Lexus SC430 :: Wind Noise On Driver Side When All Windows Up

There is a noticeable amount of wind noise on the driver's side (obviously with the top and all windows up). Haven't ridden in the passenger seat so not sure if it's there too.

The top closes perfectly, so I'm assuming it's the driver's side mirror.

Lexus SC430 :: Driver Memory Seat Not Working On 2006 Vehicle

I have a 2006 sc430 and have been having problems with the drivers memory seat although the passenger one works fine.

I have disconnected my batter for 5 minutes, moved the passenger seat all the way forward, heard the beep. Moved the reclining part all the way forward until I heard the beep, and the memory seat for the passenger works great.

I moved the drivers seat all the way forward, heard the beep. Moved the reclining part all the way forward until I heard the beep, but the memory seat won't beep (when you hold set and a number). I even replaced my drivers mirror (didn't tilt down due to bad motor), but that didn't work. Of course, I did redo disconnecting the battery and reconnecting it resetting both drivers seat and passenger seat.

Lexus SC430 :: Thumping Or Clunking Noise Coming From Rear Driver Side Tire

Take a look at the video I recorded with my phone and you can hear a thumping or clunking noise coming from the rear driver side tire. The phone was held upside down sorry!. I'm thinking it's either the brake pads or wheel bearing?

Please try to ignore the wind noises. = Just want some idea so when I take it to a mechanic it would be easier to identify the problem. [URL] ....

Lexus ES 2007-12 :: Driver Side Tire And Rim Started Heating Up

My 2008 ES350 started shaking and the front driver's side tire and rim started heating up. Turns out there is a hanging caliper, which needs to be replaced. That's the cause of the friction and heat on the rotor. I should replace both front calipers, pads and rotors, then bleed the brakes.

Mileage is about 90k.

Lexus GS 2006-11 :: Heating And Cooling System Of Driver Side Seat Doesn't Work Right

I just bought a 2006 Lexus GS300 AWD. Bought it with 99k from a older gentleman who seemed like he took really care of the car. Gave me all type of Lexus dealership service receipts. I recently noticed that the driver side seat heating and cooling doesn't work right, passenger seat works fine. I haven't checked the fuses yet just wanted to get some opinions before getting into it.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Liquid Type Noise From Behind Dash On Driver Side

So I was riding with no music on--had family in from out of town--and noticed a strange noise coming from behind the dash on the driver's side. Hard to describe but almost a liquid-type noise (although not a liquid) and repetitive. Doesn't happen all of the time but happens frequently. Not loud enough to hear over music or even road noise on a highway.

Almost a swoosh, swoosh with sort of clicking. Wish I could describe it better.

Lexus SC430 :: Bubble Formed On Passenger Side Of Dash

So I've recently noticed a small "bubble" forming on the passenger side of my dash above the glove box. What this can be from or what could have caused it. I'm hoping that it doesn't have anything to do the with the airbag recall.

Lexus SC430 :: Driver Side Door Not Closing When Window Is Up

I guess the roof needs adjustment since my driver side door won't close if the window is up all the way.

Checked the roof and found there is a larger gap on the passenger side than on the driver side. That causes the unevenness of the roof, I think.

Lexus SC430 :: 2002 - Top Leaking On Both Driver And Passenger Side

If the top is leaking on both sides by the side top front windows, is that expensive to repair? I think it might need a weather strip. In other words, when it rains, the car will leak on my thigh and or the passengers thigh.

Lexus SC430 :: Driver Side Headlight Flicker For Just A Split Second

Very much enjoying my newly acquired CPO sc430 but there's a strange thing that I noticed: When I go over a short-bump or hit a patch of broken pavement, the driver's side headlight seems to flicker for just a split-second. Sometimes it even seems like the other one flickers too. What that can be? Is it normal for this car?

Also, my car has the dreaded brake-clunk that has been discussed in this forum ad nauseum. Is it worth taking it to the dealer even assuming they know how to adjust the clips and grease the system to get rid of it? How long does the "fix" last? I had a 2004 acura TL that did this from day 1 but only on the initial brake application after starting the engine. The SC does it every time I shift from D into R etc.

Lexus SC430 :: Driver Side Brake Has A Loud Pitched Squeal

I replaced my brake pads and rotors and now the driver's side brake has a loud pitched squeal. It doesn't squeal all the time and if I let up on the brakes and apply them it goes away.

I think maybe one piston is hung up.

How do you free up a stuck piston in the caliper piston?

Or could there be another reason for the squeal.

I installed Callahan slotted rotors and ceramic pads on all 4-wheels.

Lexus SC430 :: Loud Buzzer Noise Behind Dash On Startup

Have had SC430 for over 10 years, 94000 miles. Have loud buzzer sound behind dash on startup or when key is turned to on position. The sound last 10-20 seconds and goes off. I have turned the AC off and tried different modes, no change. Everything seems to be working fine with the AC. Could this be a servo motor, the noise is not coming from the engine compartment. Any thoughts on problem and how to fix it. It makes this sound on every startup.

Reviving my car after long months of long winter storage and I cannot get the door unlocked.

I am just trying to get under the hood so i can jump the car, but no way to unlock the door. It is a 2002 SC430 , is the key supposed to work ? Or does the car need battery for the key to twist and unlock the door?
