Lexus RX 2010-15 :: Rear Door / Lift Gate Squeaking
My 2010 RX350 (~30k miles) recently has been making a squeaking noise when I close my rear lift gate. Sounds like the squeaking is coming from the left side "Rear Door Hatch Support" ..i believe that is what it is called. Is this something I can WD-40 and lube? Car is under warranty..

My power liftgate recently stopped working. The motor seems to be working but the motor will only move the gate a ltittle bit, then beep and stop. It does this regardless of which buttons I push or manually move the gate. I have no issues with the lock function. I can't seem to find out where the sensors are as I want to try fixing those first.

We're coming up on 36k miles and it will be a real hassle to get it into the dealer before it reaches the end of warranty. The lift gate is rattling horribly (my 8 year old diesel truck is tight compared to this car). Is it worth trying to get it into the dealership for this or would I be wasting my time because they can't do anything about it anyway? Or, is there a fix I can do relatively easily myself?
View 2 RepliesPrius (2010-12) :: Plastic Spoiler Broken On Lift Gate
I forgot I had my lift gate open and backed out of the garage...crunch! Broke off the plastic air spoiler thing. It was attached with some kind of adhesive covering 5 bolt heads and a snap on grommet at each end.
I drilled out the old adhesive on the plastic panel and chipped it off the bolts. I hope I can get two new plastic fasteners at Toyota or a body shop. Question...should I just use a two part epoxy (or what else is recommended) on the bolt heads to mount it again?
Prius (2010-12) :: One Of Interior Handles For Lift Gate Broke Off?
One of the interior handles for the liftgate broke off. I removed it. From what I can tell, this handle is molded to the interior trim part.
I'd like to glue this piece back on, rather than having to purchase the complete lower trim piece.
What is the best type of glue for this plastic?
Tiguan :: 2010 - Water Streaks On Inside Part Of Rear Window / Leaky Lift Gate
I took my wife's 2010 tig for a drive after washing it this morning and noticed water on the rear window so I turned on the rear wiper. Well, to my dismay, the wiper didn't clean the water off because it was on the inside. I noticed water streaks on the inside part of the rear window a few weeks ago but I figured it was from condensation. It wasn't one or 2 drops, it was leaking down across the whole back window. I assume it is a seal but wanted to see if this is an identified issue.

I have a 2010 RX450h and live in Minnesota where it is hard to hand wash my car. The darn car washes tend to catch the front of my license plate frame and bend it and the license. I have tried several different plate frames and none worked. Minnesota plates are now the thin, non-stamped plates so they are very flimsy.
I even tried putting a plastic plate behind the license to make it more rigid but that failed too.
Lexus RX 2010-15 :: 450H - How To Replace Front / Back Emblem
I've searched high and low, but cannot find a product/way to replace my Front and back emblem on my 2014 RX450H - it's not like the Rx350 where you can paint it black or spray it (because the 450H emblem is under a thick clear plastic). Plus the 450h emblems are a little bigger than the 350 counterpart so you can't just switch it out either.
Again- the 450H has a plastic cover over the actual emblem- it comes in one piece. I would love to change it (smoke/black it out) I can't stand the blue-hue the hybrid cars FORCES you to have.
Lexus RX 2010-15 :: Rear Entertainment System 450h - Audio Only Comes Through Headphones
Recently bought the Lexus 450h and the Rear Entertainment system is an Aftermarket system. It was delivered to my wife yesterday and I had thought they were going to put in the Factory system. After looking at the current system I am kind of concerned about it.
The system looks to be an Invison SL system that is in the headrests. The concern I have is that we use the rear entertainment for our young children and they can't wear the headphones. the way it is set up the audio only comes through the headphones, it won't come over the car speakers. Plus the headphones if they could wear them are not volume limiting
Also someone needs to be in the back to start or stop the dvds. The other luxury suv we have has the factory dvd system. Audio comes over the main speakers and we can start/stop the dvd with controls from the main console in the front. this is not a knock on invision but for our setup it seems like the factory would be better.
I would like to have to the factory system because I like to have it all integrated and working together.
Lexus RX 2010-15 :: 450H Fuel Tank Capacity And Tire Pressure
The manual for the 450H does not agree with what I am experiencing.
1. The Manual says the fuel capacity is 17 gal, but with an empty tank the most I can put the tank is around 14 gallons. What is the real capacity, and why does the manual say 1y7 gallons.
2. For my 450H with 19 inch wheels the manual says tire pressure should be 33 psi. However, when delivered from the factory the tire were 39 psi. What should the tire capacity be?
There seems to examples throughout the manual of conflicting information.

I just replaced the battery, and since then the electronic latch for the lift gate will no work. The only way I can get it opened is from the inside using the access hole and a screw driver. I have checked the fuse and it is good.

I took the 88 out yesterday (3.0 with rebuilt transmission).. it looks like there is transmission fluid on the back (spots all over it).. I can only assume it's transmission fluid... I tried to wipe it off... but it was kind of a mist.. I assume the modulator should be checked? I'm not sure where it is or what it looks like though...

I have a 2009 Saturn Outlook. The rear lift gate does not work anymore, as a matter of fact it tries to slam itself shut whenever it is lifted. I am not extremely mechanically inclined but I can do minor repairs so I also need to know if I can fix this problem or need to take it to a mechanic.
View 3 RepliesFord Escape / Hybrid :: 2003 V6 - Rear Lift Gate Will Not Open
My mother-in-law has a 2003 Escape with a V-6. For the last week the rear lift gate and window will not open. Tried the door key and the driver's side door unlocked. Turned the key again within three seconds (according to the operator's manual). The two lights flashed, the remaining doors opened except for the rear gate. I pressed my ear to the gate and it sounds like it is trying to release the locking mechanism. Any recommendations?

I have a 2010 RX 350 and it seems like my support bars in the rear lift gate do not support the gate as it used to be. i have to push the gate up each time I open the gate in order for it to go up all the way. My motor is still working fine. How to change the support bars in the RX? I think those support bars are hydraulic.
