  1. Thanks guys for taking the time to comment it’s appreciated
  2. Hi guys i am considering buying a gsf and wondered what the ride was like, is it really harsh or quite comfortable have not had an opportunity to try one yet but the car is everything i want as long as the ride is not too stiff for long journeys. i would appreciate your thoughts on this. Thanks Bob.

    LS430 WANTED

    Hi I am looking for a good 430 to buy, must have FULL service history and be in tip top condition with cream leather, would prefer a later car with low mileage. but this is not as important as the condition. I have no preference as far as colour goes as long as bodywork is all original and good. thought I would try on here as am sick of looking at dealers "immaculate" rubbish. So if any of you guys are considering parting with your pride and joy I would certainly be interested Regards Bob
  6. Car is at a independant dealer it has been his own personal vehicle he has agreed to get this done and i will wait and see what happens and if it corrects it
  7. Hi messi could well be right but it is something i personally have never heard of and just wanted a bit reassurance it was not a sign of something more sinister going on
  8. Hi all went to look at a 2007 LS460 today, car seemed fine apart from the steering wheel, which was off centre by about 5 or 10 degrees. just wondered if anyone had any opinions on this, the sales guy reckons the tracking just needs done but having read about steering rack problems am just a bit concerned. I must say the car drove fine with no warning lights and steering felt okay.
  9. Hi guys just an update on this situation, had the car in at my Lexus dealer and it turns out drivers rear suspension had collapsed so several hundred squids later all sorted and back to the way she was, cannot believe I drove all the way home from Belgium with it like this. according to the guy at Lexus the drivers side rear sphere was shot and had to be replaced, and on the invoice it was down as "replaced rear air suspension unit" at a cost of £635.37 + vat. a lot of cash I know but this is also a lot of car and I wouldn't swap it for anything. thanks for your help guys
  10. Hi my ls430 has developed a weird symptom, when driving at high speed e.g. motorways and I go over a rough bit of road the car is stotting about quite alarmingly, other than this it is behaving as normal. but as I say on rough stretches of road it is a two handed job to keep hold of it. just wondered if anybody had any ideas as to what could be causing this. thanks in advance Bob.
  11. Hi guys i have been looking at a ls430 2003 approved car at lexus, and on seeing underneath there seemed to be a bit of corrosion,mainly on the rear metalwork, ie the cross struts and the like , my question is this, are we talking normal for this type of car or should i be walking away. any advise would be appreciated.
  12. Could anyone tell me if it is normal for the LS gearbox to use a bit of transmission fluid. I have run the car daily for 6 months and the level has gone down from halfway between empty and full to the lower level mark in approx 8000 miles. It is due to be replaced but i am just a bit worried that this is not normal and this is an indication that something is wrong. many thanks in advance for any help on this matter.
  13. just recently my ls400 97 has developed a miss on one of the cylinders and am wondering if this could be down to plugs have only had the car 6month and a service is due shortly. or could it be something else any ideas on what to check ? thanks.
  14. could anyone tell me what tyre pressures i should use for 225/55/r17 97w as the book that came with the car has pressures only for 16" wheels. any help would be appreciated. the car is an LS400 1997. thanks bob.
