    💵 For Sale New Lexus GX550 Silicone Cup Holder Coaster Liner $10 in 91320

    I think the weight of the ad overwhelmed my iPad last night! 😉. Alls well. Good detail, no one will be confused about what is for sale. 😊

    Features that can be dealer programmed on GX 550? Anyone with a complete “dealer programable feature” list & perhaps what they had done?

    I agree. I believe I turned both of these off last year with my Carista OBD tool and app. I can’t prove it..but at the time it sure seemed to improve the clarity of my non-ML stereo; seems less muddled now. So far I use Spotify with the highest quality settings, all my favorites downloaded to...

    WPF - WINDOW PROTECTION FILM - 6 weeks later - the good, the bad and the ugly

    My experience matches Ctprelude’s. Except I don’t see any difference with my HUD display. I think my windshield protection film was put on in February. At that point I had owned the GX about 14 months and felt I was pushing my luck. I had already filled one small star crack. Since the film...

    Wow! Nice job, looks very similar to what I’m running. But these should be a lot lighter. Definitely have them on my ‘futures’ list. Thank you! 😊 DJ

    “Dealer adjustment”

    That’s pretty minimal, especially if it’s the trim and a color combo you want. And.. if that dealer will delete any PIOs you don’t want then you’re in good shape. In my case, they refused to remove both the OT roof rack and the Lexus rock rails. IIRC.. those 2 total around $2500 or so.

    Jeez, that’s close to perfect for me. And, as many of you have noticed in my pics..I DO like that very, very thin whiteish or silvery ring on outside of the rim. It gives me a slight old school look and breaks up the solid black hole of tire and rim, both of which I prefer. Thanks JHip! DJ...

    What’s the best or recommended way to cut or pop open my oil filter? What do you forum members recommend to do that? I’m willing to sawzall into my next old filter; if so..which direction (orientation) should I cut? Thanks for any tech assistance..advice. DJ

    🛠️ Member Build Overtrail Upgrades

    For our newer members..these are the codes (that my Carista OBD tool shows) after removal of the front and rear AVS components. Again, I’ve never seen anything on the dash, screens or any other apparent ill effects.

    The only codes I saw were with, and inside the Carista OBD tool. Never anything on the dash or screens.

    Suspension Upgrade - ARB/OME MT64 Discussion

    Hi Rocks! Uh ohh…looks like I might be on the hook! 😅 By now you’ve probably read most of my writings, rational, etc. So won’t repeat it all here. But some of this should help our newer forum members. And there are several other members who have also weighed in with their MT64 results and are...

    All around novice—to Lexus, the GX, and off-roading

    Agree. I had to make to add 2 main upgrades to make a somewhat better tow vehicle out of it. Of course, these don’t come free. I had a suspension kit added, with stronger springs to tame most of the bobbing and accommodate the trailer tongue weight. The trailer is 22’ long and about 5500 lbs...

    Gx550 lift for smoother road driving.

    That’s a great looking wheel, really unusual. What is the offset? And do you know what the wheel weight is? TIA. 😊

    Best Oil Choice?

    Don’t blame you. I think I’m probably averaging about 4000 miles at this point for my changes. 1 was at a Toyota dealer, the rest have been at Lexus dealers. However, do consider perhaps every other one roughly at a Lexus dealer so that your records will show consistency for a warranty...
