Yes, that’s exactly the sound! I was troubled by it for about two months, and eventually it made me lose all interest in my GX. For a week, I didn’t even want to pick up the car keys because the noise made me so irritated. The methods I shared with you can surely reduce the noise, but I am not...

My noise is happening exactly like yours, it was at the top of the C pillar. The dealer might have wanted to take the whole thing apart to look for suspicious signs of loose screws, I’m not sure. However, even after securing that water pipe bracket, the rattle couldn’t be stopped. Later, I...

I put it behind the bracket to hold it from moving, and also dark tape.

First some complaints: The dealer didn’t fix the problem properly. After removing and reinstalling my headliner, they made a bunch of mistakes that are totally unacceptable for a Lexus: 1. They left out a lot of clips and screws (7 trunk clips + 1 fixing screw). These were hidden under the...

I had the dealer address the rear rattle on my GX today and requested the new ML amplifier TX as the loaner. As a GX550 owner, I must say the new amplifier delivers much deeper bass, a more immersive sound field, and punchy low-end response. However, the active noise-cancelling is a bit too...

Just discovered, I am having the identical issue too 😭

The problem is you can’t order the parts from Lexus dealer. The only chance now is either find a dealer from other countries with the rear fog as standard or maybe eBay

The hardware is different, and if you try putting the GX550h headlight unit into a GX550, the AHS won’t work—you’ll just get a dashboard full of Christmas lights. The reason I believe AHS will come to the U.S. next year is that Toyota has already been testing this technology for many years in...

In China and Japan, yes! Every Lexus with triple-beam headlights (ES, RX, GX, LX) comes with AHS (Adaptive High Beam System). Now that Tesla has passed U.S. regulations for matrix high beams, I believe Toyota will introduce AHS to the U.S. market sometime in 2026. And at that time, I will...

We need more GX owners to report the issue so that Lexus headquarters takes notice and issues a TSB or software update. There’s a fb group for the ML speaker issue. It used to be only for the TX, now TXs got the TSB. We should be the next...

The TSB for the ML system has been released for TX models. When can we expect the TSB for GX models to be released?

Just bought it, build quality is great. Will need to install it after my switch arrives!

I asked my friend in Australia bought it from them and ship to the us, total cost around 574 including shipping.
