Hey guys so I have a 1991 Lexus LS400. and recently I noticed that when i drive around from the drivers side there is a annoying rattling/squeaking noise when i drive it, especially. This especially happened during the summer. But now during the witner it hasnt happened so much (i live in NY state, cold winters) But recently i was doing some testing and i found out if i start driving the car hard, (pedal to the metal) and hard braking the squeeking noise comes back again! it sounds like its coming from the glove compartment, but i dont think it is. I've replaced my strusts, my mechanic thought it might solve the problem, but it didnt at all. (they needed replacing anyway so its alright.

any ideas?!? ]]> LS400 CPFMonkey http://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls400/465499-weird-noise-from-passenger-side.html Looking for 1994 lexus lx speedometer http://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls400/465492-looking-for-1994-lexus-lx-speedometer-new-post.html Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:16:08 GMT Hi my 1994 ls 400 speedometer doesn't working anymore.

Seat tilted fine but there was a definite lack of support on the right side , a spongy feel. Once I pulled seat and found situation put bolts in no problem right? Put seat back in and seat will only tilt on the left side then lol had it in and out many times now trying to get it just right and even then it wont recline properly unless I leave those 2 bolts out? From what I have read the seat may be put back together not straight by someone else but I am at a loss as to how to actually figure that out.

Thanks in advance if you can help

Not good, because I have no idea how long it has been broken. I have a 90 LS400 so it isn't digital. I assume either the cable to it broke or the gear on the end of the cable. Only problem is I don't know how to remove the odometer from the dash. Has anyone here ever had this problem before?

Have used PB Blaster, heat and I have gotten the nut off of the bolt, but cannot push the bolt through to get rid of the old rod and replace the new one from the dealer (has rubber bushing in it). UNFORTUNATELY, stuck in my outside Condo Parking lot with no electricity. Any Ideas on how to loosen the bolt away from the old rubber bushing??? Major problem for the past two days and cant get the damned bolt through the old bushing. ANY suggestions would help, like is there any really acidic solution that I could pour on the old rubber bushing to eat it away so that the bolt might push through easier? Thanks for you suggestions and help as this is the 2nd day Ive just been working on that ONE bolt. It is the lower rear strut rod that connects to the knuckle (which I got off easily) and at the other end towards the front of the car, that bushing is connected I believe to the carrier arm, and I cant get that bolt out. ]]> LS400 tyncobb http://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls400/464947-94-lrear-strut-rod-bushing-problem.html Sun Visors - First Gen http://www.clublexus.com/forums/ls400/464876-sun-visors-first-gen-new-post.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 14:06:58 GMT Has anyone noticed that the sunvisors are much too small, and not adjustable fore and aft when placed to block sun from the side?

car is in wonderful condition except for one thing (so far)

when going up or down driveways and when hitting the brakes somewhat hard there is a clunk in the front end. no problems with steering or accelration. i am pretty car savy just not with this one yet. does anyone have any ideas what this could be? ie. something that is common with these cars, a bad bushing, tranny mount, steering component?
