I didn’t think my problem was that bad. It was really the squealing when backing out on a humid morning. That has gone away after the pad and rotor replacement. So it’s definitely worth it.

Has Anyone else done this? I kind of like this idea just for the fact that so many more boxes will work with rails that you can “clamp” on.

You are right. I punched that into ChatGPT. Does sound pretty loud with and without. I’m going to try the without measurement with my watch later at as well interested. 70 dB vs 65 dB = a 5 dB difference. A 5 dB increase corresponds to about 3.16× more sound intensity (power). In terms of...

Is it super noticeable with the wind noise? I never heard it but just going by what a lot of people say I don’t want to waste 300$

100%. The eBay solution was just a placeholder until I could get a system from Thule or Yakima. I don’t love the crossbars from Lexus because supposedly they are very noisy. I don’t have a box on my roof often so I don’t want to sacrifice my creature comforts for the one off I use the box. Same...

Yes this is frustrating. I’ve been waiting for ages on this. Any update from members about alternates? Btw I tried out some eBay rails previously and none of them fit even remotely correctly.

Is this only happening on some gxs? Or is it being recalled for all?

Same experience. And Porsche is first class experience vs this one. But you pay for it.

If you end up deciding to ship, I would be very interested

Correct. You choose lux+ you will get the dynamic roof, digital rear view, power side steps etc. and no option to remove.

Be careful which ones you order. Make sure they specify it fits the gx550. It’s possible you picked the one that is for the “old” GX. I made that mistake and I got a set that didn’t fit as well. I think what happened was that I clicked onto the product page for the GX 550 lights and when I click...

This is actually a good idea. All my other cars didn’t need to have to hit a button to turn this feature ON. I would much prefer the button is there to turn it OFF as I always use it.

It appears that on my lux+ the front windows have acoustic glass. But not the rear windows. You can see the multiple layers on the front and just a single layer on the back. What do you guys see?
