Lexus GX 2004-09 :: GX470 - Rear Height Control Failure

I'm the owner of GX 470 2006 85 k miles, facing a problem of height control failure. The problem started some few months ago while starting the car. I there was a noise behind on the height compressor. Took it to my mechanical and the noise disappeared because the compressor wasn't well fixed to the body. Since then i'm not able to adjust the height of the car. The car remains at the height low level and jumping dangerously each time i drive it inside a hole. Decided to go back to the mechanical the following code error appeared during the diagnosis: P1445. How can this code be related to the height control system when we know that this code is related to the secondary air injection system switching valve?

I decided to change the 2 height sensors located on the R and L rear side of the vehicule and the VSV locate in the engine. The problem remains. Now the dashboard keeps the green light at N and the button to raise and low the height of the car is not responding. More the mechanic can't anymore obtain the errors code from his diagnosis device.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Rear Suspension Airbag - Height Control Is Inoperative

I own a 2004 GX470 and am recently having issues with my rear airbag. The height control is inoperative and the bags will not fill completely and lift the rear.

I went under the car and found the bumpstops are a few centimeters off the rear axle.

What could cause the height control to not function? Could it be the height sensor, airbag, etc? I could hear the air compressor turn on so do not think that is an issue.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Height Control Switch Not Responding

I was driving today and noticed the ride was a harsh and bumpy. I stopped the car and try raising the car by pressing the up arrow on the height control switch, however, nothing happened.

The height control indicator is on "N" and it does not change when I press the height control switch either "UP" or "DOWN".

I found a few cases online where people stated that the "Height Control Button Off" button would flash. I have no flashing or warning lights in my dashboard.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Flashing Off Light Under The Height Control Display

Picked up this one owner 2003 with 120k miles, last week! I couldn't be happier with the build quality, and comfort. Its one solid truck! Its by far the nicest most luxurious vehicle my family has ever owned.

There is a flashing "off" light under the height control display on the dash. The height control says it is in neutral however the truck is currently sitting at 3ft from fender to road. I'm going through the owners manual and hopefully will find a way to get this corrected.

The truck will be taken to Lexus here in Dublin, OH on Saturday for a full inspection and fresh fluids.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Rear Air Suspension - Car Height Was No Longer Working

I took my 2003 GX470 for service (not a Lexus dealer), which included rear brake pads. After picking up my car, I realized there was a serious malfunction with the rear air suspension, and my "car height" was no longer working. I took it back to the mechanic immediately - he stated that the rear air bag deflated when they put it up on the lift (which is normal). However, they couldn't get it to inflate again, so had to order a new one. I'm wondering if this is the mechanic's problem or mine (the car has 101,000 miles on it).

Lexus RX 2010-15 :: Way To Re-program The Tailgate / Rear Door Height?

Is there a way to re-program the tailgate/rear door height? Or even manually adjust? Just purchased a 2012 RX 350, and my garage is about 4 inches too short. Now I realize I can disable the electronic lift, but it's a shame not to be able to use this feature. I'm sure others have had this problem, but I've googled with no success.

Lexus GX 2010+ :: 2006 GX470 - Automatic Rear Suspension Height Adjustment

I have a 2006 GX470. It has some sort of automatic rear suspension height adjustment. When it is malfunctioning the rear of the car is jacked up like I have pimped it out. I use the height adjustment button but when I resume driving the car moves back into the neutral position which is not neutral at all it is jacked to the top. I had the sensors replaced once for $1,000 but within a year it was doing the same thing.

Now the light flashes to lower the back end but the back end doesn't move. I am stuck in the jacked up mode.

Lexus SC430 :: Passenger Window Control Failure

At the 150K mile mark electromechanical components are starting to fail (Nav DVD reader, CD changer, 2 starters (they seem good for only ~70K miles), brake switch, etc.) which is probably reasonable to expect, even in a non-humid climate. Recently, the controls for the passenger side window stopped working. Some details:

- Driver's side window control works to control driver's side window
- Passenger side window switch LEDs are not lit on either door
- Passenger side window rolls up and down when top is changed to up or down position

Given that the motor is proven good by the fact that the window goes up and down with no problems when the top's position is changed, I'm inclined to think that there is probably an issue with the "COMPUTER MPX DOOR" component in the passenger door.

Passat (B6) :: How To Adjust Rear Height On Coilovers

How do you adjust the rear height on coilovers? I have the ST coilovers which are comparable to the KW. Do I have to compress the spring and then adjust? I tried to do it with the wrenches given but the whole thing just turns with it. I'm going to lower the front some more and I want to do the rear as well. It is my first set of coilovers on a car and I had someone else do the install.

Lexus GS 2013+ :: Driver Side Rear Power Door Lock Failure

Strangely today my drivers side rear power door lock stopped working. Very annoying, can't unlock it electronically, and if its unlocked the rest of the car won't lock and the headlights won't go off.

I have to put it in anyways for the airbag seat rail TSB, but I was going to wait until my 40k service was due. This is too annoying to wait on since I put my briefcase and hang up my suit jacket in that seat...

Elantra GD (2013+) :: Rear End Lower On One Side / Uneven Ride Height

Myself and ZAC1 have an identical issue regarding ride height on our GT's. The rear driver side is lower than the rest of the car (or the passenger side is higher).

In my case you can notice it just by looking at the car from a distance, mainly from the rear. Using a tape measure to check the height of the wheel well to the ground, the driver side is 26", the passenger side is 26.5". I have measured it on a variety of surfaces just in case my garage was on a slope.

Avalon 2005-12 :: 2011 - Rear View Mirror Height Adjustment

My '11 Ltd. r.v.mirror has the backup camera, and is attached to the windshield 2 inches below the top, order to clear the GPS, antenna, theft, ( ? ) hardware..... I'm over 6 ft. and it seems to needlessly block too much of the front field of vision,......anyway, I've tried to adjust it as high as it'll go and it's still an inch from the top. Is this as far up as these mirrors can be set?

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: 12V Power Outlet Failure On 1st Gen GX470

I was using the12V power outlet to power a small air compressor to a small air tank. Had to answer a phone and forgot about it for a while. When I returned, the air compressor was not working. I figured I either blew a fuse or fried the compressor. I pulled the 12v plug from the power outlet and inserted it in the cigarette liter outlet and the compressor still worked.

I then plugged my radar detector into the 12V outlet and it did not work.So I figureed I blew a fuse. I pulled the 15 amp fuse from #54 but it looked good. To double check I swapped this fuse with the 15 amp fuse for the rear wiper and the fuse was fine.

So I am thinking the 12V power outlet socket must be bad. Isn't that why we have fuses -to protect an expensive part with a cheap one? Is this an easy DIY job?
