    Toyota V35A-FTS Engine Teardown

    Well maybe since our version has less hp and torque we will be safe. That being said , uncertainty has crossed my mind too, especially after dropping 90k+ cash for my Lux+.

    Toyota V35A-FTS Engine Teardown

    Curious to see if Toyota will change their tune. I’m sure they have watched the video. I would think they have performed their own tear downs already,

    Car car nut recommends 5k or 6 months for turbo engines.

    2024 GX Engine Recall?

    Lexus may expand the recall, they may be trying to phase replace the engines and keep the number of vehicles controlled to keep from overwhelming the dealers with warranty work since the amount of Lexus dealers is quite a bit less.

    2024 GX Engine Recall?

    Same here, my lux + build date 4/24, not on recall list. 12 k miles, have done 3 oil changes myself one at 10k via the dealer. No issues except brakes and hood, taken care of via TSB.

    2024 GX Engine Recall?

    It seems strange, mine was built 4/24 but I am not on the recall. I would have figured that the earlier build gx’s would be the ones with the problem. Rather than the later builds.

    2024 GX Engine Recall?

    I bought mine in May 24, build date 4/24 but I don’t have the recall. I wonder how they narrowed down the vehicles? A batch number of certain engines?

    TSB

    Just had my hood fixed just a few weeks ago along with my brakes at the dealer. No issues.

    Snow chains recommendations - 285/70R18

    I think that clearances is the issue. On my 2017 tundra no chains allowed on front wheels but back was fine. By mistake I tried to put chains on the front tires it was next to impossible. Cable type traction devices should be able to work. Strange that no chains allowed on 18 and 22 inch...

    Lexus GX550 Issues

    My 24 Lux+ has been fine, 11 k miles no transmission shift problems. Just had my squeaky brakes and hood flutter fixed. There is still a slight fluttering but about 97 percent better. No electrical problems whatsoever.

    No Cargo Mats in New GX 550 2025

    That was the same in my 2024 Lux +. Went weathertech for cargo area and floor mats

    Stock OT Toyo = Soft like Charmin = Total blowout. What's next?

    Look at the Bridgestone A/T Ascents, good A/T tire, 3 peak rated. I have a set on my GX 550, quiet ride.

    Considering GX550 as first Lexus purchase (Test Drive Impressions)

    Bought my Lux + May 2024 , did a 3100 road trip from Wa state to San Diego and back. It took a little bit to get used to the smaller size, I have a 17 tundra and a 08 sequoia. It’s my retirement car . Still amazed how much stuff you can put in it. Rides great, most of the time in comfort...
