I have 08 GS350 that has been doing some big time hesitating at low speeds. Brought to dealer and the mentioned water got into the transmissions and want me to pay for a flush.(I think they should, since it's under warranty). Can damage done now cause issues in the future?

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Syncing Android (Galaxy S4) With 2008 GS350
Ok, so I just purchased my first Lexus (2008 GS 350 - 46K miles) and I'm having issues syncing my contacts with the car. The phone syncs. What am I doing wrong, is there some function on the phone I don't know about?? I've also read there might be issues with the Galaxy S4, is this true, if so, how can I get it to work?? Short of buying a new phone!!

08 GS350 is my wife's car and I rarely drive it..
Anyway, I've noticed when I do drive it there is a detectable whine that I can perceive when accelerating normally in 1st and 2nd gear. Originally I thought it was something engine related, so I took it to the dealer and made mention of the condition. They didn't detect anything abnormal on this particular visit - although I did get them to change out the water pump.
Anyway, the whine is still there. It is due for another oil change in the next 500 or so miles so I'll probably bring it up again for them to look at. Just wanting to know if the whine is normal under routine acceleration or not.
Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Noise From Front Brake On 2008 GS350?
Lately I changed my front brake rotor and the new brake pad. However, When I doing back forward with applying light brake. I can hear "gara gara" noise from the front brake. Sounds like two steel material hiting each other.
Also, there is a different noise comes out when I releasing the brake after local stop. (red light stop or stop sign). I ask the mechanic when I doing the oil change. He checked and said my brake just are fine.
Probably it needs time for the pad break down with the new rotor. I used the Posi ceramic brake pads with the come with shim.

About 6 months ago I bought a '08 GS 350 CPO. Love the car but after a month or two of ownership, on light acceleration 3rd and 4th gears will shudder. The whole car will buck and shake, but if I give it more gas it will smooth out. Doesn't seem to be the engine, I suspect more the transmission. Of course I took it in and they "could not reproduce the problem"... Is this just a normal characteristic of the car?
View 14 RepliesLexus GS 2006-11 :: 2008 GS350 Intermittently Dies / Brakes Feels Stiff
About 15x now over the last year, I get in the car, press the brake, the green light comes on and half way through the start-up, the car locks up. Dead, nothing. The brake feels stiff, the key fob will not open the trunk, nor will it lock or unlock the doors, no more green or orange light on the start button. Completely dead.
The last time I opened the door, closed it again and everything reset. It came back "alive", the navigation system rebooted, the air was off and my clock had been reset.
Some days this happens in a matter of a minute or two and other days it takes ten min. Why? Is it a faulty ground? Not sure why it would automatically reset on its own.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: GS350 AWD Vibrates In D And R But Not N
I have a 2007 Lexus GS 350 AWD. I've noticed that when I am at a light that the car has a little bit of a vibration, not bad but I notice it. I have put it in D and R and the car does the small vibration. When I put it into N it completely stops and is still. What the heck would that be from?
Also my steering wheel has a bit of a vibration when driving. I've especially noticed it at 20 - 25 MPH. It doesn't do it more when I brake, it is just something that happens and I can feel the whole time. What do you all think that could be?

View 14 RepliesLexus GS 2006-11 :: Front End Noise On GS350 AWD
I just spent about $600 on front Lexus Oem struts, Front Strut mounts and labor to try to cure a knocking sound that developed recently. My 2007 GS350 has 84K miles on it. Figured it was time and I had a 50% off labor coupon from Pepboys so it wasn't bad.
Unfortunately that did not cure the problem so I figure it was the upper control arm, but the whole front end was solid. I decided to take one of the Moog sway bar end links off that I just put in and drive around. The noise was completely gone!! So it appears that I had a defective sway bar end link!!!
So before you guys start swapping out front end parts for a suspension noise which is what I've seen when I searched the forum, start with the cheapest one, the end links. Take out the side that makes the noise and drive around to see if the noise goes away. BTW it is safe to drive with one missing. I was able to drive normally with it off.

View 13 RepliesFord F-150 (2004-2008) :: 2006 - Jerking At 45 - 50 MPH
I have recently bought a new truck this month and everything was nice and dandy till i noticed an annoying jerking at 45-50 mph. The check engine light didn't come on till recently when it got really bad and would barely start. I hooked a code reader up to it and it said cylinder 6&8 misfire. So I had the coils replaced on those two cylinders and it seemed to start and idle better.
So I took it on the interstate to see if the jerking was gone as well. and it still jerks at 45-50 just like before. I was going to take it to the dealership to have them figure out what the issue is but that's 100 bones just to figure out what the problem is. My mechanic doesn't want to mess with the spark plugs because he knows they always break.
Lexus GS 2006-11 :: 2007 GS350 ML - CD Player Has No Sound
I have a 2007 GS350 ML. Recently the CD player has no sound. It plays the cd and you can change tracks, yet no sound comes out. While the cd is playing, you don't have the ability to change the volume. Sound does come out on the radio and XM. When I play a MP3 CD sound does come out and i can change the volume. when i'm playing a cd and hit a small pothole or road marker sound comes back on. Don't know if it's a loose wire or something.
