    First Oil Change at 5k instead of 10k

    As above, I paid for my first oil change at 1000 miles. The owner's manual states 600 miles is engine break-in, so I figured it was a good idea. The dealer covered my 1 of 2 complimentary at 5000 miles. I plan on doing subsequent changes every 5k miles.

    Transmission Clunk TSB L-SB-0042-25

    Sorry to hear. I've done a few hundred miles but have not had the same experience as you...yet.

    Transmission Clunk TSB L-SB-0042-25

    I didn't get a fluid flush. I received a firmware flash as that's what the most recent TSB states is the solution. Have you inquired with your service advisor about that?

    Just looked at the new re-designed 2026 GX550

    If the design is the same or similar to the 2024 and 2025 model years, I got used to the shape of the side mirrors quickly and it's neither an issue for me nor my wife.

    Transmission Clunk TSB L-SB-0042-25

    I had very mild downshift jolts. Post flash, all I notice is the 1-2 slight harshness on cold start. Everything else is smooth.

    Transmission Clunk TSB L-SB-0042-25

    I thought it was my imagination. Thanks for confirming the hard 1-2 shift after cold start after the transmission flash. I'm experiencing it, too. Not a big deal, but good to know it's "normal" behavior.

    Fed up with Lexus marketing

    I didn't (and wouldn't) pay over MSRP. Though my car has a few factory options I didn't want, I didn't see any as deal breakers and I actually appreciate them now (HUD). My dealer didn't shove a bunch of unwanted port installed options on me. All in, I'm very happy with the buying experience and...

    GX550 Aftermarket Wheel & Tire Thread

    Thanks. Would love to know more regarding spare when it happens. These are all the same thoughts I have: flush, no poke, more aggressive tire but mainly road use. I'm on a P+, but looking for more rubber than stock.

    This is the setup I want. No rubbing or modifying? Fit a spare easily?

    No Drill License Plate Mount

    Sorry, just saw this now. I insisted with my dealer that they not drill my front bumper for a plate upon arrival to the US and they obliged my request.

    Premium Plus (with minor mods) Capability?

    The recall is for April 2024 and earlier. I have not heard anything on forums or elsewhere that it's affecting current purchases. I personally expect that Lexus will take care of their customers. I have a P+, but I don't plan on doing any off-roading to the level you describe. That said, I love...

    Rear cargo AC outlet won't stay on, any solutions?

    I would suggest to actually go for a brief drive and not just idle while in D. I think you'll find that the outlet will shut off after a very short time period.

    Are you able to fit these in the spare tire well? This setup looks fantastic.

    Will a GX 550 Premium (or Prem Plus) be enough off roadiness for me?

    Yes, the P+ camera allows you to view everything around the perimeter and underneath the car while you are doing around 5mph or less.

    I think this is a scam

    Reeks of scam. Ignore it.
