Lexus ES 2007-12 :: ES350 - Front Doors Continuous Clicking And Attempting To Lock Every Few Seconds
Both front doors continuous clicking and attempting to lock (even though they are already locked) every few seconds while driving. All switches appear to be working normally. Tried disconnecting and reconnecting battery, I suspect the door lock ecu but can't find it's location. My next resort is to pull the door lock fuse so that I don' t damage the actuators.

I am running into issues with my 3GS recently I am hearing loud ticking noise coming from the left side on the front of my car and from what most of people have told me is it might be my Axle or my wheel bearing so was wondering what the part number was for both of them and what is the best place to order these two parts from.

On my way home from work tonight cruising on the highway, heard a loud thump followed by continuous thumps thereafter. Knowing this wasn't good pulled over to find a nice big nail in my passenger side front tire, great. thought I could make it home, I was about 6 exits away...one exit later nail flew out and tire was loosing air.
- luckily for me, I had a friend who lived nearby the exit the nail flew off and put on the spare.... now my question is I noticed some camber wear on the tire.. 15,200 miles to be exact on the stock oem bridgestones.
- I know these tires are complete crap but... is this camber wear normal? I've seen other posts about it but, is it the tires? or something to do with the car? I am pretty sure my alignment is fine. If I buy a new set of tires eventually will this end up happening again? Trying to gain some knowledge for the future.
Also is it true that with AWD cars, if you change one tire you have to change all 4? because it might mess up the drivetrain or something, at least that's what I was told.
Subaru - Legacy :: 1995 - Continuous Noise Coming From Front Half Of Car
I have a '95 Subaru Legacy L Wagon AWD 5-speed manual shift. There a new noise that seems to be coming from the front half of the car. I can't really describe the noise, but it only happens when all three conditions are met. If they are, the noise is continuous.
1.) The car has to be in gear--not neutral. But it doesn't matter which gear. I tried revving the engine in neutral, but nothing happens.
2.) I have to be accelerating on the gas petal. If I let off the gas--even if the engine and vehicle speed haven't yet dropped--there's no noise.
3.) Engine speed needs to be at or above 2,000 RPM. It gets louder at higher engine speeds, but it's pretty much proportional to the "normal" noises at higher speeds.
What might be causing this?

Experience such a noise? Seems to happen only when accelerating, but the noise seems to dissipate when you let go of the accelerator pedal.
Best way to describe would be a continuous whining noise.

I thought that my front wheel bearing was bad but I removed it and it seems fine. The issue that I'm having is a continous vibration (noise) in the left front that gets worse with speed.The half shaft makes a noise at the point where the half shaft meets the steering knuckle and when I turn the shaft at the outer splines, the grinding noise is present. My question is, is the entire half shaft supposed to turn, even the outer diameter of it that would enter the steering knuckle, or is the shaft supposed to turn inside of that outer diameter? I hope I was able to explain my problem clearly/

I have a 2009 Sonata (4 cyl) with 110,000 miles.I have a loud roaring noise coming from my right front end. Jacked car up several times, all seems very tight and wheel spins smoothly. This has been going on for over 5000 miles and I have been waiting for the ailment to show its self more clearly in order to diagnose. sound does not change when turning in either direction or breaking. sound increases with speed and is quite loud at 55mph. Had to replace a tire and put it on the right front to see if it was tire wear and there was no change. sounds like loud road noise.

