't drive it off without the key being in the ignition which was a good thing
  14. messi
    He told me the same thing, he did sound genuine
  15. messi
    But you still have to get into the car to switch the air con on so I don't see any point in having remote start
  16. messi
    Got mine re gassed yesterday at 670 ml and within a min it's ice cold
  17. messi
    Yes he is a very dodgy trader, we don't trust him, so it's entirely up to you, the car has been on sale for some time and he has dropped the price on it, it was £2000
  18. messi
    I wouldn't bother with it, but it's up to yourself
  19. messi
    This is the seller that was selling the red ls430 I went to go and see for a member on here, he made out in his ad car was mint etc, but he didn't mention it had 9 owners and the car was tatty, some of the panels were a different shade to the rest of the car, I'm sure this is the same seller
  20. messi
    I've seen that on auto trader, it's exactly the same colour as mine and condition too
  21. messi
    No way is that worth £4480. I had a 99 mk4 with 39000 miles that I sold for £3000, my mates got a mk3 with 48000 miles on it that he bought for £1500
  22. messi
    Do you have any pictures?
  23. messi
    Hi guys Hope someone can help. Currently I drive an x reg lpg converted ls400, which has been a great car, but I'm also now looking at the gs430. My questions are, what do they drive like? Are they as smooth as the ls400, what are the common faults? Thanks in advance
  24. messi
    Oh one thing that isn't mentioned that is also a fault on the ls430, the petrol tank will also need replacing at some stage due to a hole in the petrol tank, apparently it starts with rust first, CD player also a fault, air suspension compressor and sensors, rear doors jamming close and won't open, front door slightly drop for some reason, rust on the front doors, vsv valve failure, and I think the rest has been mentioned
  25. messi
    There were some brand new black oem ls430 mats on eBay last week, went for £35, they were still wrapped in the plastics
