Lexus LS 2007+ :: Oscillating Squeaking Noise Coming From Passenger Side Of Dashboard
Recently (last three months really), I've been noticing an oscillating squeaking noise coming from the passenger side of the dashboard on my '07 LS460. I've troubleshot the problem and have it isolated to coming on only when the A/C is turned on (recirculated or outside air- doesn't matter). When the A/C is off, the sound goes away.
No other squeaking noises at all coming from anywhere else on the car.
I have a sneaking suspicion it's related to the tensioner belt connected to the Air Conditioner, but I'm honestly not sure at all.
Might this be a more relatively simple belt issue? A/C is running pretty much all the time when the car is on- wouldn't be surprised at all if we've simply worn the belt through.
I found this link outlining a similar problem, but again- I'm not entirely sure I want to go the route of the full tensioner assembly replacement if it's likely just a belt: [URL] ....
Lexus SC430 :: Buzzing Or Humming Noise Coming From Backseat On Passenger Side
Recently purchased a 2002 sc430 . After an hour of driving I began to hear a buzzing or humming coming from the backseat on the passenger side . Sounds almost like a fan. Car drives just fine but the buzzing is driving me nuts.

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 SC430 :: Noise Coming From The Rear Of The Car
Over the past year I have been hearing a noise coming from the rear of the car. It seems to happen when the car is running and almost sounds like the fuel pump priming itself, but it happens when the car is running. So I don't think it would be that.
It doesn't happen all the time, it might but I miss it due to the loud levels I tend to listen to the stereo at.
My other thought is that it might be from the one of the top motors to raise and lower the roof.
Lexus SC430 :: ABS / VSC Light Came On - Alarm Continued To Beep
Yesterday, my SC430 started screeching and the VSC lights came on. I had never heard this alarm before -- sort of between a whistle and a screech. I was a few blocks from home, so I continued on. I did not notice if the ABS light was on at this time, but I don't think it was, because I would have noticed an unusual light on the dash.
I disconnected the battery briefly, but not 3 minutes, and the alarm continued when I switched the car on. This morning, I disconnected the battery again, this time for more than 3 minutes. Again, the alarm screeched when I started the car and pulled out of the garage. I switched it off, and then back on, and the alarm stopped. I thought I had solved the problem. I was wrong.
Later this morning, I drove to the bank, and when I took it out of drive after visiting the ATM, the alarm started again. It continued until I got home. This time, the ABS light is on, in addition to the VSC lights.
On the way to the bank, I made one fairly hard stop at a yellow light, but I have made far harder stops without any lights -- and especially annoying alarms -- coming on.
None of the posts I have found here mention this alarm when the ABS light is discussed.
I have checked the brake fluid level, and it was full. The car was in a Toyota dealership last month for its 120,000-mile timing belt, and the rear brake shoes and rotors were replaced then.
I have yet to begin checking the fuses, but I don't really think this is the problem. Before I try bridging the post in the computer terminal, I plan to visit the local auto-parts store that will read the computer for trouble codes.
Lexus SC430 :: Intermittent Beep About Every 10 To 20 Minutes While Driving
About every 10 to 20 minutes while driving I hear 5 or six intermittent beeps. No warning lights or anything, just the beeps. What is it? I have a 2002 SC430.
View 7 RepliesLexus SC430 :: Clicking Sound At Low To Medium Speeds Coming From The Rear Passenger Side
I replaced my rear brake pads this weekend. I used oem pads and used the shims with CRC lubricant. I also compressed the brake calipers and made room for the new pads. I also tried to take off one of the rotors but it would not come off even with putting screws in the rotor.
Everything seemed fine and brakes were strong but when I went for a test drove there is a clicking sound at low to medium speeds come from the rear passenger side. I checked the retainer pins and they are on correctly.
What the problem may be? I would like to spin the wheel but the parking brake is on. Is it okay to take off the parking brake while jacked up if I block the wheels??
Cavalier - Chevrolet :: 2004 - Ticking Noise Seems To Be Coming From Inside Dashboard On Passenger Side
I have a 2004 Chevy cavalier with 133,000 miles. For the last week I have been hearing a ticking noise - seems to be coming from inside the dash board on the passengers side (glove compartment). The ticking noise begins when the engine starts up and stops when the engine stops, so the noise is continuous while the engine is running. The car runs well, no loss in power, nothing out of the ordinary, with the exception of the noise. I opened the hood and listen - the sound seems to come from inside the firewall.

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.

I brought my 2011 GS350 in today for the dealer to fix the rattling noise coming from the dashboard after 2.5 hrs of waiting the car was fixed and I drove it to work and the rattling was minimal but tonight after work it was really cold I drove the car home and the rattling noise seem like it coming from the dashboard area near the windshield and the noise was more noticeable than this morning right after i left the dealer.

Lexus SC430 :: 2003 - Rubbing Noise Coming From Pads / Rotor Area?
I put brand new pads on my 2003 sc430 about 6 months ago, and have noticed this rubbing sound coming from all 4 tires. It is very noticeable and annoying. I'm wondering if I should have put brand new rotors on the car while I was changing the pads. I did not here this noise prior to changing the pads.
I'm attaching a link of a video [URL] .....

Lexus SC430 :: 2003 Vehicle Over Heating - Grumbling Noise In The Dash On Driver Side
I just got it and the gauge is showing a little hot. I took it in they found nothing. The fans runs almost all of the time. It even started running when I was sitting in my driveway with it in park (it was about 55 degrees outside at the time). I also hear some grumbling noise in the dash on the drivers side. It sounds like something is trying to work (the radio is off and it still makes this sound).

Ive been hearing some noises coming from the right side of the dashboard when I turn the heat on. Then last night, smoke/steam started coming through the vents with a strong odor. Popped the hood and there is some smoke coming from behind the engine as well. Sounds like the heater core but why the smoke from the engine? Temperature gauge reads as normal and I have no lights on the dash.