Recently traded in a 2004 ES330 for a Lexus Certified Pre-owned 2009 GS 350 AWD with 32,000 miles. Wasn't in the market for a GS but with such low miles and it being a CPO and the price was in my budget so went for it. Once I got it home, I am starting to notice the engine noise, like its kinda loud.
For some reason didn't notice it while doing the test drive but now, its like when I am driving, I get conscious about it so much so that I have to turn the radio on to take my mind off of it.
So was just curious if its the case with every GS. My 2004 ES had less of an engine noise, and I am thinking the GS is a CPO so it shouldn't be something out of the norm but still wanted to get some perspective here for peace of mind.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Rubbing Noise Front The Front Of The Vehicle
I am on my 4th lexus; GS2010 (I currently own). I was driving off (very slow speed) from the dealership I noticed a rubbing/scrubbing noise front the front of the vehicle. The next day I started the car and backed out of my garage, put on brakes, turned the steering wheel to the far right and pressed slightly on the accelerator and I heard another noise; sounded like CV Joints going bad. So I contacted the dealer and they told me to bring the vehicle over. The noise was heard and they applied grease to something (cant remember what).
The next morning the noise was back; be mindful the noise is intermittent but mostly after the car has sat and never when the brake is applied. So I contacted Lexus and let them know the problem.
Finally I returned to Lexus, by appointment, and test drove with the lead service tech. The tech identified the noise several times during the drive; hard turns recreated the issue. Lexus contacted me and stated that they had welded something and that should ahve fixed the problem.
However the next day same problem; so I contacted Lexus again. When I returned from a business trip I returned the vehicle. On 5/23 I received a call stating that the tech could not duplicate the noise and if I could come and ride (again). So I left work and went. As soon as we got in the car (tech driving), he put the car in drive and made a sharp left turn (click, click, click); and the scrubbing noise got worse. Now instead of scrubbing on left or right hand turn, now its scrubbing going forward. So I asked why couldn't he do that without me. I had left "specific" notes as to when it happens, keep the windows rolled up, of course don't turn on radio and drive normal. So I left the car.
On 5/30 they had the vehicle fixed (yeah right); they adjusted the rear backing plate. Ok so you had my car 1 week, total time about 2+ weeks and the noise was coming from the backing plates ( I said this to myself). As usual the noise came back and I contacted Lexus. I brought the car back in on 6/13/14 and they replaced the right axle. My thoughts, if you are hearing it from both sides why wouldn't you replace both sides (??). Ok took the car home and again before I left the lexus lot, the noise was back. So I called the dealership right away. I did not turn around, I went home to pack for another business trip. Also if i would have turned around I probably would have given them a piece of my mind and that would not have been good for the situation. I was feed up so upon arrival from my business trip I scheduled an appointment with another lexus dealership; same owner but another location.
I take the car in and they call back the following week and say it was the front right caliper and it was replaced; however he stated that he didn't hear the clicking noise. I pick the car up on July 22, and by July 23, I was taking the car back. The rubbing noise they claim came from the tires and they couldn't duplicate the clicking noise. On July 29, they called me in to ride with the tech; be mindful I still have a loaner. They took me to the repair department and my car was on a lift and they dropped it down. The tech asked if I wanted to drive and I told him he could drive. I also pointed at the car that was on the lift directly beside mine and stated that by the time we get to that car you will hear the noise. he heard the noise.
On July 30, they figured out the problem and told me that they had good and bad news. The good news was they found the problem and the bad news is they can't fix it. It is a typical noise for that vehicle and it comes from the brake actuators. So I went to pick my vehicle up on next day and I asked if they bleed/flushed the brakes and he said No; and then I asked him if he replaced the actuators and he said No. So lets recount the events, You have had my car for 2 weeks with specific directions and couldn't duplicate the noise.
I come and ride with the tech and magically the noise is replicated within seconds and magically you know the problem; however you dont give me any explanation and nothing was done to confirm. That let me know they googled and came to this site and by this brake actuator issue being ongoing with no resolution they blame it on it. However the problem is that the noise is not made when braking, its made when the wheel is turned and the accelerator is inclined.
Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Brakes Makes Loud Humming Noise When Pressed
2007 GS 350. In the past 6 months i have changed my FRONT brake pads with two different pair. First was a generic pad(REMOVED), and did some research then went for Akebono(CURRENTLY) brake pads 2-months noise-free and now back to braking noise dilemma.
Issues:
-In the morning, first 3-5 pressed brakes makes loud(REALLY LOUD!) humming noise then goes away. Feels like the brakes are rusty but it continually does it everyday. I just got the car serviced so assuming all my fluids are filled.
-Randomly, on a fully stopped brake i hear a whistle noise from the front brake. NOT as loud described above.
-I noticed the noise happened the most on HOT weather, and occasionally on COLD weather.
Longo Lexus advice me to buy an OEM brake pads and should resolve this problem. I'm also thinking of just getting it done at the dealership and pay that extra cash plus warranty.
